DESCRIPTION




Good Spotting Scope fo the Money
I bought this scope for sighting in my hunting rifles. I normally sight in at 100 yards, so this scope has all the range and resolution I need.
If you need the clarity of Nikon or Leupold, this scope might dissapoint you. Also, the construction is good, but it feels light, and I would hate to drop it.
Still, I was able to see very clear detail of my shots on papere at 100 yards, so this scope does everything I need it to. Also, it shipped with a nylon soft case, a small tripod, and a hard aluminum case.
Overall, I am very happy with this scope. If you're looking for a nice servicable scope at an attractive price point, give the Larsak Blackhawk a look.

Pretty good scope for the price
This scope is pretty good for the price. The one thing that's a bit hard is the eye relief - you have to get pretty close to the eye piece. If you wear glasses, this makes it a bit harder to use. I did find that if you remove your glasses, the eye relief is not a problem and the clarity is still excellent. I have used this scope for multiple purposes. Hiking as well as at the range and it has worked very well in both cases. The tripod is a bit light, but I have another sturdier unit that I use with it. I like the hard case as the quality is very good and can hold other items as well.
Overall, I like the scope and would recommend it.

Great scope, great package at a great price
I bought this scope to zero in my AR-15 at about 100-yards. It worked well, and I can see my bullet holes up to about 150-yards. Beyond that, I can focus on my target, but struggled to count the number of bullet holes. This scope is great for the $109 price, especially with the extras you don't get with the more expensive brands. And it held up well against my friend's expensive $450 Leupold (that he got without a tripod or hard case). Unfortunately I needed something strong (good up to 300-yards), and returned this scope for the Barska Benchmark 25-125X88 for $15 more.
My advice, pick the magnification power that fits your needs and expectations. Then compare prices before comparing brands.

Great start for those in need of a decent spotting scope
First off, good value for the price. The contents included are more than some of the competition. That said, the included tripod works fine although it isn't the best quality, it is quite sturdy and does the job on a bench table or tabletop. The scope's quality is good, optics are a 3.5 out of 5. I purchased this scope for the range and it was worked fine for 300 yards. I haven't had the opportunity to test it out at a range with more distance. The starting 20x is definately too much for close distances, so if you are thinking about using for close distances in the 5-15 yard range, I would look at another scope with a smaller starting magnification. The included hard case does a great job, it has plently of room for the tripod (if you unscrew the handle), scope, and extra items as well.
Overall I like the scope as it did what it was suppose to do and it didn't cost enough to make you think twice about your purchase.

Bought for a gift
I got this for my husband for Christmas. He thinks it's wonderful. I didn't know what I was buying but I read the other reviews for this item which helped me make my decision to buy this scope. So, I can only say that my husband says it's a really good scope. 2009-01-14
