Eh, hate to tell you buddy but you got ripped off. The most expensive Aim Sports scope I can find online is one of their ACOG knockoff wanna be tacticool scopes for $149. And I can't find a single 30mm tube in their lineup. Their scopes go generally from $30 to $75 bucks except for the "tacticool" looking junkers which go from $90 to $149. It's a junker line of scopes for guys who have blown their wad on an expensive rig and didn't think about budgeting for good glass.
Never used a Konus but they have a fairly good reputation. I personally think you can get a scope just as good or even better for $100 or so bucks less than that scope you are looking at.
