Bought 10x40. On my maverick 25 compact. 1lb. Perfect balance on gun. What a difference a pound makes on a gun. Glass is BRIGHT & CLEAR. Unbelievable fov. Snuggle your eyeball next to the crystal clear lens and see the world. Used it out to 100 but that's not what it's for. Squirreling, pine coning, and persimmoning ( that's all a persimmon is good for) out to 50, dead on. . Allows you quick find on target AND THE SURROUNDING area!, you need to learn your hold over due to capped.reticles. I zeroed @ 25, but it goes down to 6. Would I buy again. You bet! Forgot, illumination is great from dim to bright.
