Feature-wise, this Millett scope is truly a great deal for the money. Beside solid optics, it has lock rings and parallax adjustment, all really handy in the field yet often missing from much more expensive riflescopes. Compared to other scopes I have, this is probably the best bang for the buck.

I got to say I was pretty impressed with this scope. I was always told to stay away from the "cheap Chinese scopes" but this one might be in a league of its own. Im just getting into long range shooting and felt I needed more then what my Nikon Prostaff BDC hunting scope had to offer. Im not an expert on optics but I can honestly say that this scope, for the price and features, blows away the Nikon Prostaff I sold to get this scope. I would say the clarity on the scope matches the Prostaff which I feel already has good glass for the money. The scope is bright and clear on all powers, even up to 16X the scope is clear enough for me. The turrets clicks are very responsive and while all the knobs on the scope were real tight when I first receiving the scope, they have smoothed out after twisting them around a bit. I see a few negatives on the scope that by all means do not detract from the overall value of the scope like the dust caps that came with the scope that feel a little cheap and flimsy ...

the outer packaging is quite nice, durable and attractive, however upon unboxing my Millet I found the internal packaging was quite lacking. In fact my scope shifted inside the package enough that it crushed my sun shade into an oval shape ruining it completely. The scope itself survived all this shifting without a scratch and two phone calls later I had a new sun shade on it's way in the mail! I've taken the scope out to the range only three times so far and it has held zero just fine and I am able to adjust for varying distance without problem. For the money, this is a great scope. You will be hard pressed to find a better scope for under $500!
