They are a heavy baulky scope. They are 50% heavier than a 6x36 Leupold. Mine is sitting in the cupboard as the click adjustments were woeful. I like the 4x33 and 6x36 Leupolds. Brilliant scopes but alas no longer made. But there should be a few on the secondhand market. The 6x38 Weaver is also an OK scope for the price but fairly short so fits better on a short action.
