    Boy am i glad you beat me to the scope, Great write ups about it but wait till you use the Viper. Its the clearest thing ive look through. But ive only looked at scope up to £600.00.

    The viper what a saving.

    I have a Lightstream here for testing,i won't be mounting it on the gun until after the HFT season finishes, but so far very impressed with the optics, DOF and RET.

    Had a look at one at the Midlands And at Shepreth round of UKAHFT. Impressed with the entry power model but would like the 32 when they come out,have to wait as they have not got any in the country yet. Nice clear optics, like the graticle and sub-divisions, and the price seems right.Gary has a good guarantee also.Plus the extra goodies.' no hat'? though. HERX77

    The Viper is well below a Lightstream in optical quality. It's not bad but it's not premier league. The controls are also stiff enough to give Big Nikko users a hard time. The Vipers I've seen have all been a little short in the DOF too IMO. To be fair they aren't in the same price bracket as a Lightstream either though. Perhaps there is variation in the quality of both scopes. I know the Lightstream is made in VERY small batches and I suspect the Viper is too. I doubt that that is an aid to consistent quality.
