Pros:
Great value in a full featured scope. I installed it on my .17 hmr Savage heavy barrel rifle and it performed like combinations costing many times more. I'm shooting 3/4" groups at 200yards. It works so well I've bought another scope for my 22cal heavy barrel match BRNO.
Cons:
Comments:
I'd read negative reports on these scopes but attribute them to faulty and/or inexperienced instalations. You can't just bolt them on the gun and zero using the windage and elevation adjustments. You need to use a good mounting ring like Burris Signature that allows you to get on target BEFORE you start fine tuning with the turret adjustments.
