[QUOTE="utvolsfan77, post: 5289311, member: 14847"] I bought two first focal plane versions of that exact same scope from MidwayUSA in March 2019. They were great scopes and I really liked them, but I returned both of them. The problem I had was that the reticles were entirely too fine for my old fart eyesight. If I was shooting long distance on a range all day long, they would have been fine. However, if the same rifle was to also be used for woods hunting, most folks (not just us old goats) would have difficulty seeing the reticle, especially during that critical first and last hour of shooting light, which in most areas also happens to be the peak movement times for most game animals. Just my personal opinion, but I think it is a great scope for target ranges but essentially useless in most deer hunting situations. [/QUOTE]
