Read all the reviews on rokslide, solid scopes. Buddy just got your exact model and loves it. I own 2 credos, one of the best “budget” scopes out there and reliable. Will definitely buy more, they keep the weight down as well.
100%, I’ve ran vortex for lots of fun guns. I’ll miss steel all day if the scope has a hiccup. Hunting I need 100% confidence. And I’ve had to use the vortex warranty 1-2 times a year for the past 6-7 years. Not only mine but for buddies as well. Great company to deal with, but you eventually...

Only time I've actually grouped this rifle. Usually I'm looking for first round impact location, maybe a follow up. Had some wind, bottom left was a sighter. Adjusted and sent 5 more. 18" plate at 976yds. Across canyon but wind was pretty constant.
