Nice scope for the money.. I would say if you keep these to the world of rimfires or other guns you will be pleased...if you think this is a junk scope because it didn't survive your moose hunt in Alaska with your 300RUM then I think your expectations might have been a little high... Great scope for your 10/22 or 17hmr or maybe even a budget. 223 gun but I wouldn't count on it being the scope for a Christensen Arms... $250-400 gun I would go with this and be perfectly satisfied which I have been on all my 10/22s...but don't expect it to replace your huskemaw
