    I have a strike eagle on mine as well, mainly gets used for bombing up turkey's. The reticle is a little busy and takes a bit of getting used to though. It's all right for plopping a turkey in the middle and squeezing off a few rounds though.

    Even managed to fluke shooting one on the wing from about 40-50m, made for a pretty choice crash landing.
    Only photo I have on hand

    Depends on what you want to use it for I suppose. I had a 1-4 on mine, but found 4x too little mag for shooting hares and rabbits at 250m plus. So just fitted a 3-9x40 VX2 and it seems to be working well. I am missing the illuminated reticle in the 1-4 though for shooting goats and rabbits at close range or out of helicopter.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    I use a Nikon P223 4-12 x 40 BDC. The glass is nice and clear (I use it out to 500 metres) and the BDC graduations are spot on.

    Have an Atibal XP8 and it is awesome have taken a fallow at 270 yards and a magpie at 350 yards. Out to about 300 yards I could consistently hit a 6 inch plate (and most nearer the centre) just by shifting to use just the upper point at 100 the centre for 200 and the bottom point for 300 yards.
