Meopta Optika6 4.5-27x50 Illuminated MRAD 30mm FFP Riflescope 653595

It's great for the money. ​ The features are nice, though I wish the windage turret locked. The manual is not the most helpful thing when it comes to set up, so I have not yet adjusted the zero stop (which is the only seemingly complicated thing on the scope), but it functions at the factory set zero. ​ ​ Overall I like the glass and think it may be the best value for the money. The view is clear throughout the magnification range, bright at lower magnification and a little darker at higher magnification, and the parallax adjustment was spot on for me. The reticle is usable at all magnification ranges. It's not the best I've seen at high magnification as the partial circle around the fine inner cross hair does obscure portions of the target, which can make observing hits difficult. I have not even put the battery in to check the illumination. ​ ​ The turrets have a firm click, which is a nice feel though I miscounted clicks a few times due to the initial force required to get the turret moving. It seems the turrets are very repeatable when shooting. I've not done any actual measurements to verify them, but after running them up and down a few times then bringing them back to zero they went in the same hole. I have also not checked to see if the value of the clicks is accurate.​ ​ There is little doubt that it is sturdily made. All adjustments feel firm and crisp. Turrets are bulky and there is hardly any play if you try to move the elevation turret when locked. So hopefully that won't lead to inaccurate turret readings after years of use, but I would have preferred a turret that locked on the exterior than the interior of the mechanism. ​ ​ Accessories, like sunshades and such are not yet available and the ones from other Meopta lines are not compatible. Meopta customer support said April/May should see their roll out with possible COVID related delays. ​ ​ Sighting in and running a few days worth of shots through it was all I needed to know I was satisfied with the purchase. Again, for the money its an all around good optic. It is not without flaws, nothing is, but I've not found anything better in that price range. I will likely get another when I complete a rimfire trainer version of the rifle it's on. And I'll likely get it through EuroOptic based on their prices and customer service.
