You get what you pay for with them. IMO they are junk.

Re: Osprey scopes
For a $200 scope, they aren't bad. I have one on a 6.8 SPC AR and the clarity in full light is good. Turrets seem to track true as well. I've had no problems with it punching paper during the day out to 300 yards. Illuminated reticle can be a little intense at the higher settings and the rings that come with them are a too high for my taste.
I'd put them in the same category as a Millett in quality.

I was looking at a millett (online) and liked the features i saw but after looking through an osprey and handling it it seemed pretty good. it was clear and bright even with an 8" sunshade on it

Re: Osprey scopes
More than adequate for by 6.8 SPC AR and it allows me to shoot at the range and work up loads for the rifle, while I'm deciding which scope to mount on it permanently and save up for it.
I haven't built enough confidence in the Osprey line to subject it to the typical abuse that comes with it being out in the field. Particularly the stuff on the torture test post that they did to US Optics and Vortex.
Reason I'm leaning more towards Millett is because of their customer service. No personal experience, but have seen some less than complimentary accounts about getting support from Osprey, while Millett (division of Bushnell?) seem to have exceptional support and stand behind their products.
