Great clarity for a good scope

So far, I like the clarity of the glass in all lighting conditions. The illuminated reticle is nice against darker backgrounds, even in full daylight. The reticle is very easy to see and use, and I like that the zero stop is all brass and easily adjusted. It is a bit on the heavier side, but to be expected in a scope with a 56mm objective and larger 34mm tube. Mounted with Seekins rings, i have no complaints and hasnt budged on 7mm rem mag. With about 100 rounds down range so far, I can say I am a fan.

Punches above its weight class.

Used this for my Cheeto fingered Bergara build. There are numerous scopes available that are considered superior. They may well be - but I'm not a good enough long range shooter to think about a Nightforce or the like. This scope outperforms me. I know that I cannot shoot to the limits of this scope, and I suspect that's true of most of us. Buy this. It's great. Save some cash.

Best Optic for the price

This optic is my favorite for this price range. The turrets are very tactile. The glass is crystal clear. The parallax adjusts down to 25yds. The illumination has off settings between each interval. It came with a throw lever, sun shade, flip covers, and glass wipe. Very good for both casual and experienced shooters.
