Can someone fill me in on the Monstrum scopes? I never heard of them before I bought a rifle with a Monstrum rail, then bought Monstrum rings. Both had a built in level which I thought was pretty cool.
I put a hunting zeiss scope on a bergara, but am wondering about using it for long range. That is why I am asking about a Monstrum scope.

Its always smart to buy the biggest POS that you can to put on a rifle that has to hit something about to hit you, or bite you, or a game animal that you want to eat. Why just a few months a go I watched a dude spend several hours sighting in his AR at 15 yards with some high quality $100 optic. I bet he fired several hundred rounds at the target. He ran out of ammo and did not get it sighted in, I was thinking, there goes the top Mensa member here in Alabama, spending the difference in ammo just so's he could buy a cheap scope.

I use the $12.99 Amazon Monstrum scope rings. So far they seem fine.

I never heard of them either. I plan on using the zeiss terra 2x7 i think, normally. The rings and bracket by monstrom have built in levels. That does impress me. My other rifle wears a zeiss comquest 3x9.
I couldn’t sight in a rifle before I got the Leupold bore sighter ghat is obsolete now. Now it’s not hard.
I thought that maybe their scopes were maybe the up and coming thing …..

You can buy 700 dollar scopes that won't work right out of the box too. Just more likely to happen with the cheap ones. But you can get a really cheap one sometimes that works well.

I use a number of Monstroms rings, their QDs work well for me. Never tried their scopes, I just saw them advertised just recently.
After the first shot the rest are just noise.

Why? With so many known good options, why even consider Chinese junk?

They have increased in price quite a bit since I started buying them. Like most really good products people discover them and that drives the price up. I have a SH series, an EP series and an EP LPVO. All of them have been well worth the money. That said I think the most I paid was $349 (with mount and caps etc). I like them better than my Vortex scopes if that tells you anything.
