Looking to get an inexpensive one. 20-60X60. Somewhere around $60. Any suggestions?

amazon, but I think you surely get what you pay for in quality. I just got this one and it worked for an afternoon at the range to get ready for opening weekend. Probably not a long term item though. FWIW, my dad has a Bushnell thats at least 35-40 yrs old. solid metal housing, he still uses all the time at the range. he probably spent a good bit in 1980 dollars on it.

What are you trying to do with it? Shooting?

I don’t want to be negative but at $60 I think you would be better served to save longer as I don’t think you will do much with it.

What are you looking to do with it may be a better optics option out there that would meet your budget.

What type of distances are we talking about? What are you looking at? Paper targets? Hits on steel? Hi-Viz splatter targets?

For ~100 yards and less I'll make a recommendation for some Binoculars that fit your budget and work. Plus with binocs is you don't need a tripod and you can use them to glass in the field. This is what I use on our 100 yard range and they work great.

Bought this spotting scope for some range time and a cheap option for glassing here in Colorado. Its held up pretty good so far with a few range trips.

I have those binos. They weigh about 10 pounds. I can't imagine walking around with those around my neck in the field.
