bought one cheap and doubt I will ever buy another.  the first one fogged up on the inside.  took it back got another.  same thing.  took that one back and thought I got a good one.  after awhile I noticed it did it again.  not sure if their seals are no good or what.  I have it on the .17hmr and it works if you do not go from a warm enviroment like inside a truck to a cold one like night air.

My cousin has had one for 3 years on a 30-06 bolt action and it seems to be holding up real nice :shrug: I might try one.

I've got a Ruger 22-250 with a Barska 3x12x50 IR (Illuminated Reticle) mounted to it.

I actually bought this scope at the spur of the moment days before a night hunting trip to Texas a couple years ago.
So far I am perfectly satisfied with it.
It lets in lots of light, very clear, nice eye relief.
The illuminated reticle has brightness adjustments to prevent from "burning out" the target and works like a dream in low light night hunting conditions.
