I mounted this scope on a Henry Repeating Arms 22lr lever action. I needed a scope that was affordable and simple for plinking and small game, this scope is perfect.

Mounted great on my Weatherby Vanguard 30-06 using a Game Reaper long throw, low mount. The bolt clears the scope fine. Chose this scope based on sacrificing variable power for better optics for the money. Will be used in the piney forests of Texas where 4x should be a good magnification for short to midrange shots. The image appears nice and bright. Overall, I think this is a quality product, the fit and finish are very nice. We'll see what the whitetails think of it in November...

I have a K-4 for my Browning A-bolt 22 LR for the 25 to 50 yard hunting and plinking. This 4x scope is clear enough I can see the bullet holes on white paper at 50 yards and it does sub 1" with good ammo and is excellent for tree rats. I would rate it as good as Nikon or Leupold and Weaver is a lot less money.

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.
