Arrived yesterday and is now sitting atop my Encore .223. It really looks good in those Warne Maxima mounts.
First impression of the scope is great. I am as impressed with it as I was when I got my Elite 3200 3-9X40mm. The power adjusment ring has just the right amount of resistance - turns easliy, but stiff enough to not turn while rubbing against your coat or something. And I absolutely love the windage/elevation adjusment knobs. Looks like a real machine of a scope.
Initial impression of the optics seem to be great as well. Just looking through it in the backyard it appears to transmit a good amount of light and the image is clear, bright, and even to the edges.
Range report to follow soon.
