Why is this cheap scope better than my high priced scopes.

... I notice that there are some differences, for instance the minimum parallax on the Discovery was 10 yds, while the Marcool is listed as 20 yds...

Where did you get the 20yds for that Marcool? Their web site shows 10 yds.

"Parallax Adjustment Range:<10-500-∞yds"

Edit: I was just pointing some facts out. I am not recommending either of these scopes. Though the specs look OK, I don't like the reticles from either of these particular Discovery or the Marcool FFP scopes.

I found the information on two different retailer's websites. The information seemed redundant so I assumed it was correct, but it looks like I was mistaken.

@ OP I looked at the ohhunt as well before I bought Discovery's, there wasn't out there on them. Great to hear something on them!
