Has very interesting characteristics:
Made in USA with Japan glass.
10 yards parallax
Weight 23 oz
MOA illuminated reticle.
Reasonable price
There are very few riflescopes of this quality that can be used to airguns.

Anyone has tested this riflescope?

rember when they write 10yards it does not mean it will be parallax free at 10 yards.
sure you can dial the magnification down to 4x and have sharp image, but i doubt that it will be parallax free at 10yards.
this is not only for this model, all scope do the same when they are not designed for short range.

Yes. So it would be good to know the opinion of someone who has tested the scope

Finally bought the Trijicon Accupower and I'm very happy this scope.
It is quite light, the optic quality is great, very clear.
The parallax its really 10 yards.
The reticle is very good neither very thin or very thick, it is of the ideal thickness for me and the illumination works very well.
Has a little better image quality in low light than my Sightron SIII 6-24x50, but the image resolution is better in the Sightron, stested at the same power.
For the actual price of US686 its a really good scope.

Looks awesome and I love that reticle. Keep us updated as you use it more.

I'm seriously considering one with MIL reticle for my coming Warp. How are the turrets? Resettable?

Yes, they are resettable, although the quality of the turrets is not equal to the SIII and the clicks arent very crisp, despite that they work well.

Another selling point is if you need any warranty work they are a great company to deal with. You get a real person on the phone and they turn around repairs quickly.

Any long term update? On paper this scope looks pretty good.

I have ithis scope a year and a half ago and it it works without flaws. But definitely prefer the floating center dot reticle.

The Moa-2 of the Sightron Siii is my favorite.

jorgemac - thanks for the long term update - great to hear!

I have a Sightron SIII (3.5-10x44) with the mil dot reticle but find it a bit thin for low light. I'll have to check out their illuminated MOA 2.

Yes the Moa 2 is thin but the illuminated center dot is visible perfectly in low light.

How is the ranging of this scope? Can you take a picture of the side focus? I am interested in how far apart the 40 to 50 yards is. 

Thanks!
