    Yes it was and to be fair I haven't had much of a chance to use it.

    First shot on the old scope upset the focus so wasn't really able to use it after that.

    What I can say is that the dials seem nice and responsive, glass seems clear enough for the price.

    It's the same weight as a vx6

    The only thing I would mention is that the center dot is fairly chunky. Makes it good for hunting, maybe not so good for target shooting.

    It would be better if it had an auto off feature for the illumination but I guess that is one of the compromises you make with a cheaper scope.
    Trout and dannyb like this.
