They have a very solid lineup. I got to sample their wares at the NRAAM, and bought two of the Talos 1-4x BTR's for a couple of my AR's. Adjustments are positive and repeatable, glass is very good (better than the Primary Arms and Leupold I messed with, comparable with Vortex, Nightforce, and S&B [yeah, I said that]). Between them and Vortex, my optics needs are covered.

Re: So many new scope manufacturers out there... new ones in the mix
Has any one used or have an opinion on Konus Pro 6.5-25x44 scopes? My brother has been using one for 3 + years and never had a problem. Seems to track well and to my eyes seems to have decent optical qualities. The few times I've looked thru it seems to be on same level a Bushnell Elite scopes.

So far I have very good luck with my Burris 5x25x50 II. For the money it's hard to beat. I have done long range with it, at 1,000 yards.

Yes, I have one on an AR long distance build,... I have no complaints at all, but I have only had it for about a year, and only shot it out to 200 yds a half dozen times.
I also have a fixed 4X, probably from their very early production years that is fantastic in every aspect,... imo!

I have a Burris illuminated 3.5-10x50mm that is probably 20 plus years old, that I can't kill! I think Burris is an excellent scope maker!

Re: So many new scope manufacturers out there... new ones in the mix
I've ben thinking of buying one for my 308 POF. I can't keep putting Nightforce or even Burris XTR II'S, Bushnell Elites on my rifles without a hassle from the boss. I forgot to mention my brother in law also has used the same model on his S&W MP10 for almost 4 years without a problem. Seems like a lot of scope for not much money.shooter444 wrote: ↑December 12th, 2018, 4:27 pmsamnev wrote: ↑November 13th, 2018, 8:20 am Has any one used or have an opinion on Konus Pro 6.5-25x44 scopes?

Re: So many new scope manufacturers out there... new ones in the mix
If you search through this thread, you will find my original post about Konus,... it really is the only cheap scope I have found, over the years, that I am very satisfied with.
I hate to recommend cheap scopes, out of the fear that I got a good one and someone else may get a lemon. You never know when QC can change with any company, on any product,.... so, it all is basically a crap shoot, imo.
