Update on shepherd 1-8×24 - Shepherd Scopes Rugged Series R-MIL Illuminated 1-8x24mm Rifle Scope

The scope is the same as the primary arms 1-8, vortex strike eagle 1-8. Just different features. Glass is decent overall. No it's not ED OR HD glass which reduces chromatic aberration at high magnification. It's just glass that's fully multi coated. The optic is manufactured in China. The scope loses clarity at 8x magnification and has noticeable chromatic aberration at 8x. You'll notice lose of clarity as well as a bluish, greenish, grayish tint when looking at like trees from a distant. The average shooter won't notice. But when you've bought Japanese or German made optics with premium lenses. It's hard to go back to cheaper glass because it's not the same. Overall great scope and glass for an eye that hasn't seen HD glass before. If they had stopped this scope at 6x or used extra low dispersion glass it'd be amazing. You don't notice the flaws of cheap glass until you start going higher magnifications.
