This is great you can set the bullet drop circles with the turrets.

It is a really nice scope, especially at that price. I have one sitting, waiting for a CZ.

Was just talking about this the other day in another thread.

 

I have been seeing the add in Shooting Magazine the last 2 months and got to thinking, hey I'm out of money I should do some window shopping. I don't know how wimin do it, I can't, it's sitting in my wish list fort now, just shopping around the internet to see if I see a better price before I order from OP.

I searched around for the best price I could find and Grabagun was about the lowest and I had dealt with them before. Window shopping just makes me buy more stuff, money or not. I try to stay away from the windows.

Nice, real nice,,,,,, I go from looking to placing an order in under an hour from the start of when I saw this thread, real nice,

 

oh and thanks, can't remember if OP charges tax but even if they don't I saved more the 10 bucks.

That's what we're here for...

You're welcome!!

Can someone explain to me why an optic would be optimized for a .22LR? Is it just a price point thing?

 

Thanks,

It has a bullet drop compensator style reticle, which has markings at intervals used at different specific ranges that are based specifically off of the ballistics of a .22lr round, usually a standard velocity round. Of course different types of ammo from various different barrel lengths will give variations but the reticle is designed to be a pretty good estimation. If you use it with other calibers while it can still work, for example, the marking for 200 yards likely won't be 200 yards for that round.

 

Hope that helps.

 

Here is what it might looks like:

 

 

It also has the paralax set at 50 yards instead of the standard 100 yards of a centerfre scope.
