BSA 6x24x44 Tactical mil dot (Midway exclusive)

[1216bandit]

I just mounted mine on my marauder.  I went with medium hawke mounts and not enough clearance for the mag..arggggh!  I can use the single shot tray till I get other mounts.

The optics are VERY crisp and clear.  Adjustments are all smooth with all clicks easily felt.  I am REALLY impressed and getting another one.  Thanx for the heads up on this scope!

Yeah Speedly,
I didn't know how to answer your question .  I went to the manual it looked like it was about 7.5x (between 7x/8x), but I still wasn't sure.  Hence, I went with the standard & copied the manual so you could look.

Don't you hate it when people spread misinformation like "the shorts thing"?

Finally, it arrived.

Good:
- Yardage markers on the side focus appear to be dead on. Ranged objects until clear with the scope, read the yardage, and then confirmed with a laser rangefinder.

- Side focus makes it so the front AO clearance is no longer a concern.

- Reticle is very clear.

- Scope has a very nice field of view, especially as compared to my other scopes that are noticeably cheaper.

- Picture is very clear, even at 24x. Put it in a worst-case scenario by putting on the sunshade at night and focusing in on an object with poor lighting. Still was able to see the picture clearly.

Negatives (so far):
- Resetting zero has you pulling the entirety of the knob off and putting it back on. Not terrible, but unsettling the first time as your brain goes "OH GOD YOU JUST GOT IT AND NOW IT'S BROKEN."

- I wish the reticle has more dots in it. 5 dots limits the scope's ability to shoot long range.

- 30mm tube is a little harder to find rings for (not drastically, only a little harder).

Haven't taken it shooting yet, but I'll add to this as I take it out.

Hey Speedly,
It sounds like there was "fear" of bladder control loss, right up to the point of the lack of Mil Dot's issue?
I think Resetting the Zero may have caused you to lay on the couch for a few minutes.

Same experience I had !!!  For different reasons......................

Just wait, when you wake up tomorrow, you're gonna accept the flaws and LOVE It !!!

My Two Cents......................

It's true.  I've had mine for about 9 months, and with each new scope I have an opportunity to use, the more I appreciate the BSA!  Some being 3x the price.

Christmas has got me stretched out this year.. Hopefully the price will hold on for a while.. Cause I want another one!!
