@Formidilosus just hoping for a survival update for this scope please?

Update.

Form gave me two sightron scopes (one is this one) to shoot/evaluate awhile ago and I have not shot them much at all through our winter although they were zeroed the last outing. I have been carrying this strapped to a pack and its been in my vehicle the entire time as its a "truck gun" as well as a backpack setup.
This was built as a couple hundred yard wolf rifle, lightweight, compact with a pencil faxon 16 inch barrel and its accuracy has been between 2 and 3 moa.
I shot it today to check zero and it grouped accordingly. 10 round zero check and adjusted 10 moa to check tracking....spot on.
It shifted zero up in elevation, however I expect this was due to shooting off my pack....not quite sure as I shot it off of very solid heavy bag last.
The glass is adequate but there is quite a bit of distortion around the edges.


I will put this on a proven 308 and see how she does.

I bought this scope from Camerland based on Forms review. I need to see what I mounted it on and give it a chance this weekend.

How’s the eye box on this scope? And is the illumination daylight bright?

Just based on the fact that it passed the drop test, this may be the go-to LPVO under $500 now that the SWFA 1-6 is unavailable and tends to be going for >$500 used.

It’s fine from what I saw using it.
