[QUOTE="Mike 338, post: 1400973, member: 41338"] I was poking shots at a gong the other day at 500 meters and could see the gong just fine (SWFA 3x15). Just then, a ground squirrel ran up the berm by the target. Target look good. Ground squirrel looked hazy. Could have been the focus and I didn't have time to mess with it. Point being, the scope was great at shooting at a gong sized thing but possibly not as great at a ground squirrel sized thing at that range. That is still to be determined but "entry level" means nothing. If a tool does what you need it to do, then it's the right tool, regardless of price or lipstick. If a tool breaks or is otherwise malfunctioning, that's not entry level either. It's just junk. [/QUOTE]
