it's no Leupold, but I think they are probably the best of the Chinese scopes. I have a new MOA3 reticle FFP I can part with at cost if interested.

I have had one for several years on a varmint .22. It has been a good scope for what I use it for. No complaints.

Looking to scope a .222 Remington. Seems like a good option. Do you dial it much? mtmuley

I have 2 buddies that have a bunch of guns and are long range shooters. Both highly recommend them even though they both own the very high end stuff. I bought one last year, no complaints.

Can't speak for a new fancy AO kinda scope, but this Sightron straight 6 has sat atop my ugly old silver Model 70 LH .270 for about two decades. Believe me or not - I have never had to re zero, ever.

mtmey: I have dialed it as it sits atop a customized CZ varmint that is scary accurate and I like to "stretch it's legs" occasionally. It has perfomed well.
