so, i went with the BuckGold SF instead of the Tactical for the 56mm objective. the glass is very clear and the SF works as it should. can't tell much difference out past 200m's but still good and clear. also bought one of the Laser Genetics NDS-3 and got it mounted. the mount could be a little better, moves too much under adjustment. I think for the money they should include the 30mm mount as well as the 1" mount. had to get the 30mm from SWFA and they had the best price on it. just waiting till tonight to see how well it works. here are some pics:
