have had this scope for a couple of years,but first mounted it on 10=22 ruger last week. on first fire the reticle started rotating inside the tube..i will be returning this scope to bsa and see how they handle this. otherwise i think it would be a great scope for the price IF it functions properly

This scope is fine for 50 yard shots. I would not shoot 100 yard with it. Also don't use a split base to mount. The scope is pretty short.

i love this compact scope... the paralax is easily set by removing the objective screw... set the distance.. and tigtening it... just take less than 5minutes to set for my short-medium distance on SHARP ACE air rifle... so far it perform very well and nicely hold the zero... the optics is nice enough for the price.. could be better, but for the price its perfect and really loveable... very nice riflescope!

Former Marine expert, Coast Guard weapons instructor. Using scope on .22 Marlin Papoose stainless. Can't get tight group with hyper 22s. Hi vel a little better. Same ammo through other 22 scopes puts all in a quarter at 25 yds. I think there may be a slight focus/parallax problem with this model. Still, for the money, a good enough scope if you don't expect extreme accuracy.

I have purchased two of these scopes and plan to purchase a third as soon as my new deer rifle arrives. Constant magnification means quick target aquisition. And the 2.5X is perfect for eastern deer. The light weight doesn't add a whole lot to overall weight of the firearm. One very important thing: this scope is a LOT less than others in the same catagory! That's why I can afford three.
