Update: This scope is AWESOME. I just drilled two sparrow from my balcony at 25 yds. It is nice and clear, even at 20x. Weighs a lot less than the Hawke 4.5-14x42 30mm side focuse scope I had on the Marauder previously.

The reticle may be too thick for some target shooters, but the 20x magnification goes a long way toward making it a non-issue. It is nowhere near as thick as the reticles of Leapers Bugbusters.

It is too bad Simmons doesn't have other scopes in this series.
