I have one that came included with a Marauder I had purchased as part of a packaged deal.
I have been happy enough with the overall performance enough that I have considered purchasing another for my Airforce/Dyotat .257 Condor.
I like the ability to focus down to 10 or so yards. I appreciate the optics are fairly sharp and useable throughout the complete range of magnification. The scope holds point of impact very well within its optical center of adjustment. ( I always compensate my scope rings to always achieve optical center) Elevation and Windage adjustments track well, but I don’t recall making much adjustment past a full rotation maybe two revolutions most. The settings very repeatable, however I note that I don’t think that that the detents are a bit too smooth and would do better if the clicks were a bit more positive or clickier. Also the locking rings aren’t super positive and I always feel like they are on the verge wearing out or stripping.
Overall, I like the scope, especially the value or bang for the buck if you shop around for the best price.
Complaints,,,,, not too many but if I were to be ultra critical it would be the weight on the heavy side, at maximum magnification even though the side focus works very well, the eye relief does noticeably change enough that I find myself choking up closer to the scope on my cheek weld. But it kinda occurs instinctively and I hardly noticed it until I had someone observe me doing it. The glass is good but expect some flare when shooting into a westernly direction at sundown. I don’t like that all the scopes these days have the illuminated reticles. I can do without that. I also would prefer a first focal plane style of scope, but I understand the price point increases incredibly.
If ya can find one for the lower to mid 200’s then I would recommend considering it.
My recommendation is based upon a price point just a tad lower than average going street price.
I’ve noticed many great deals even lower that I regret passing up on.
