Reviews & Ratings for Simmons ProTarget Rimfire 3-9x40mm FMC Rifle Scope — 2 reviews — Page 1

This is the 3rd scope in the Simmons ProTarget rimfire line I have purchased and this one rounds out the collection. I now own all 3 in their line. I will start with the negatives; this scope does not have the finest optical quality and the objective focus ring and magnification rings are very stiff and not the easiest to manipulate. The reticle is a bit on the thick side but completely usable. However, for the price the optical clarity, the super positive click adjustable turrets and the BDC (.22lr & .17HMR) are great. I am a believer in this line and wish that in the future they include it with a .22 WMR turret...anyone listening Simmons? Are there better options on the market?....sure but they cost twice as much or more and when you own as many rimfire rifles as I do these are a great budget choice. I have been shooting and handloading for 30 years please believe me when I say these scopes are a fantastic value.

I bought a Vortex Copperhead 4x14x44 scope for my .22 magnum rifle. It works, but is not as bright, and definitely not as sharp as this scope, which is $90 less. I will be returning the Vortex. Both of my Simmons scopes work well on my rimfires. They are quality units and I love the replaceable turrets. I have 4 scoped rifles (Nikon, Cabelas, Simmons, and Vortex). The Vortex was the most expensive at $150 and all the other scopes are better.I am really happy with Simmons. I would buy another in a heartbeat.
