I opted for the $450 non-illuminated version for several personal reasons - and just received it a few days ago. This will be an exceptional option for long range airgun shooting. However, I intend to use it in NRL22 Base class. I was shocked at how well the scope functions. Turrets are large and have outrageously delicious detent. The line indications for mil dialing match up perfectly, nice when you are dialing for zero. (I’ve seen several vortex scopes fail here, BTW). Parallax distances marked on the dial are actually correct. The glass is fantastically clear edge-to-edge at Max magnification. The eye box is huge and remains the same across all magnifications. I was worried the reticle was going to be too busy for me, but it’s well done and thus far it’s been easy to ignore when not needed and beneficial when in use. With other features like FFP, tool less reset, locking turrets, it’s hitting way above its class and cost. Color me very impressed.
