Re: Tasco Vs BSA
Tasco made the original Super Sniper 10x riflescopes. Until they got shitty they were awesome. The SWFA SS10x42s are built to original Tasco specs. BSA can suck it.

Re: Tasco Vs BSA
A turd is a turd is a...well, you get the idea. Neither are capable of being polished. Both have the same, ripe odor. It is basically dead even in my book, but I will say that Tasco has produced a couple of acceptable optics over the years (including their 6-24x Target scope which actually has repeatable, reliable adjustments and works pretty well on your average rimfire).
Thus...my vote is for Turd 1.

Re: Tasco Vs BSA
Tasco only had the rights to sell the Super Snipers, they didn't actually make them. And no, they have never been built by Hakko.
Since the Super Sniper was not made by Tasco, I elect to not even place my vote on this one. So my vote is to go with none.

Re: Tasco Vs BSA
My thinking was which one is the bigger turd. I figured it was turd 2. From reading the responses, I almost think it might have been which turd would you buy.
I could be wrong. Dogchit me to lyin.

Re: Tasco Vs BSA
The only important difference I can think of between two turds would be if you had to eat one. In that case, the less turd the better. Otherwise, a turd is a turd.

Re: Tasco Vs BSA
Tasco has actually produced some useable scopes in the past.
BSA seems to have some interesting features on the new scope, but I have not gotten to kick one in the dirt yet.

When comparing shit to shit it really doesnt matter. As long as it washes off the hands after handleing

Re: Tasco Vs BSA
I had one of the first BSA "silver" editions I think was the name of it paid 40.00. So far it has done ok on a 22-250 hunting rifle. Later purchased the Contender and it didn't even last a year before the reticles twisted somehow... I also have the SS 16X42 and it is awsome for the price beats the others hands down. Only negative is shooting in low light conditions being a fixed power..

Re: Tasco Vs BSA
Actually I've got a 20 year old TASCO 6-20 world class on an equally old Savage 110 FP .223 that has taken thousands of Prairie dogs. Still tracks well and I still use it on occasion. I had a 3-9 TASCO that did not last an ELK season about 22 years ago.

Re: Tasco Vs BSA
IMO the only ones that were worth anything were the early ones made in Japan. I am still using one (3-9X40)on a SIG 522 and befroe used it for many years on a Colt SP1.
