Can anyone give me any feedback on these, the good-the bad and the ugly?

All I can tell you about Simmons products is, they have surprised the snot out of me. I was kind of leary of them. Then reading posts by Semisane and others on the Pro Diamond, I figured I would try some Simmons products. The Pro Hunter is the next class of scope up from what I am using. I even have a Pro Sport (bottom of the pole) on a rifle and have not been able to shake it apart yet.
The Simmons Pro Diamond scopes have impressed me so much that I have them mounted on a couple inlines. They have great eye relief, good glass, they draw light real well, and so far have been tuff as nails. I am shooting a 4x32mm and a 2.5x20mm and really like both scopes so far.
I really can not tell you about the Pro Hunter. But if they follow the lines of their less expensive brothers, I would not be afraid to try them. Just check their eye relief before you purchase one. I like 4 inches, I am happy with 3.8 inches.

i have an old 3x9x40 wide angle prohunter on my omega. i must have around 1000 rounds through it and it still works fine. i always think about upgradeing to a leupold or nikon but then i think why this thing works fine. i took a doe this year in the rain a few mins. before closing time at 86yards, if that says anything.

sam209 I am curious.. What if anything did Simmons have for an explaination when you sent these scopes back to them?
I have a $19.00 Simmons 2.5x20 on a Wolverine. Its takes about 100 rounds now and is still going strong. I would have thought that if a scope was going to fail it would have done so by now.
Also, how many rounds do you think you put through them before the cross hairs broke?
