Good Scope for the Money, Very Versatile
I recommend this for anyone wanting one scope that does it all — close range, mid range, and everything in between. The first focal plane makes range estimation easier, and it mounts up solid and stays put. If you’re a weekend shooter or hunter who wants versatility without spending a fortune, this is a strong choice.
-
Great for Training and Fun Shooting
Picked this up to put on a training rifle and it’s perfect for that. The reticle is intuitive, easy to see and doesn’t clutter your view. I’ve used it on steel at various ranges and it holds zero — very happy with the performance at the price point. No regrets here.
-
Exceeded My Expectations
I wasn’t sure what to expect since the price was lower than other 1-8x optics I was looking at. But honestly it’s exceeded my expectations. The mount that comes with it is sturdy, the scope itself feels rock solid on my rail, and tracking has been excellent. Only slight downside — glass isn’t quite as crisp as the $1K+ scopes, but for the price this is a killer deal.

Easy to Use, Works How It Should
This scope is just plain useful. The transition from 1x to 8x is smooth and makes this really flexible for different shooting tasks. At 1x it feels almost like a red dot, which I love for quick target acquisition, and then the zoom gets you out to longer shots without switching optics. Great everyday optic.
-
Happy With Purchase, Minor Quirks
Generally happy with the optic — it tracks well and the turrets are repeatable. My only minor gripe is that the reticle illumination (if you use it) isn’t as bright as some more expensive brands, but it’s still perfectly usable. I’ve taken it out on various plinking and target sessions and it’s held zero just fine.
-
Not Top Tier, But Very Impressive for the Money
I wasn’t expecting top tier performance at this price, but this scope was definitely better than I thought. The FFP reticle stayed usable at all magnifications and the build feels strong. Optical clarity isn’t Zeiss or anything, but it’s solid and usable in most light conditions. For someone wanting performance without paying premium scope prices, this is a great pick.
-
Worked Great at the Range
Took it to the range last weekend and was impressed with how clear the view was and how easy it was to transition between targets. Zeroing only took about 10 shots, and once dialed in it stayed put. It handled recoil from my 5.56 AR very well. If you’re looking for an affordable 1-8 scope that does both close and farther shots well, this one’s hard to beat.
-
Good Glass, Great Price
This scope offers way more than I expected for the price. The first focal plane reticle is a big deal — it’s functional at all power levels, which isn’t something all scopes in this price bracket do. The controls are smooth and positive, and it seems well sealed against fog and rain. Wish the finish was slightly more premium, but performance is what matters most and it delivers.
-
Perfect Balance of Close and Mid-Range
Used this on a deer hunt and was impressed. I could quickly acquire targets at 1x in thick brush and then zoom up for shots out to 300+ yards without swapping optics. The glass is clear and the reticle easy to see. Mounting was a breeze, and the fact that the scope came with a mount was a nice bonus. Definitely recommend.
-
Solid Scope, Needed Minor Adjustments
I like this optic but had to take a bit of time dialing it in. The turrets have a somewhat firm feel at first, but once you know them they’re fine. Eye relief is generous, and the reticle scale on the first focal plane is accurate across the zoom range. I did spend a little time adjusting for parallax at extended ranges, but that’s typical for a scope in this class.
-
Great All-Around Scope for Hunting
I bought this for some mixed bag hunting this fall. The first focal plane reticle makes holdovers easy no matter the zoom level, and the glass stays clear even in low light — helped me pickup shots just before dusk. The scope feels solid in hand and sits nice and low on the rail. If you’re not ready to drop big $$ on a Trijicon or Vortex, this is a fantastic alternative.

Worth Every Penny for My AR Build
I installed this 1-8x28 FFP on my AR-15 and couldn’t be more pleased. It’s surprisingly solid for the price — crisp glass, turrets that feel positive, and a true 1x view that makes close-up work easy. Zeroing was straightforward, and the mount included saved me a step. I’ve put a few hundred rounds through it with 55gr and 77gr ammo, and the reticle held perfectly. Great value for what you get.
