Looks like the same Chinese junk they sell at gun shows. Might work for a few days but I wouldn’t trust it to hold zero or track right. The word sniper on the side is always a red flag.

 

[TheHebrewHammer]

Any company that sells that kinda stuff isn't worth your time.

 

[levi8599]

If that’s your budget look at vortex, Athlon, or swfa

 

[TicTacTex]

These are sold at a booth at my local gun show, and while I've never used one, just by looking at them and handling them, you'd need to put a nickel in the box and throw it in a dumpster just so you could actually say you threw something away.
I'd stay far away.

Agreed with Levi, if you're going to spend several hundred on an optic, there's a handful of good options currently listed in the PX right now.

 

[BIg_John]

Opted for this dude.......

 

[BigJohn141]

An extremely better option for the money

 

[HousePlant]

Alright... know what... someone use this at a PRS match. I gotta see that.

I have one of there scopes. It is there upper end scope. I have had it on a 30-06, it zeroed well and never lost zero. It is now on a 458 socom have taken several deer with it. Is clarity and light transmission is as good as any I have seen,including a a high end Zortex and Smith and Bender. I took a shot when they first came out to put on a 223, worked well on it too. The glass is as clear as any I have seen. If it will hold up to a Socom I think it will work on about anything. That from experience with using one .

^^^^^^
That my friends is how you step into the world of Snippers Hid.
No introduction, just a glowing report on the next up and coming opticks cum penny.

Sure to please, and beats the pants offa them established brands like bArken, Smith and Blender, Knightwhores, Trashco, Birdpiss, Bushswell, Zlice and Sav, uh Swor, um, Sikorski.

 

[Strongbullit]

I am not saying they are better than the big name scopes but as far as the one I have it is not trash either. I could pick up images after I could not see at all on a cloudy evening, (but before legal sunset, disclaimer). Everybody knows you can't hunt after sunset.

 

[Mike Casselton]

You're not  SUPPOSED to hunt after sunset. Or did you mean after dark?

BTW, most States allow for 1/2 hr before and 1/2 hr after sunset with big game.


@Strongbullit you had it man, on a silver freaking platter.
You should have left people thinking you were having a bit of fun.

Then you went and got all honest about your thoughts on the scope.

I creeping up on 70 I pretty much call it the way I see it, I gave up on depending on big names. I have tried some cheap stuff and been pretty disappointed. But this one worked out. Barsquat wasn't one that worked out but I didn't have a crap load of money in it either. I have made that mistake on one of the big names and it was crap and I was out a bunch of money.

Do any concrete work in the off season by chance?

 

[Strongbullit]

Tis is one of my fun guns, what do you think of the scope on it.

Nope, I spend all my spare time reloading and shooting. Had a knee replacement recently can't get down to do concrete.

Can someone link me this thread? I want to say I saw it or a synopsis of it, but every time someone brings up the benching, concrete work, and whatever else was in there I feel like I’m not getting the full affect.

A Chinese scope is good to have around in case you accidentally swallow poison.

Can’t let this thread die young it has too much potential!
