I needed a scope for my .450 Bushmaster to hunt wild boar in very dim light. It needed an illuminated reticle, huge objective, and medium magnification for targeting hogs at 50 to 150 yards. I mounted the scope on my rifle and tightened the ring screws. The rings are high enough to clear the floating forend, but upon firing the first round, the screw holding the front ring went PING and broke clean in two. I replaced the cheap rings with steel ones, and zeroed the scope perfectly on the next 2 shots. Then moved to 50 and 100 yards, and fired another 60 rounds of the massive .450 Bushmaster. The scope held zero and tolerated the recoil beautifully. My shoulder didn't fare as well!

This is an excellent scope for the money!!! This scope gathers a lot of light. I have another scope that I paid almost $700.00 fpr and it gathers as much light as that one. Great scope and I now own 4 of these.
