Rochelle,

I have looked thru them and the seem like a great scope for the money. The clarity is not great, but very good for the price. Not as bright as the Monarch' s and a little less than the Buckmaster, but I guess what do you expect for a scope in the $125.00 range.

Optical quality is one measure, but of extreme importance is how well the adjustments work! The only way you learn this is by shooting, unfortunately!!

I just put one on my Remington 700 .300 MAG. Seems to be typical Nikon quality.

I' d put it on the level of a Leupold VX-1. Clarity is good but probably not outstanding. It seems to hold zero so far and sighting in was a breeze. It has the typical positive click adjustments at 1/4 at 100 yds.

I like it and think it' s a lot of scope for $149.99. SportsAuthority.com had them for that with FREE shipping. I couldn' t pass it up.

I looked through one at Walmart a couple days ago. It was a straight 4X I vever saw a scope so bright and clear. Thats all I know about them so far. I just bought a new Swift 3x9 I sure like it so far. They have an over the counter Warranty at Sheels where I bought it. Sheels have a new line of thier own scopes with in there store warranty. They are a great looking scope and they say they have not got one back as yet.
