Key Specs
Optical Clarity and Build
- Users frequently describe the scope as “very clear” with “crisp etched glass” and “high‑quality aluminum”
- Fully multi-coated lenses enhance clarity in dawn, dusk, and daylight
Variable Magnification + Speed-Lock Ring
- Magnification ranges from 1.5× to 5×, offering versatility for both close-in and mid-range shots
- The magnification ring doubles as a speed‑lock dial (300–425 fps or 450 fps), enabling drop‑compensation via the reticle once zeroed in
Illuminated Reticle
- Offers red or green illumination on central aiming points (not the full reticle), improving visibility in low-light conditions.
- Multiple brightness settings are available
Calibration & Turrets
- Reticle calibrated in 10‑yard increments from 20 to 100 yards using speed‑lock
- Windage/elevation turrets offer accurate, predictable adjustments (e.g., 10 clicks = 1″ @20 yd)

- Built from aviation-grade aluminum, users say it feels “well built” and sturdy
Pros
- Crisp optics and clear clarity

Final Verdict
This scope delivers reliable performance in a robust package with versatile magnification and smart speed-lock calibration. Ideal for 20–60-yard hunting scenarios, especially if you want quick magnification changes without the need for separate optics. Just be aware of its limited eye relief and subpar rings, which most buyers replace.
FAQs
Multiple users report it’s easy to zero at 20–30 yards, or even out to 100 yards after calibration.
Absolutely. Reviews mention “dead on at 20 and 30 yards,” and even sub-2″ groups at 100 yards after speed-lock calibration.
Sufficient for dawn/dusk. Only central dots illuminate, preserving overall field view.
Eye relief is shorter than elite scopes; most users find it fine for typical 20–50-yard shots, but not ideal for extended eye relief needs.
Included rings work but are generally considered “adequate,” not premium. Many users replace them for better durability.
Yes, rated “decent value,” with many recommending it as a high‑value scope for enthusiasts.
