Great scope for the price. You cannot find a comparable scope for anywhere near the price. Easy to use controls. Clear glass. Only drawback was clarity on high power.

Great scope for under 1000. Holds zero. Max Magnification is clear. Illumination has multiple settings very bright on max(maybe to bright). The massive 35mm tube allows great light in low light situations. The retical is real thin as well as the mil dots are very small. ( not really a big deal) Lens covers are included. Only bad thing I have on this scope is that the 35mm rings are not strong enough for larger rifles 7mm .300 338 ext. the scope will move in rings even at a tight 25lbs(not recommended). You can get by with some low strength locktite. But maybe higher quality rings like leupold would be the ticket. They are expensive but worth it. You willnt be disappointed.

I have so far bought two of these. One is on an AR-15, the other is on a H&S Precision 300 Winchester. I am totally floored by the quality for the bucks. Who says you always get what you pay for? Too many scope companies are selling their NAME, not their quality. I see no reason to spend over $1000 on a scope that doesn't do anything more than this one does. Save some bucks and buy a Millett you won't be disappointed!

Great scope for everyone who wants to get into long range shooting. The setup was easy. The elevation adjustment reset knob is a little rigid and does not want to reset easy. Accuracy is outstanding. It dropped my groups down to below 1/2" c2c@100y with my 308 Rem700 SPS Varmint. At the end of the day I was at 0.3" on SMK and 0.36" with AMAX. The reticle is so crisp that I can spot all four sides of a 0.75" red dot bullseye at 100y when I line it up in dead center. That is at x25 magnification not at all common for a scope that costs less than $500. I would suggest this scope to anybody who is sharing their budget with their kids swim/gym/ dance classes. You will have a great day at the range, take the lady out for dinner and still have money to pay the babysitter.

I have it set on an M1A with an ARMS mount and Millett Medium rings, giving it a 2.43" bore/scope offset, and I use a cheek riser. At 100yds I put a 7 round group that I was able to hide under a quarter (yes, 25 cents). Dialed it to 200 it was about double that. Dialed it to 300 and 400, finishing with a grouping that still finished at just barely over four inches, which is awesome for my skill level. To calculate drop, I used ballistic data from shooterscalculator.com specific to my ammo (168gr, 2650fps, .464BC, match grade BTHP) and was shocked at how accurate it was. Not only did my groups stay tight (kudos scope), but the data was remarkably accurate (kudos website). The only two downsides of the scope are that the illumination only comes in green (I knew that going in though) and the knobs can sometimes be inconsistently mushy (it appears to help it to keep those hex screws tight on the tops of the turrets). I can't believe I was able to get this level of quality for this price. The ...

Had the scope repaired as the focus had gone out. Sent the scope in and they sent me a brand new scope in 3 weeks.
