Centerpoint 3-12X44 AO

[Methuselah]

Picked up a couple marked clearance for $76.88 each at WalMart. They were marked as regularly $124 but I've seen them mark stuff up for next day sales too often to believe that so I looked up the online price which was $99 if I recall correctly.

It's probably destined for the Hatsan 125 if and when I fix it (was yunk brand new but it's been my experience customer service and  Hatsan are mutually exclusive terms when used in the same sentence).

It's big and heavy, not particularly bright, doesn't snap into focus and begins to tunnel just under 7X, but the AO marking don't seem to be too far off, turrets lock and are zero resetable, it came optically centered, and included strung lens covers.

For that Hatsan I'd say 4 to 7X is plenty, and the eyebox is decent if kept at or below 7X. Packaging did say lifetime warranty, but even with the crazy price increases the past two years I believe I paid too much. It's just that I expect that since my salary isn't tracking the increases in cost of living I figured next time I shop for a scope it will probably cost me more than these...

Anyway, as a review, I'd say you could do worse spending more than I did. That's my story and I'm sticking to it

That 125 might break the scope quickly, fyi.
