Mounted the scope on my first home built custom rifle and walked it right into the bull with three shots. Have not had a chance to walk it around the block but all is well with what I have done so far. Seems to be very good quality with nice bright and clear optics that were easily customized to my eye...

Had this scope out well past legal hunting time, target and cross hairs were still clearly visible. Tracks well

Mounted the scope on a Savage Model 16 in 204. This is a great scope for the money with very clear optics compined with a great rectile. Zero stop adjustment is easy and the open elevation adjustment makes for quick yardage adjustments. The eye relief does change a small amout when dialing from 4x to 16x. Also the zoom adjustment is a bit stiff when compaired to my Bushnell, but overall this is the best scope I've owned.

This scope is clear and will provide years of use and abuse. Very rugged, well built piece of hunting gear. While it may not be necessary, I do appreciate the fact that if anything happens to it, the warranty will cover it no questions asked. That says a lot about how well constructed this scope is.
