:smile::smile: Youve just fallen prey to the cheapskate syndrome its a curious disease that affects alot of rifle shooters, Its symptoms start with plunking down the better part of a grand on a rifle then puting a recycled beer can on it that some call a scope. After youve gone through 3 or 4 cheap scopes you'll see the light. Save your money for a good one that wont fail leave the junk alone. Think Leupold, Bushnell Elite series, Sightron, Burris. All of these companies produce a fine quality product that will give years of trouble free service. Tasco, Simmons, Barska,and all the rest of the Chinese crap will eventually let you down. You get what you pay for.Sorry Having a bad day but then I dont usually candy coat things I feel strongly about. I am also a benchrest shooter and see $1000+ rifles with cheap optics on them all the time by people just getting into the sport and they get frustrated early and quit not because of a lack of talent but out of frustration because their equipment lets them down. Cheap scope breaks or doesnt track true or wont focus newbie blames a perfectly good rifle and sells it for a loss. Seen it over and over.
