First Swarovksi I've purchased and really a very nice scope. The field of vision is quite large as would be expected, and is way brighter than that of the Leupolds I've used previously, and on a par with a couple of Zeiss scopes I have.
Even with the 52MM objective size, the scope clears a varmint weight Remington 700 barrel with ease with Talley high mounts, and might even clear with medium mounts.
The BT reticle is very easy to use, however it would be nice if it had more than 3 marked adjustments. For example, if the scope is sighted in for 300, 400, and 500 yards, a 600 yard shot requires you to count clicks versus just selecting a marker. Not conducive to quick shots.
Amount of eye relief is good, I mounted the scope where it looked right, shouldered the rifle, and everyting was correct.
Fit and finish are what you would expect on a scope in this price range. Included with the scope is a scope cover with see through ends, a nice touch since you can glass with it without removing the cover.
Pros: Crisp and clear, large field of vision
Cons: limited BDC adjustments
