 Not rugged enough June 23, 2010
A. Williams (Colorado Plateau)
This is a nicely finished scope, that impressed me when I received it, and it appeared to be a good value for the money. However, after my very first trip to the range with it mounted on my .223 rifle, the reticle control rheostat knob became so loose as to almost fall off. It was no longer possible to change the brightness setting of the reticle.
This scope is just not rugged enough for the real world. I have returned it.
 Can't go wrong at this price! :) June 4, 2010

I got this scope for my flat top AR-15 and have just got back from the range after putting 200 rounds through. I mounted the scope to an NCStar quick release riser, which then goes on the top receiver rail. As this scope has long eye relief (4 inches+), it is also handy if your riser extends forward a bit (as mine does); I found the best position for it was the NC Star riser to the front of the receiver rail, then the scope to the front of the riser rail. YMMV, but if you are like me and tend to get your head forward for a decent cheek-weld, you'll probably want to do the same. No chance at all of this thing ever hitting you in the eye, it really does have a ton of eye relief!
Zeroed it in at 100 yards - it was way off for a start, but quick and easy to adjust. Once zeroed, off a bipod, I shot three 20 round groups and was able to put on average 15 of 20 rounds onto a 3 inch target patch, each time - excellent (using 6x or 9x zoom)! Zero appears to be holding well, but we shall see next time.
If there is a downside (and I find its the same with all these cheapie scopes), the 1/4" adjustments do NOT mean 1/4" :) You basically have to trial and error crank those dials to adjust your point of impact. Precise it ain't but once on, you are on and I found that it even held zero fairly well when zooming through the range all the way 3x to 9x.
It was very side-windy and gusting today, so I did not bother stretching the distance out further - will do that next time out, but very happy so far!
Nice scope June 1, 2010

Delivered quickly and in good condition. Mounted easily on my AR and sighted in without a problem. Make sure you Loctite all the screws (I forgot two and had to start over). Held true through 200 rounds of mixed Remington .223 and FAE 5.56 55gr fmj. I especially like the compact size, clear field of view and easy access to adjustments. Like the scope covers the least since they introduce significant distortion but for the money this is perfect.
Great scope that I feel is underrated. May 15, 2010

I picked this scope up for my S&W M&P-15 and couldn't be happier with it. I slapped it and had it pretty much zeroed out within 10-15 shots. On a windy day,I can still hit 3-5 inch groupings from 50-100 yards out, which is pretty good. So,if you're looking for something to give you just a bit more range and can't afford some of the bigger names in the rifle scope world, I'd recommend this one. It comes with everything you're going to need to mount it, either for a picatinny rail or sks, which is pretty cool. The optics are clear and crisp, the illumination is nice and adjustable which you won't find on most scopes under 100 dollars. My only advice would be use some lock tight for the upper mounting screws, especially if you're going to be using this on larger caliber. So, what are you waiting for? Pick one up, slap it on and get to shooting!!
Best scope for the money and for starters. May 9, 2010
Mortal Kombat (Texas)
I just got this scope. Mounted on my Bushmaster M4 without any difficulty and I was able to test the optics. Zooming in and out of the target is good. Eye relief is also not bad. I am taking it to the range shortly and test how quickly and easily it zeroes in. Overall I am very happy with my purchase and do highly recommend this product to anyone who is starting out in the RifleScope world.
