Hi All,
Well in case you have not figured it out
Magazine writers and advertisers LIE
All they care about is the advertising revenue and truth be damned
even if the writer wants to tell the story as it is do you think that the editior whose eyes are on the advertising revenue will print the truth? No way hose
There are those like myself who have found out the hard way that cheaper optics can cost more than just money
having a beast in front of you and not being able to determine the correct spot to shoot or being able to tell which way the beast is facing due to poorer optics really sucks. After this happened to me I decided to upgrade the optics on my rifles but being financially challanged (i.e broke) I scoured guns shows and gun shops for good second hand scopes so now after several years of doing this the chances of this happening again are greatly reduced
Most rifles can be tweaked to shoot acceptly well but cheap lenses and poor optics will alway remain cheap and poor
unlike a rifle it cannot be tweaked by the owner or a smith for reasonably cost/ Sure we all like good quality rifles that look nice but a best rifle with a cheap poor scope is an abomination
