    Take a look through the cheap €30 Aldi spoting, I think it's 20-40x60mm, spotting scope and they will surprise you with how good they actualy are.

    I use a Bresser P90 25 - 75x 90mm, again got in Aldi @€;150. It does the job, not the best a lot of people will say, but I can see the bullet holes out past 600m with it and for that money it's better than just OK. It comes with a tri-pod, camera attachment and carry bag.

    You're right Clive..........I've one of those & am very surprised at the quality of glass & build for the price.

    Definitely does the job if you're not too particular.
