That A6 is a REALLY nice scope too! I would lookup that guy making custom side wheels for it with that Daystate Blue Wolf rifle. Heard it was really good deal too.

Deal Alert Athlon Scopes
- Thread starter goodoldbvc
- Start date
well i was hoping he declined my offer but when i woke up he had accepted it lol, so no A6 for me apparently. Hopefully its as good as you say and the mil dots work out for me. Was a nice chunk of change cheaper than the A6 so that helps. I almost pulled the trigger last night at the dvor website but then i read the fine print and they don't actually do refunds, they only do store credit which is a huge turnoff. and that free axe place charges crazy for shipping, $17 to ship a tiny little scope box? So the alpha would have been almost $250. and i won't be able to do much of a review of this barra when it comes in because i really have nothing to compare it to besides a bushnell banner or some centerpoints lol

I don't trust Yo Odoyle one bit. So the guy has a lot of money and buys everything he can get his hands on. Has anyone ever shot with him? Does he even know how to shoot or use a scope properly? Or is he just a collector that puts his scopes on maximum magnification to shoots at tin cans at a 20 yard range? He writes like a teenager high on marijuana. Seems like every chance he gets he's selling something that I bet he has a vested interest in.
Mark up or no mark up a $200 Japanese scope thats better than the rest of the proven models is a bunch of BS. It's either Japanese junk or made in China and stamped with made in Japan!
Why hasn't anyone flagged him for taking this topic way off topic?

EBay has a 30 day buyer protection return guarantee. Print out their free return shipping label if you are unhappy.
I have 3 successful orders from the seller SUPCASE and always paid less by making offer.
I will personally buy them from everyone reading this if offered $150x2=$300 with free sgipping which he is known to accept by buying 2 at a time.
I have no affiliation with Barra nor SUPCASE on EBay whatsoever.
This one is clearer than the Aim Sports Alpha 6 and cheaper too.
Joe follow the offer instructions $150x2=$300 buy 2 and go and do a review and I will buy both from you after you are done.
You may not get it for $150 if only one Offer is purchased and he may counter offer $175 or $185.
If you like the Glass from the SWFA SS then you will like this Barra even more.

I feel like you come across as trying to help people out in finding a good scope, but apon careful examination it looks like youre far more interested in helping yourself. You have a closet full of barra's and rehomed your 3 dogs for planned expansions. And yet your main interest is trying to get people to buy more scopes to sell you, instead of just loaning one of the thousands you have to a well know youtuber?

THAT WAY I can't cherry pick one that has better than the average glass since all manufacturers scopes have some degree of variation from scope to scope so it wouldn't be set up and 100% truthful.
Do realize that you can buy 20 scopes and have a few shine better than others just like guns some phenomenal while most others just average.
Besides my CC got placed on hold again so even I cant order more (for now).

I'd like to pick back up on the comment about the fat mil dot reticle on the Yo'Doyle scope.
IMO- I'd rather have a reticle I like and find useful rather than a scope that is slightly clearer at max mag with a reticle I dislike. For example, my Optisan EVX is one of my favorite scopes to shoot because of the reticle, same with the Vortex Diamondback. Maybe the scopes recommended by Yo'Doyle have clarity that beats out my $400 dollar scopes but its not a realization I'll ever make because I wouldn't purchase a scope with that fat mil reticle that reminds me of those beads people stick in their b-holes covering up my target.

Absolutely. Theres a lot more that goes into selecting a scope than "cLeAR!" glass. Let's face it, most any scope nowadays over $200 is a lot better optically than most scopes from days gone by. The "glass race" has gotten a lot more closely matched.
Speaking of clear glass, I have an EVX 6-24 as well and don't find the optical quality shabby at all! Nice scope I think.

I will like it better than my Alpha 6 reticle,, I dont care for xmas trees or to much little hashes clutter up the picture, pesting is my main use not 100 yd paper hole making,
Each person has to pick what works best for them,Makaveli,I sent you a pm,,,the Barra reticle reminds me of my SWFA mil-dot 10x they are clearer and sharper than the photos show

Hey Guys, I just posted my first impressions on this Barra scope, I hope you give it a read and get a better picture of what this scope offers.
I think it's a really good scope and hope that some of you might give it a try, you may be very surprised. For the money, can't be beat.
