I also have a Aeon 6-24×50(FT Reticule) on my Cricket and can say it is a very nice scope for the money. I'm a commercial photographer, and so I know what to look for in lenses, and the Aeon is really nice.... for the money. I'm sure there is much better glass out there, but at $285.00 the Aeon is a deal. (That is what I paid anyway)
