Spotting scope
Could someone recommend a spotting scope? Range about 200 yards/meters. Mostly shooting .308. Price better less than $100.
Please help the wounded store owner who fought off 3 robbers. He doesn't have medical insurance.

I've had good luck with my Winchester WT-6. Natchez Shooters Supply has it on sale now for $139.95.
It is 15-45x with a 60mm objective. I consider that about the upper magnification limit for 60mm, as the larger objective is required for adequate light gathering.
They have the WT-5 on sale for $88.99. It is rated 12-50x, but with a smaller 50mm objective.
There are a number of brand names out there on inexpensive spotting scopes. If you buy one, make sure the dealer has a satisfaction guarantee. Barska, BSA, Tasco, Simmons and Bushnell come to mind.
