Mike C Posted Saturday at 07:47 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 07:47 PM There's an unusually high discount on this scope from OW. Down from a RRP of 1399.95 to 349.95. What's the reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix Posted Saturday at 08:25 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 08:25 PM Because the version that OW are selling does not have an illuminated reticle Basically there was a screwup between Riton in the USA and the factory in Japan where the scopes were being made Either Riton forgot to specify they wanted an illuminated reticle or the Japanese manufacturer forgot to fit an illuminated reticle Either way, Riton did not want the scopes so the Japanese manufacturer sold them off cheap to OW I have one and it's an OK dayscope which I use only for load development purposes because I like the ret and the magnification It's very poor at dusk - making it much more of a target scope than a hunting scope Cheers Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C Posted Saturday at 09:05 PM Author Report Share Posted Saturday at 09:05 PM Nice to know that Bruce. Seeing as I personally don't need an illuminated ret for my uses and that it also contains ED glass... it might be worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dellboy Posted Sunday at 09:30 AM Report Share Posted Sunday at 09:30 AM They are a good scope sold probably 4 or 5 and keep a couple in stock as said a good cheap daylight scope at that price .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
