As the title says, I'm just looking for a budget standing spotting scope (not rifle scope). I shoot .223 and 22lr at 100 yards. I 'might' do 200 yards someday, but not more. Been thinking something basic like Simmons from Walmart/Cabelas, etc. I've seen for $60-$80.
Amazon had some Emarth that sells well: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B010FAUJ46/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_2?smid=A1NIEONOUXU8K5&psc=1
I'm leaning toward trying the Emarth and return if not visible. Anyone have recommendations for something you can see the holes at 100 yards without spending a ton?
Also:
I've seen some threads, but nothing more recent.

Also:
- Decent eye relief so you don't have to take off shooting glasses? Can that be had for less than $100?
- Any ideas of 'cheaper' stands than a typical tripod. I'd love to be able to tilt it 90' on it's side so I can use it prone without getting up to look down in it. But not looking to spend $300 on a scope stand.
- What do you prefer, angled or straight eye piece?
