I believe I have the same scope as Dave by his description. Mine is ANIB and the model number is 16583. Mine says 2-7 Vari-x iic on the objective end and my serial ends in G. Believe what you wish, mine has the price $459.99 on the box. If Dave's matches mine, I can tell you that the view is incredibly nice. I was shocked at how good it was. Mine has been in the safe for some time saving it for a deeply blued rimefire barrel.I got it out to check after seeing this thread. If Dave's scope is the same as mine, IMHO, $200 is a deal. Hope this helps....
A Vari-X IIc means it is a later scope with 33mm objective and increased windage and elevation vs a Vari-X II that is 28mm with less travel in windage and elevation.
