I really like these scopes. I have been buying the 6-24X 50mm with lit center dot. Focus to 10 yards, and so far the tracking is perfect.
I don't like the shot battery life, and it does not turn off automatically. Both issues are pretty silly with a scope that cost over 1000 bucks.
Currently my favorite scope.

I bought the same scope form Eurooptic for $649. When I piddled with it in the house, I was unsure if I was going to like the reticle. A range session changed my mind. I haven't had it in the woods yet, but I feel confident that the illumination will go plenty low not to cause washout.

So just the center dot illuminates? If so I wish my Credo HX would be the same. My 4-16x16 Credo Hx has the MOA reticle with center dot, however the entire reticle illuminates. I love the optic, but that is the only flaw in my book with this credo. Makes it tough to use the illumination in low light.

Eye relief is great. I haven't measured it, but I don't have to crowd the scope at all. Eye box is good until you start getting well on up there in range, then it obviously tightens up.

Paul,

That scope interests me particularly at that price. What is your intended use for it?

I have it on my Remington 700 5R .223. I will use it primarily as a target rifle, but have used it on deer and will probably do so again.
