Reviews & Ratings for Konus Konushot 3 3-12x40 Rifle Scope 30/30 7235 for Shotgun Rifle Scope — 4 reviews — Page 1

This has an engraved reticle so it won't move with recoil and it has a BDC reticle for holdover at longer ranges on a centerfire, but not needed for a smallbore.

I get a bit fed up of PRC Made in China jibes. I've got Calloway Golf Clubs that are high quality and Made in China. It's just a fact of world trade now that major manufacturers assemble in China as much for capacity as cost reasons. I remember looking wishfully at costly variable scopes Made in Japan in the 1980s that I couldn't afford.
