I think they now use outsourced product. They used to be 100% USA. I don't know how much USA means to buyers in this forum. I try hard to buy USA that's just me.

I would highly recommend them. I have them on AR's and LR's. I have not tried one on the big .338's. I think they would work. A great value but not as versatile as the Night Force.
