I have this on a Ruger 10/22 and it works great. I can't speak to its durability on a high recoil rifle.

My guess is that it is my fault that I cannot zero it. But otherwise, an amazing scope. Flip up covers are good quality.

This scope is fabulous. I was looking at this one and a more famous name scope but decided on this one. The optics are crystal clear and with an adjustable objective and fine eye focus the sight picture seems as though I'm standing 2 feet from the target. Mounting the scope on my Savage was easy using the included high-rise brackets. I've only fired about 250 rounds (22LR)with this unit but with all the banging and storing of my Savage rifle between shoots this scope holds zero perfectly. My older scope, now in a box on the shelf, cost 3x as much and doesn't compare to this Leapers scope. I'm thinking about buying another Leapers for my Henry.

Pros:  5yds to Infinity paralax, clarity, lite R/G/B/ reticle Mill-Dot
Cons:  Can't always hear or feel windage and elevation adjustments but don't let that discourage you read on.
Would recommend:  yes

Do not let the fact that you can't always hear or feel the windage and elevation adjustments stop you from buying this scope. (I almost made that mistake) I'm 65 and have shot for 50yrs. Mostly competition. Have purchased all makes of scopes. This scope is incredible, Holds Zero under heavy recoil, brightness and clarity is great. Returns to Zero always. Leapers have an ace up their sleeve with the 5yds to infinity paralax. Target is focused and clear as well as paralax being correct at any distance. You cannot go wrong. Not to mention the lite reticle. In all light conditions you can dial in what you need. I would have paid 3 times the amt. for what I've gotten. (ENJOY)

Absolutely could not ask for a better set of glass than this for the money. Mounted it on my Marlin .17HMR and it zeroed easily. Rings are nice, but a little high. Target turrets are awesome. 40mm objective gathers light decently for a sub $100 scope, and the AO is a must-have for me. Illuminated reticle works great for shooting pack rats at dusk. Optics are much clearer than expected. Thanks Leapers!!

Mounted on a .22 maurader w/leapers med.mts. so no recoil to deal with. Gun did fall 3ft on wood surface, but scope remained at zero. With a light on the target at night the ill. reticle works fine(not good for rats). Turrets turn easily,but sometimes you can't feel or hear a "click". Big deal. I had a $20 coupon, so for the price I was sure I could not go wrong. I was right.
