First impression: box is very well built with internal pockets for everything. Very neat. I got this scope and it is in surprisingly like new condition.

Usage: It reads just right. Measure appears in the center of the scope. Convenient as hell if you dont got a spotter scope. Reading is bright enough in bright day light. However, it is not recommended that the scope is pointed at high intensity light. Previous owner said it held zero perfectly after 200rds of 300wm. The scope is crystal clear and is actually a little better than my Vortex PST.

It is a bit heavy. Putting it on my AI AE resulted in quite a heavy weapon. Not a big deal if you do bench shooting, but if you have to lug it around, wouldn't be much fun haha. The weight makes it front heavy and difficult to shoot holding up.

Overall: I liked it for the convenience, but I want to try out a different scope for learning purpose. I'd be selling this one soon as it would be perfect choice for someone else.

Thats all I got. Anyone else got more input, please chime in.
