Best Budget Scopes for Deer Hunting Under $300

[Alan]

I'm looking for a reliable scope for deer season, but I want to keep it under $300. What budget scopes have you found that hold zero and offer good clarity? I'm particularly interested in options that have performed well in the field.

There are alot of options in that price range. I have found Viridian scope to be on the higher end of the budget scope family. I have several. Presently running one on my msr in 350 legend, I have the same one on my kids Tippmann that they shoot through out the summer.

What kind of distances do you usually shoot from, and what are the hunting conditions like? Knowing that could really help zero in on the best magnification and features you'll need.
