At first I was really happy with the scope until I got it out to the range. WIth the parallax set at 100 the target at 100 was not clearly focused. I have to adjust the parallax to 150 before the target became clear (obviously throwing my POI off). I thought that was the only issue till I swapped guns and started shooting my rifle with an 8.5x25x44mm scope (same price). The view through the muller was so much brighter and crisp. I could actually see my hits on the target through the muller where with the Vortex I had to squint and guess. You would think the Vortex's 50mm objective would let in more light but sadly that is not the case. The Vortex comes in 2nd place in my book.
Pros: Good solid click adjustments seems to be pretty robust
Cons: Optics are pretty disappointing, slightly cloudy picture.
