Awhile ago I picked up a used vari x iic 3-9x50 gloss to put on a Winchester model 70 featherweight 30-06. The scope has the friction adjustments on it and looks like new shape. Planning on using the gun as a back up elk rifle or when the lighter weight makes it a lot more practical to pack than my 12lb 300 win mag. Not my ideal setup but couldn’t bring myself to put a matte scope on a beautiful classic looking rifle and didn’t have a lot of options for a gloss scope and found this scope for a decent price locally. Just not sure if I want to go through the hassle of setting it all up if I’m going to have to worry about the optic failing on me. Searched the forum and site but couldn’t find a lot of info and was looking for some first hand advice from people who have put one through some hard work and what their experiences were.
