well its on the BSA Monarch .270 now.Looks peachy and i have to say its quite the piece of kit. cap threads tighten easily and securely.no risk of cross threading thereScope feels solid and is a handsome tool to look at. Most impressive thus far--the red dot!On my meopta optika i have on my bread and butter steyr .243 its really great-but-- on this supposedly inferior brand of scope the red dot is apparently visually encapsulated INSIDE the black centre dot so as to give the red dot a black halo--and its settings are ,i feel, BETTER on this new scope than on my Meopta for daylight use of said red dot.Now im off out later for a zeroing on the .270 so this is all cosmetic i suppose but thus far im really delighted.
