  1. i have that same mount, its crap, only way it holds zero is if you tighten it to the breaking point with red locktight. and redo all that after about 50 rounds. it ended up in the garbage. worthless… love this scope though. just would not recommend anyone get that mount

  2. Looking at this for an AR. Sportsmans Outdoor has them for $90 shipped. I have a couple of Nikon BDC I like and this is much cheaper. I am going to get one. At this price it's hard to pass up.

  3. I bought the scope after watching this review it did not hold up.
    The top adjustment nob started coming apart and does not stay on target at 100 yards

  4. This is the kind of review I like, straightforward,…and no BS,… I am in the market for another scope, and as I have this one's little brother for my .22LR I thought I'd look it up. Then I found your 2014 video on this very one,..I like what you have said, so I subscribed to your channel too.
    Thanks for the help.

  5. Good video, enjoyed it.I have the same scope in 4.5-18 on my AR and I agree. It's a solidly built scope with hard to beat eye relief and better than average clarity even at 18X. I zeroed it at 100 yds on a bipod, not a rest, and still got 3" groups with cheap Tula ammo, which is darn good for a budget AR build.

  6. subscribed to your page, am currently building a AR for my wife, and have been going nutz trying to figure out what optics I would use, if you reply and say you still have not had any problems with the scope I think I have found my huckleberry
