Cleaning out my office and gathering a few items to get rid of I came across an old Tasco 601E Battler rifle scope. I bought this scope from TG&Y in about 1974 to put on an old 87A that was given to me. I never mounted the scope and 35 years later it is still new in the box with papers.
I never really learned to use a scope and still prefer iron sights (although aging eyes may change that). So a couple of questions:
From what I've read Tasco scopes are not top of the line , but were they any good in 1974? Is it just an old cheap scope for a .22 or does it have any value or even worth using?
