Far better than anticipated! - Weaver 6.5-20 x 44mm AO 40/44 Rifle Scope

I don't know why it surprised me that this scope exceeded my expectations. I was less than impressed with another Weaver scope; I guess I didn't have a high opinion of the brand.
This scope has changed all that!
$200 should get you a decent scope, but this is far beyond decent!
Very bright sight picture, I went with the Varminter, and the crosshairs are what I'd have for all my scopes. It's very easy to get on a
400 yd paper target. It's also easy but firm dialing in the obj and the eyepiece, and the click-adjustments are defined and crisp. The range officer where I shoot was skeptical of my DoubleStar barrel because it's chrome-lined. But he took three shots after I got it zeroed and got a dime-sized group at 100yds.
My comparable 6-18x44mm scopes are a Vortex Crossfire and a Redfield Revolution. Is 20x magnification significantly better than 18x?
I didn't expect much difference, but I definitely see and appreciate the advantage.
It doesn't come with any lens coverings, but if you go with Butler Creek, a number 43 (58.7mm) Objective and a number 10 (38.5mm) Eye/Ocular fit like factory.
