Just wanna know what you guys think of Olivon scopes, i was going to buy a tasco worldclass 3x9x40 which is $140 at my LGS. But my LGS said the Olivon scopes have better optics and are cheaper by about $15.

So im in another stage of thinking about what to get!

the tasco has a life time warranty dosent it? if so ill probly go with that...anyways if anyone would care to share there thoughts i would be very happy and thankfull for making my decision easyer!!

cheers in advance :wink:

I own two olivon scopes.

One is a 3-9x40 which is on my break barrel 17HMR. A tasco 2.5-10x40 couldnt handle the shock of opening and closing the barrel all the time. The olivon does. Both are quite clear scopes with simple 30/30 reticle. My other is a 6-24x50AO on my howa 22-250. It has performed flawlessly. I set it on 10-12x out spotlighting. It has helped bowl over foxes out to 380m.

I have had no issues with either and for their price, are very good scopes.
