They aren't terrible scopes, as good as any other Chinese scope. No better no worse. It's the only Chinese scope I'll run because when it does take a shit (and it will) a quick trip to walmart for an exchange will have you up and running again.

I certainly wouldn't call the glass crystal clear though, it's completely useless on anything more than 12x. They also have a horrible POI shift when going through the magnification range. Because of this I just duct tape it on 10x so it won't move.

For $70 you certainly can't beat it.

The 2 i have really have no problems[on 22's]. I use mine at 16x all the time--mil is cald. for 10x and at 16 is 2.25 IPHY 'tween dot centers exactly. Turret works very well and returns to zero just fine. I haven't seen any impact change for zero at various powers. There is a glare issue on them though, that's sometimes a problem, and the eye relief is a bit critical at 16x.

Actually i did have a problem with one of them when i had it on an AR with zero shift.

I used mine at 500 yards, it was plenty clear enough.

Re: centerpoint 4x16 mildot report

A buddy of mine just picked one up for the hell of it. I watched him zero it. The turret clicks did not match up with the target impacts. When he finally got it dialed in, we tried to zero the knobs. Using a precision screwdriver on the slotted set screws, I backed two of them out. The third screw was seized. Just a little bit of pressure tore the head to pieces..... I'd rather have a nice set of irons than that piece of garbage.
