Thread: Ranger 1-8x24i scope question

Despite their somewhat rather inflated price they are just expensive Chinese made junk. Also the eye relief looks a little tight at 89mm. I'd want 100mm at least.
For the same price you can get a second hand scope of far superior quality that will actually stand up to .375H&H recoil.

You don't have to pay the earth for something reliable either. In fact there seems to be a turning point in some brands where the more expensive models become more and more fragile.
On my .375 H&H I have a Weaver Classic Extreme 1.5-4.5x24mm. I believe it's one of the best scopes Weaver ever made, super tough with fantastic optics.
Pity you can't buy them any more. I believe they were tested with 10,000 rounds of .375H&H in development.
If you do find them second hand they are normally very cheap. Definitely under appreciated.
