I have 2 also, one (HD 4-20x50 FFP) I have had for almost 8 years and has worked flawlessly, the new HD 2-12x24 FFP has been a joy to use on my Notos.

My 2nd favorite scope is my Discovery VT-T. Old, inexpensive FFP. It stacks up against my Hawke Sidewinder or my Athlon.

Discovery Scopes are good,the upper range are better,I do find some are on the heavy side. Discovery brand scopes have been around for some years. Good scopes for their price point

It is very hard to get a new Discovery scope that is sourced in the USA for some reason;You can go to Wes in Canada or buy directly from Discovery in China,That is what I have done,but the wait time can be a long time,I say go to Wes at Airgun,Archery Fun in Canada.

No tax no shipping fees...weird.....It's funny how discovery was in stores here ( USA). Then faded out to really none .. lol.

I was a Discovery- aholic until they quit producing such a nice assortment of SFP scopes. Now I’m done with them. But I like the ones I have in relation to their price point. No failures and the glass suits what you pay for them. At least it did back when I was buying them.

I am thinking it has to be shipped from somewhere in the US...the dot us in the link is telling. I am happy for the quick shipping either way!

I bought three Discovery scopes directly from the factory in the past year or so. An HD 3-12×42 and some of the new HD 2-12×24 all of which proved to have very good build, optical, and tracking qualities, with certifications. After ordering, two came shipped from china within 3 weeks, and the last one came from a distribution center in California within a week or so. Discovery Optucs is their own factory, and not some manufactiring entity/brand name who is contracting to have their scope's made in a factory over there.

the magnification ring is very tight on my scope and it’s very difficult to adjust my zoom. how do i loosen it? it’s ridiculously tight

Find a magnification throw lever that will fit, this will give you more leverage. They are tight so if you bump them they will only move minutely. These are cheap zip ties that will work.

I’ve got 4 of them now, a 5th on the way. Best scopes I have tried for the money. I think they are underpriced based on the glass clarity and durability.
The one that should be here tomorrow was no tax, no shipping fees. Takes about 2 weeks to get them from China.
