When I read about that, I wasn't happy. I'm still not. I don't have much experience with their rifle scopes, but the Nikon Force XR is the pistol scope I put on all my 100 yard+ hunting handguns because it's a great scope that can handle even the heaviest recoil, and although I may be in the minority here, its BDC reticle is nice for those longer shots. It helps, too, that it's less than $300.
Guess I'll have to look into that 3-12x32mm Burris pistol scope for my next Encore barrel.
