Bought it at a recommendation on an air rifle forum. The scope is durable with a magnum rifle after a few hundred shots. Suprise that there is no rating on this scope. The price is a bargain compare with others.

For the price, this is a pretty decent scope. The mil-dot does appear accurate at 10x. I'm using it on a Ruger 10/22; not sure that I'd bother on a higher caliber. The glass is a bit darker than I expected at 10x, but managable. Having target turrets under the turret caps is nice. My biggest issue with the scope is the eye relief. There seems to be a very small margin of play, unlike most of my other scopes (granted they all cost at least 4 times more). I have to be in a very exact position on my cheek rest to take a clear shot. If I were going to do any sort of competition with the rifle, I'd probably pick something else. For regular plinking though, it's fine.

Great scope for the money, sharp and responsive. 2.5 x 10 power is a great all around power range. Minimual point of impact shift through range with 5.56 x 45. The scope covers that come with the Tasco scopes are marginal. Buy a set of Butler Creek covers that meet your needs.

Bought this scope on a whim. Price was great for all the features offered. Sighting in was a breeze and it's dead on at 50 yd range, My friend at the range liked it so much he bought one for his 10/22 . Same results.

Does the job on my rimfire. Mil dots work great as holdovers when sighting in at 50 yards and shooting at 90;
