Spotting Scope Recommendation Please?

[Willieboy]

Guys, I need to do some 100 yard work with an AK47 and a Mini14. At present, all I have is a set of binoculars. Please help me decide what power scope I need as well as brand and model?

I appreciate your help.

You need to state your budget first. Anything will do at that range.

I have the NF straight.

If you are trying to find a decent spotting scope without breaking the bank, Konus makes a decent spotting scope. A Konus 20-60x80mm scope will run you about $230. I use mine for spotting targets at 25 yards when developing handgun loads and can see .30 caliber holes at 300 yards when the lighting conditions are good.

Konuspot 80 is $189 from B&H with free shipping. Very reliable place to order from, been buying camera gear for decades there.

It's a very popular highpower spotting scope.

That's a good deal. I paid $200 shipped for mine several years ago.
