I ordered 3 of these in from Natchez for $99 bucks . I gotta tell you this is a whole lot of scope for the money.
I have compared it side by side to my Nikon Monarchs and my Zeiss Conquest on the same power setting. At twilight in hangs right in there with the Nikon and only the Ziess beats it out but only by a Min or two.
Its held up really well on the bench too. I have mounted one on a Savage MLII Smokeless and another on a CVA Optima. Its held up to the pounding that both Ml's deliver.
Yes there are scopes out there with more eye releif. 3.5 is not exactly the greatest in the world but for $99 bucks I think I can live with it. .50 cal ML is not exactly a shoulder buster of a round and I am not shooting maximum charges out of mine.

I'm happy with the scope overall,
It is sitting on a rifle right now, because it did not have enough elevation adjustment for the slug gun I bough it for. No big deal, just swapped scopes and both guns are shooting great.
I find the eye relief to be sufficient.
