If you have a fixed carry handle this is the scope for you. You can't believe how small it is until you see it attached. Mounting took about a minute, just line up the holes and screw it on. They said it was zeroed, but I was so high at 100 yd that I had to bring it back to 50 yd, and it was still almost off the paper. Once I dialed it down getting zeroed at 100yd was not a problem.

As an aging 55 year old shooter who wears # 200 reading glasses, I was concerned the crosshairs/aiming point would be blurry when not wearing them. To my delight, the aiming lines are PERFECTLY CLEAR as is the target area. I'm also really pleased with the fact there are no batteries, and no need to twist dials to achieve bullet drop compensation. The way the lines change from black during daylight hours to red at dusk is perfect for all scenarios I can think of. The case, lenspen and scopecoat are also a nice plus. I'm considering the Ta55.308 for my Springfield! Thanks, Jay
