    Surprise, AZ
    Has any one out there used this scope. I know it's an entry level scope but I have heard some good reports about it. I though this forum would have a more realistic opinion of it.
    TIA

    I have quite a few Konus scopes, and you get a lot for your money.

    The 6.5-25x44 has 1/8 MOA elevation and windage. Illumination is blue.

    I dealt with their customer service once and they were very responsive, sending me a brand new scope.

    Bushnell Elite scopes are a bit more, but the glass is slightly better.

    A friend of mine who is a penny-pincher bought one, it is made in China and has adjustments marked 1/8moa. It works but I wouldn't buy one when the same money gets you a super sniper or bushnell 10x.

    edit: these aren't bad I would get one for my 10/22

    I had to use their warranty service for a sweet 17 scope and didn't have issues they swapped it out and sent me a new one

    Your experience seems to match my friends as he has sent in 3 of them. He stopped mounting his as he got sick of sending them in. However he does have one on his 10/22 in which the reticle rotates as he shoots but again he is tired of sending in the scopes. The only scope company that I know has caused more problems for him is a millett.

    I agree but I need more than 10X for my poor old eyes and my wife will brain me if I buy another Nightforce.

    Well I mounted the Konus 6.5-25X44 on my SIG 400 and it works perfectly. Optics are clear resolution is great and tracking is right on. My brother has been using one on hos Remy 308 SPS for 2 years with out a problem. I asked about it just in case he had the exception rather than the rule. Only have 200 rounds or so on it so time will tell if it holds up. The only negative I found is the built in bubble level is useless.
    I have been using the Konus 6-25X50 AO PRO on my 223 Remy PSS for a over year with out any problems as well.
