    My thoughts....I like it, very well made, holds zero, tracks well, packed with features, illumination, rock solid zero stop, glass is pretty good.
    I think for the price point it's great value, sure it's not up to nightforce, March etc specs but it's about 1/4 the price.
    You could do alot worse, I don't know if there's any other scope in this price point I'd rather have that matches the specs.
    Ffp would be nice and I think Athlon do offer ffp in some of their scopes but the price is substantially higher.
