This scope is just the ticket I needed to outfit my S&W 15/22 rifle. It was very easy to mount and just as easy to sight in at the range. I would highly recommend this scope to anyone!

I bought this for my beater/guest gun. I like it more than the Leupold on my nice gun. I quickly noticed one thing about the Weaver: When you look through the scope, you see a thick black ring around the edge. This is exactly the same as what you see looking through a Nightforce. I did some research and found out Nightforce glass (and other internal parts) are made by the same Japanese factory that makes nicer Weavers, Light Optical Works. So, this appears to me to be the same glass as a Nightforce. I will be buying the Weaver Super Slam soon, and maybe more later. Two other great things about this scope: (1) The low-light capability is pretty amazing. You can see better at night through this scope than you can with the naked eye. If you have a half moon or better, you can easily use this scope at night. (2) The black ring allows you to avoid parallax. I put this on a bypod looking at tree branches 350 yards away. If you move your head around, the black ring gets thrown out of whack before ...

Read an article on the Weaver Scopes and did some further investigation. Read some reviews and the sourced one. Have this atop my Tikka M55 308 and has been a perfect match. Maintains the great balance of the tikka and its performance in the field second to none. I have now ordered a 2.5-7 x 32 Classic V for my Rem 700 in 260rem and a 2-10 x 38 for my Rem 700 in 22-250. I am a weaver convert now teh value for money is great. This coming from someone who would only use a pecar or kahles. Unbelievable scopes but not 6 times better than these.

I liked the first one I bought, so I bought a second one. This scope replaced a (still excellent) Leupold M8-4X (assigned new tasks) on a Tikka T-3 Stainless.

I bought this scope for a lightweight 300 win. mag. Got the fixed 4 power Weaver scope because it has proven foolproof and rugged from past experience. Two shots to zero it after bore sighting and it has stayed there for a month so far. The scope can be mounted far enough forward so it doesn't eat your eye which is nice on rifles that recoil heavily.

high quality, super clear, best value for the money, durable, very simple (sometimes less is more). if you want a magnified optic to bring out better accuracy from yourself and your favorite range or hunting rifle, this is your scope! if you pay more for any other 4x38mm, it's only for a name.

...purchased 2 of these scopes..both scopes are mounted on H&R Handi-rifles....45-70 and .35 Whelen. After ~100 pretty stiff (hunting loads) loads each, both scopes are functioning perfectly. For what it's worth, these scopes are mounted using Burris MEDIUM rings. This setup clears the external hammer on the Handi-rifles.

I've owned Weaver scopes for 30+ years, the old ones are special but the new ones never let me down. My favorite are the classic K series, I don't like variables.
