This would be a better deal and leave you some beer money.

I'd hold off another month and go back with $300. That extra $150 puts you in a whole new class of scopes.

Check out optics planet . They have some great info on choosing a scope, basics and all. Use their search engine to find the best bang for your buck.

I think these guys are in Red Oak Tx

Here is similar, but cheaper alternative for a beater scope.
Center Point 1-4x20 at Academy Sports. Only $80.
So far for the price paid, i am happy
