I can get a full refund minus shipping I am sure.

Ive gone through this before. Forums love some product. Emperor's new clothes.
$600 for a disposable scope.

Won't matter if it holds zero, I cannt see where to shoot.

 

[Steve300xcw]

looks about right to me.

If a guy has eye troubles, different story

I don't have eye problems with a cheap freedom leupold scope. The accupoint looks like the scope I should have got, atleast on the internet it does.

Don't have a problem with any scope I own, except this one. Maybe you need to try a better scope to see what you are missing.

Never said I had problems. I prefer a thin reticle. That said I hand a rifle to my dad and he cant see the reticle. Has no problems with a old 3-9 leupold though.

48 to old to own a trijicon? Maybe they are going for the kid market, by the looks of it.

Just saying I would not have bought this scope if I saw it in person. Euro is closed for the day, giving me time to think if I want to try a accupoint or what. It is a lot of money, to not like it.

Reading posts on here where guy had problems with LED out of the box. If I lose LED, it would be anwful scope.

To thin, and not dark enough.

thats a hard 48

Its not the years, its the mileage

That's why they made the mini acogs I hear

@Zerk you need to call an eye doctor before you call EuroOptic. Sorry man, but that's the truth. Or maybe you aren't focusing the reticle correctly.

Put the rifle to the sky and focus the reticle with the parallax at infinity. Then use the parallax to focus the target.

About the markings, you should shoot enough that you can turn the turret the correct way without looking.

Just get an appoint pro and call it a day.

Have you adjusted the reticle for clarity to your eye? Taking a scope out of the box and not adjusting the reticle focus is a very bad move.

Go outside and set the parallax setting to infinity if it has that setting. Fix the rifle securely and have the sight picture of the scope with only clear blue sky.

With your eyes, look to Infiniti and then focus on something about 100 yards away. Go into the scope and check the reticle for clarity. Make very small adjustments until it becomes more clear. Repeat this process multiple times with constantly looking to infinite and also stuff near by. You should be able to go into the scope and not have your eye take time to get the reticle “in focus”. Our eyes are really good and adjusting to make something come into focus. This will affect the reticle clarity greatly on targets and animals if you don’t adjust it properly.

Zerk, appreciate the feedback on that Credo reticle, it's valuable to some of us still. I still may try a Credo or Accupoint in the future but probably avoid that reticle.

Having said that, just slap that Freedom on there for Thursday and get Euro to send you a Credo with different reticle or a refund. The whole point of this is to rule out scope issues with the VX-5 right? Once you do that you'll know if you need a new scope or not.

I play the eye piece of my scopes, but don't put any effort into to see results. I should try more. It does not have parallax.

But my point is, my eyes, I can look at a leupold rectile just fine with not effort. So my eyes are good enough for that. I don't wear glasses, just uses cheaters for some fine stuff.

The diagram for the accupoint, looks thicker, like maybe aimed at hunters more. Would people agree?

I do like that you can slip the scales without a tool on credo. I like the LED cross hairs on credo just worried if it failed or I don't turn on,, I can't see rectile.

So I looked at white wall, and adjusted the eye piece, and it got darker on a wall in house. Clockwise. Maybe it came to far counter clockwise from factory, where leupold just come in middle.

I never made huge effort with this, because I never had an issue. Usually when bored in deer stand I play with it.

Personally I still think the rectile could be bolder even in the thicker areas. I am used leupold scopes

I know you guys hate leupold but the glass seems better. Big test for me will be low light. This is my out west gun. But my primary hunting is thick woods, and pushing DNR's suggested hunting hours. Though I have never had a buck come in those hours, just does. No doe tags in my area for years.

 

[Drenalin]

Nobody has disputed the quality of Leupold’s glass, and I personally like some of their reticles. If it weren’t a guessing game of where today’s zero would be, I probably wouldn’t buy anything else. Until/unless they fix durability, I’ll be buying others’ scopes.

 

[Zerk]

That is what I am going to find out. Also go low rings to see if they fit. And check bag to build up

And I know some must be me, cause some days are good and some are not. I thought I had my technique down, lots of dry firing.

Light rifles might be part of it too.

The savage I never tried another load in it either.

What is the life expectancy of the LED in hours?
