is this scope above average

As long as you don't remove it from your rifle it is an outstanding scope. Stays centered after 500 rounds and multiple casings of my rifle. But if you choose to remove it you will have to recenter it as it doesn't stay true once removed.

for the money--yes. You can hit well up to 100m. Still made in china...Primaryarms has some good ones, too

For the money, it's a good buy. I put 200 hundred rounds from my AR-15 and it held up, right on target.
1735601
Yes. It is light years above the other cheapies. I've used it for over a year now. It's durable, clear optics, user friendly. It also looks solid. Just buy it.

Depends on what you consider 'average'. I bought one...and love it. Reasonable cost and very good quality, in my opinion.

This scope is serious zoom power. I have it on a 270 remington 700. Use it to shoot long range. An average rifle shot at game here in new mexico is 2-400 yards. Even 5 and 600 sometimes. The scope is pretty overkill for anything closer than 200. That being said, it's am awesome scope!

I don't know. I only had this scope mounted on my rifle for 1 day, when I saw a metal flake in the objective lens that kept moving around. I sent it back 3 weeks ago with a $25 inspection fee and haven't seen it since. I strongly urge you to consider another scope.

I honestly am not sure. I am not an expert on scopes. Sorry I couldn't help out, sir.

Jerry, I would say something like 85%-90% as bright but very clear. Not exactly the same but very clear and bright just the same. You will notice a slight spherical aberration just at the very fringes of the lens but only when you sweep it which is typical in my experience for these types of scopes. If I didn't dislike the Burris reticle so much I would have likely gone that direction but these scope are very nice for about half the price. I don't think you will be disappointed in comparison to Burris or other similar levels of scopes. I have several Burris hunting scopes and have looked through MTAC which is definitely brighter but not hugely different. Jerry, I would say something like 85%-90% as bright but very clear.

This scope is good for the price and you will not be able to see the planets as you might with the professional ones. It is great watching the land marks and the moon. I hope this helps.

I purchased it for my friend for the same reason and you can see a good 200 yards with this clear even with inflated off. If you want to look in thick brush and have an eye for what you are looking for this is perfect. Out friend a hunter as well has asked to use it for the sMe reason and went and bought himself the same model. Hope this helps. Ps no clouds spots or grainy ness to the scope at all its perfect for those not looking to spend thousands of dollars.

I really don't know. I mean, it is a small scope. Looks nicer in picture. Its junk. Just don't buy it, trust me. I looks cheesy, and works poorly. You pay for what you get

When I contacted the manufacturer, I spoke to one of the engineers who admitted that although the parts are from China this is a high quality scope with the reticle in the first focal plane. In short FFP. I noted at high magnification, I had near zero distortion at 200yds. I still shot <1/4" MOA. That is to say, at 200yds, I put bullets through holes.

I actually purchased this optic to see how it compared to the Eotech 512. For an economy optic it seems top notch. I tend to mount my optics a bit further back but even with the magnifier attached it didn't seem to have any eye relief issues. At the end of the day this is a reflex sight and even with a magnifier there shouldn't be any relief issues. Having said that the only real issue I noticed was a very small loss of field of view. It is minor but likely is the result of the magnifier threading into the housing not around it. Overall this is a solid optic at an economy price and should serve you well.

Good question, this unit has a zoom lens with an objective much larger than most hunting scopes. Not only much more light but your getting 20 to 60 power with the lens. If your using this for long range like in the Western States or areas in Penn. you need to think about a quality stand because of the wind. Best of luck with this. I have several in all sizes. you will be pleased..

I would recommend this scope. I use it on a .308 and it holds under a 1 inch group at 100. I've also shot out past 400 and had equally accurate results. The reticle is very crisp and the magnification covers a good range.

This is A heavy scope with a less than perfect center go gravity. I am using an alpena plastic with a fairly wide footprint. It's barely enough. It's plastic. it wiggles a lot when you focus or zoom. Do you own this scope now? Are thinking stars or on the ground. I would not recommend ultima 80 for astronomy. Blue shift issues. Works fine on the ground.

Yes it is, I find it very comfortable to use. Why they don't put right angle finders on Scopes as a regular feature I have no idea. I cant live without mine.

It is a low grade scope so don't have high expectations. It's a good scope for a 22 caliber but nothing more

Yes, it is. This is a wonderful scope and serves it's purpose perfectly. I hope you enjoy it.

The image at 1000x is dark and fuzzy. It does go that far but image quality is not that great, but for me, as a mere hobby, it is acceptable. It works best at the lower magnifications. It is still a very good scope for the money.
