This scope cost me $149.98 to get retrofitted to a cds dial. It has no sentimental value to me. I had the scope; i don't need any more scope is probably the main reason i invested in it. Also, i am partial to fixed power scope, and that is what this one is. Makes no sense to sell it and purchase another. Also, i am guessing a fixed power scope in this day and age wouldn't get too very much interest in the classified.

The over $200 figure you mention is for the ultra-light, sent in for a cds dial. It required a reticle change, because it had one of them reticle with the dots and such. That 3X9 power scope will go on my Knight 45 caliber when it comes back from the custom shop. More than 4 power will be fun to have for prairie dog shooting in particular, and could turn out to be handy for antelope, and prairie deer.
