Who makes the Chinese 3-12X40 scope that Remington is pairing with their Varminter Model 700 rifles?

I have not encountered any Chinese made scopes worth spending my money on...doesn't make any difference who "made" it. 
If we're not suppose to eat animals...how come they're made of meat?

You know, I didn't ask you your opinion of the scope. I asked if anyone knew who made them. I have the scope, and it has never been used. Didn't cost me a dime and I imagine it will work ok on a .22 that doesn't see much use.

There are probably a lot of things around your house I would not waste my money on either.

It was made by Chinese children. That likely have more manners. Poop is Poop, I don't want it on my hands what ever it came from.
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

Most likely just an OEM manufacturer in china that Remington hired to build it. There are many scope manufacturers that will make a scope for anyone who will pay for them.

Very few scope companies these days actually make the scopes they market. Most of them have multiple lines and even those lines are typically make by different companies in different countries. Its probably impossible to know "who" exactly it was that made it.
Lifetime warranty and excellent customer service don't mean a thing when your gun fails during a zombie attack.

I had a Remington 3-9x40 scope (came with a traded M700) and I researched and found out the exact mfg. who made it. I'd tell you more, but what if I'm sensitive and you cock off and hurt my feelings, or you hack me off and I tell you to F.O.A.D.?
Or something.
We wouldn't want that, would we.
