Anyone have any experience with these scopes? Eurooptics has them (1.2-5x illuminated 60 reticle) on sale right now and I'm looking to possibly upgrade the scope on my 375 from a Leupold Euro 30 1.25-4 non-illuminated for my buffalo hunt this fall.
 
This new line replaced the previous Duralyt line. I've got a 1.2-5x36 that I use on my 375 H&H. It has the illuminated reticle but rather than the entire reticle being illuminated, just a dot in the centre is, a feature I really like. It's really good glass for the money.
 
They're looking good, just trying to weigh an extra $1100 into a scope vs trophy fees. I'm leaning towards trophy fees, honestly.
 
Toys or trophies!? Hmmm.
 
I had a conquest DL 1.25-5×36 mounted with talley quick detatch on a sako arctos in .30-06. The scope worked well mechanically and glass is good. Turret caps are metal which I like alot, nice matte black finish, no extra logos painted on it.
It made for a very nice handling and balanced set up. Should not have traded that one off.

I realize how hard the bug has bit. I’m on the cusp of safari #2 and I’m looking to plan #3 with my 11 year old a year from now while looking at my work schedule for overtime and computing the math of how many shifts are needed….
