Same issue as many others. Speed ring and focus ring should not be the same. I can’t use it without my glasses. Called and messaged killer instinct. The hey don’t answer the phone, 3 weeks with no response to messages. Very sad, don’t waste your money or time!!

Upon inspection of this scope once i opened the package, I immediately saw what others complained about. The speedring and magnification are set in one-piece. So if i dialed it up to 415fps the magnification would be between 4x & 5x. I couldn't deal with that feature. I have a Hawke xbow scope that isnt set up like that and it works perfectly. This is simply a bad design. I KI crossbows but this scope i wouldn't recommend to anyone. Spend more money fir better quality like a Hawke or Athlon xbow scope, its well worth the extra $

I have this scope for all the features it has wow cant beat it.It is crystal clear and it does gather light very well in the evenings.I read some reviews on this same scope if I really thought that changing the fps speed ring changes my bolt speed I think I would think about seeing a Dr or something u don't need to be messing with a crossbow u might get hurt.I being very serious about that.I couldn't belive some of the things I read in the revies.I have bow hunted since 1979 im 56 years old now.Its a wonderful sport.This is a great scope in my opinion it really is I have a Vortex and it's good but it cost another $100.00 everone one dosent have that extra money.I understand that bow hunting of any kind has always been on the pricey side.Dont hesitate to buy this scope

Used for hunting. Crystal clear optics. Crossbow hunting on a overcast evening hunt. Because of overcast. It got dark earlier than normal. My target buck came in an with the light gathering abilities of this scope and the lighted reticles. I was able to harvest this buck of a lifetime gross scoring 190 and net 183.
Pros:
- Excellent quality with crystal clear optics
Would recommend: Yes

I bought this for my girlfriend's Barnett Explorer XP370. I was thinking the "Speed Ring" was separate from the magnification Ring and realized I was wrong when I finally got it. So, trying to make due anyway I mount it and begin to sight in and let's just say the manufacturer instructions suck they are very vague,but I've done this before and figured it should be easy. I shot the crossbow over my chronograph and found it was shooting 358 FPS so I set the speed ring and have at it and sight in at 20 yards. Now they say it is calibrated using a 400 grain bolts and I was shooting 415 grain bolts so I would love to know why when the crossbow is shooting 358 FPS why I have to set the dang speed ring for 290 FPS to be able to hit at 40 yards. It should not be off that dang much, now I realize I'm shooting a slightly heavier bolt but it shouldn't be that far off with the speed calibration. Just saying I appreciate the idea of a "Speed Ring" but take it back to the drawing board and work the kinks out of the system first.
Pros:
- The glass is very clear.
- It is adjustable for speed.
Cons:
- The speed ring isn't close to accurate.
Best Used for:
- Whatever you feel you can ethically do with it.

I purchased this scope as an upgrade for my Centerpoint Sniper 370. Clarity is excellent, and compares favorably with my more expensive rifle scopes. The lighted red and blue circle and aim points are great features, enhancing target acquisition, at least for my aging eyes. Scope is easy to mount with plenty of eye relief. Highly recommend.

Awesome scope..... Reticle takes a minute to get used to, but then it's automatic. I'm red/green colorblind and the blue illumination is amazing. Quick zero and no issues holding zero through 50 shots out to 50 yards.

I was using a 3 dot open sight which worked fine, but only up to 50 yards, with this scope I can comfortably shoot out to 70 yards if I have to and the magnification is even better. This scope is surprisingly heavy, but worth the extra weight.
Pros:
- Once sighted in your good for a longer shot
Would recommend: Yes
