[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1207852, member: 30902"] They definitely are. Even at places like Sniper Central and The Hide they have gotten good reviews and that says a lot. Quality wise I'd say they are between the SHV and NXS Night Force and they appear to be targeting the same price points in the market. One of the best lower cost scopes you'll ever try for low light use is the VX3 3.5-10x50 or 56 but those are specifically built for guys who are shooting at average ranges. When I was in college that's what I had on both my varmint and "deer rifles" and they were good enough to shoot coyotes on a full moon night without using a spot light which made it hell on the dogs if you were shooting over carcasses or around a dump. We have very dry, clear air here at night though so I'm not so sure it would work for you in the bayou without using a spot light. I doubt I'd do nearly as well at picking up the reticles on them today without going to the illuminated models. My eyes were much younger then.:) [/QUOTE]
