[QUOTE="nksmfamjp, post: 2598263, member: 1951"] I hate to pass judgement, but somebody waiting until August to pick up a cheap scope for rifle season is hard to take serious. They are likely a 50-250 yd shooter, less than an hour from the box store where they can get another. Frankly, I buy most optics from Black Friday through year end due to pricing. I mount over the winter and try to get load development done before April when it gets hot. Then in August, I start thinking about running that load out to 700 or so. vortex diamondback hp 3-12x42 - These scopes are clear and bright for the money. It is surprising. - Get the BDC reticle, I’ve shot successfully with those. - The turrets worked well sighting in, but I never tried dialing. SWFA SS 10x42 - It works - It dials - Good enough reticle [/QUOTE]
