Was at Gander today and I came across this Thompson center 3x9x40 scope for 49.99.

When I took it out of the box I was surprised by its quality. Its clarity was great and reminded me of the feel of my Nikon omega. It also has about 5 inches of eye relief. The scope rings and mount fit the tc line of muzzleloaders but feel very cheap. I would not mount them on my gun.
Sad to say...another scope followed me home.
