Reviews & Ratings for Weaver Classic V-Series 2-10x38mm Rifle Scope — 7 reviews — Page 1

I put this on my mini 14 because it has a 1 inch tube size and was compatible with the rings that came with the rifle. The scope works great. It’s such a bargain for what you get. I also love the way it looks on this classic rifle.

This is my second one of these, both on centerfire .22's. They are good scopes and seem to hold up well. The end bell diameters are a good fit for smaller rifles while offering the higher 10x magnification.

I have these scopes on rifles ranging from .223 Rem. (Ruger #1)through .30-06 (Ruger #1) and .300 Weatherby (Win. Mod. 70 stainless Classic). The low end is excellent for close range work on varmints to large game, the high end as much as you'll get for a scope this compact, plus if there's any mirage running, more than 10x hurts more than it helps. I have many speciality scopes in other ranges, but this is my general purpose 'workhorse' because it 'does it all'. I have had no problems with any of the seven I own.
Pros: power range, compactness, bright optics
Cons: none

Nice size and good quality, mounted on Ruger 77/22, looks good and provides good performance in a resonable size.
Pros: Size, apperance and quality.
Cons: No problems as of now

Excellant for bush shooting in New Zealand with the low power (2) but having the 10 x power is excellant for longer range shots in the open. Second of these scopes I have purchased and no problems
Pros: Excellant range of mangification
Cons: nil

Being from the "old school" of shooting, large objective lenses are prohibited. Anything larger than 40mm is a no go and I prefer 32mm to 38mm. This lets me mount the scope low to where my cheek naturally rests on the stock. Obviously this 38mm allows me to do the same. Most of you "50mm guys" just don't get it. It doesn't take a large optic to shoot long distances! I was raised with the older generation Weaver scopes and they're were truely tough. Hardcore TOUGH and would take massive abuse. I was a little concerned when ordering my V10 because it has been years since I purchased a new Weaver. I must say I now know that I made a very wise purchase. The 2-10 power range covers any situation that I'll encounter. Please note, my V10 has the Ballistic-X reticle. It gets me on target out to 600 yds. I reload and I load to the specs of the reticle for my caliber. Its a fabulous and practical reticle. As with most scopes, when you learn the subtension measurements, you can estimate on range. I will be buying another one of these scopes to mount on my other CF rifle. And probably a rimfire version for a 10/22. Don't let the relatively low cost fool you.... this scope delivers!!!!!
Pros: Practical, Tough, Low Cost
Cons: None
