What is you opinion of these scopes?

I have one but have not done the box test yet.

How is reliability and tracking with these?

Friend has one. The adjustments were a bit spongey feeling but it sighted in easily and he claims it hasn't been touched in the past 3-4 years he has had it. It seems like a decent little scope for the price. There is a lot of competition in that price range though so you may want to shop around. The sightron sale right now is pretty tempting and some of the SLii are avaliable for about the same $. Edit to add I was just looking at the sampl list and found they had a 2-7 rifleman and a vari xii for $119 and $149 respectively as well as a couple of the redfields . I would probably go that route if it was me.

I looked at one of the revolution's awhile back and frankly, was not impressed. In that price range,
I'll stick with the Burris FFII.

Sometimes my tongue outruns my brain and I say something I haven't thought of yet!

Not on par with what it should of been, the Japanese Redfield was a better product than the Leupold USA product. I was disappointed.
No one
