Good video here:

I am going to order a 3-12 Huron in a few minutes to put on my Christensen Mesa 7 mag. Will post back with my impressions once I get it

I am interested in hearing what you have to say about the eye relief. Eurooptic seems to have the best prices.

Fedex man delivered earlier this morning, I just got it mounted and bore sighted.

After focusing the eyepiece to suit my vision, the glass seems very good. It has no parallax, but detail and definition at 300+ yards is just fine and from a glass standpoint, reminds me of the Vortex Razor LH In 2-10x40 which also has no parallax.

Construction seems robust. 30mm tube.

I like the reticle very much. For me personally, I have tried and disliked both the B&C reticle by Leupold and the BDC reticle by Vortex due to the fact that the hash marks just seemed really small and cramped relative to the rest of the reticle. The reticle on this Huron 3-12 is a German #4 with clear and clean hashmarks, spaced in a way that is visually pleasing to me personally.

I mounted it on my CA Mesa in 7mag. Eye relief does not seem like a problem...I plan to shoot it next week,and hopefully kill a hog as well.

At this point I do not regret spending $550 (all shipping and fees included) to get this scope. You can get for less than $500 on backorder.

Looks great! I was just shooting a R700 yesterday with a Trijicon Accupower. I forgot how much I like that scope.

How is the eye relief? I notice you have it as far back as it can go.
