First Review

Hello,

I thought I would drop a line to give you my scope info, although it is hard
to believe but here it goes. I am currently shooting a RWS 54 .22cal with a
cheap Winchester 3 x 9 power scope. I can't believe it either but the scope
has had at least 5000 rounds through it and still performs perfectly to
date. I had problems with some of the Bushnell's and weavers so I was
skeptical to try this cheap scope. The fellow at the Airgun store assured me
it would work and even if it didn't or I did not like it he would take it
back any time at all and refund my cash! A deal like this I couldn't refuse,
I had nothing to lose but time. I installed the scope and it did take about
30 rounds to settle the accuracy down for some reason ( perhaps the scope
internals were sort of seating in) then it shot very well and has to this
date, hard to believe. The scope does not even change point of impact with
the powers adjustment! The scope does look exactly like the Tasco 3 x 9 you
can buy at Wal-Mart for 64.00 but I paid 52.00 from the gun shop. Well
that's' it hard to believe but true in my case.

Second Review

I
recently rattled apart a Tasco scope so I borrowed the Winchester Model

811 from a buddy who replaced it with a BSA on his RWS 350 mag. His BSA

shoots great on his gun, however we don't believe it's any better than the

Winchester mounted on my Beeman GS1000. Shot after shot I am shooting

perfectly inside the same hole!! Excellent performance from a cheaper scope!
