Looks like a great scope at a give-away price.

If they would put that price on the Matt model I'd be ripping the credit card out of my wallet.

I thought it was a good price. I want one for my new TRT crossbow I just bought. If you think guns are expensive..lol

My issue will be Parallax for 30 to 40 yards. If it will not make that much of a difference I will get two at this price.

If your eye is directly in line with the axis of the scope parallax will not be an issue. If you're not directly in line, at those ranges the parallax error could be severe - something like 0.05 inches. Not to worry.

Thanks for the heads up Doug...

I've got a customer that I take hunting, might earn me
a few brownie points...

He just bought an Optima this weekend and needs a scope...

I let him use my Knight last year while I used my flinter.....
