Best Low-Cost Hunting Optics Under $300

[Alan]

I'm looking for a reliable hunting optic that won't break the bank. Anyone have experience with scopes under $300 that manage to hold zero and provide good clarity, even in low light? I've got a deer hunt coming up and want something durable.

Vortex is the best in that price range right now.

I've been running a Vortex Crossfire II on my deer rifle, paid under $300. It's held zero solid and the glass is clear enough in low light, it is pretty great scope for the price
