    Well i think the optics are good once the fucus is set as in cliffords post.

    One thing that does worry me is the turrets moving as they are exposed,is there a way of locking them?

    I will say it again as I have said before , they are great value for money with a good finish and nice optics . I have a side wheel on mine too just to look poncy

    Be careful though as some of these copies are cr@p ....... Pats ones are fine but the ones on that site are not so good apparently ?

    One niggle I do have is that the turrets do move , when zero is acheived a lil bit of tape will cure that !

    one thing that is beginning to bother me with this scope is the weight of it .
    my gun feels a little top heavy , maybe i will get used to it ,but every time i pick it up i notice it , somthing to keep in mind when you are concidering a scope of this size , not helped by it's 30mm tube either.
    i might buy that damned Leupold after all shh dont tell the wife

    Most 30mm tube scopes are poxy heavy but the Cleupy is much lighter than, say, an EB 10x42.

    Remove the turrets, it will only weight half as much.
    Heavy? are you kidding? I have heavier feathers.

    I have handled quite a few of these (25 - 30).

    There are a few different versions , some come with sun shade and flip up covers, others don't.

    Some also have the Leupold logo on them.

    The quality does vary between them but the ones i brought in were checked over by the seller in China and they are about the best value scopes I have tried.

    The objective lens and the illuminated reticle control's on some are different to the the ones on mine and on some the turrets can be reset others can't.
    The one's with the logo are pretty goo dcopies whil eth eothers are not as close

    I have heard that some can not be reparallaxed because the front ring can't be removed.

    The packing on all looks the same.

    A few people i know have been caught out on "that site" with sellers sending M3 versions when they won M1 versions.
