Larry J's Review of Shepherd Scopes Rugged Series R-MIL Illuminated 1-8x24mm Rifle Scope

A previous review I gave this scope a 1 Star due to being unable to focus properly. I had mounted a Larue QD on it which I use on nearly all my scopes. Larue says to torque to 30”lbs which I did. This apparently over torqued the frame. After I removed the mount because I was going to send back I noticed indentations around the scope. And now it is clear! I finally looked at the shepherd manual and it says to torque to a maximum of 20”lbs. So luckily for me it seems to have cleared up because I voided the warrantee by over torquing it by their specs.
Pros:
  • Clear and good options overall for the price.
Cons:
  • Frame is weak. Cant torque to some manufacturers mounts specs such as Larue. DO NOT GO OVER 20 in lbs. It will damage the frame.
Would Recommend: Yes
