This is the second Shepherd Scope I've had the opportunity to use. I've previously used their DRS line scopes and although it's a cool feature, I don't think its worth the extra $500 just to get a true 1 shot zero. Aside from that, this scope has the necessary features of the DRS for half the price with the addition of an illuminated reticle. The construction of this scope is robust and looks to be of quality build. The glass is also good, I've tested it in low light conditions and I can see very clearly. The only thing I will warm about is to not over torque the scope mounts. Shepherd recommends following the ring manufacturers specs in their owner's manual however doing so bound up the parallax adjustment knob (at 18in-lbs). After speaking with Shepherd directly, they recommend not going over 15in-lbs. This should probably be specified in their manual to prevent issues.
