Great target and varmint scope - Redfield Revenge 6-18x44mm AO Rifle Scope

I have been using this scope on a sporterized GEW 98 8mm Mauser with Leupold QRW steel rings and a Ken Farrell base. At 100 and 200 yards, the optics are excellent and the adjustments are holding after 300 heavy rounds and this gun kicks. At the range, I have stopped using my spotting scope and turn up this scope to 18X. The OA objective definitely improves accuracy by eliminating parallax. The Varmint reticle is great although I wish they would offer a mil dot reticle option to let me do my own ballistics math. I have purchased a second one for a 25-06 varmint rifle being built on another GEW98 Mauser action. The scope is a great value for the money with the only negative being the weight when carrying the rifle in the field.
Pros: OA Objective, varmint reticle, quick zoon and stability
Cons: Weight
