Reviews & Ratings for Nikko Stirling Targetmaster Rifle Scope 4-16x44mm Side Focus Illuminated Mil-Dot Reticle — 2 reviews — Page 1

First: I've been a Nikon shooter most of my adult life (33) and used older Bushnell as a younger kid. Those scopes have always been my go to, for the money. I've never felt the need to spend anything over $500 on glass, to be able to shoot anything I need to do, for varmint, target, or protection purpose.

Initially upon opening, this stands out as well built! The packaging wasn't the best though, I will say that, the scope was resting on a few Styrofoam blocks, and nothing else, disappointing. Needless though, it wasn't harmed and looks amazing. It is very lightweight, for being a 30mm tube, and 44mm objective. The turret clicks are very precise and audible, with a positive unlock and lock. Re-zeroing the turrets, takes about 5 seconds, if you are doing it the first time. Clear glass, except for a little bit of edge hairs as I call them, when you turn on the illumination, you can see the small fibers or particles missed when assembly. I've not put it through paces, as frankly that would be years of testing to come back with a perfect answer. Worth every penny so far on feel, look, and features.

These are great scopes for the monmey. I use this for coyote hunting.Alot of shots are running or moving.Most distances are 150 yrds or less. I get good focus and clear view in sunlight.I own two of these.i also own two other brands of nikko Sterling Scopes. Ihave hunted and or target shoot with all these.
