Continental x8 2-16x44 SFP Tactical Scope ED

This is my second Continental scope. Every bit as impressed with my second as the first. The glass is excellent. I prefer it to Schmidt & Bender glass as there is no grey hue. The reticle is perfect and under illumination it performs very well. The range of illumination performs excellently in bright sunlight and low light conditions. Zero stop is easy to set with the included hex head key. Turrets have a solid, high quality feel and consistantly engage movement as expected. The parallax adjustmet is solid, gives a sense of quality and the indicators align with the distance to focus. I'm almost 50 and shooting all my life. I couldn't be more impresed with this scope. It looks, feels and performs at a level of high end European manufactured scopes. I honestly prefer these scopes to many Schmidt & Bender scopes I have owned over the years. I've a few family members and friends who are professional hunters and asked them to take a look at both my scopes. They are blown away when they hear what I paid for them. I can't speak for the entire Vector range, but the Continental stuff is insane value and quality. Only negitave I can say is the prices are creeping up as these scopes gain popularity. The popularity is well deserved so grab one now before they reach a price that justifies the quality and performance. I promise you, you will not be disappointed! 10/10!!
