Never heard of them.  Buy a quality name brand scope.  There are lots of fly by night made in china scope companies out there.

Never heard of them either.  Why take the chance of buying a no name scope?  Will the company be around to warranty it?  Will you ever be able to sell?

Bigunit, welcome to The OT!!

 

Plus 2 to what Chris and ranburr already said.

A .300 RUM isn't real nice to scopes either, as a rule.....

 

However, get a 3-9 Nikon Buckmaster and your good to go!!!

(I had a BM on a .300 RUM and it help up nicely.)

Here's one with a BDC reticle.

If at first you don't secede...try..try again.

hey guys thanks for the info. I agree after I slept on it I thought just that the warranty is only good if they stay in bussiness.I was also looking at swift they have been around awhile and I looked at a couple they look pretty good the warranty definetly good I could be hunting in a different state and if somthin happened to it I could walk into a local store and get a new one. What do you all think of swift any info Thanks Again

yeh thats what i was leaning towards they say the monarch has better glass then the buckmaster but buckmaster was updated this year so what do you think is the monarch $100.00 better than the buckmaster I plan on getting the 3x9x40. My wife has no problem with me getting the buckmaster but that extra 100 may cost me an arm & a leg on the honey do list but if it's that much better then it might be worth it. LOL

The Monarch is a better scope and will provide better performace in low light.

I'd opt for the BM and NO honey do list...........

OWN AN EAGLE EYE, THEY HAVE BEEN IN BUSINESS SINCE 94 HAVE GREAT LIGHT TRANSMISSION AND YOU GET A 3-12-40 SCOPE THAT IS GOOD LOOKING FOR ABOUT 90 BUCKS. I PUT THE SCOPE ON A $300 RIFLE AND I FIGURE IF IT GOES BAD SHOOTING WOODCHUCKS WITH MY 243 NO BIG DEAL JUST MY 2 CENTS BUT I LIKE THE SCOPE FOR THE MONEY
