I've never owned a Weaver but am seriously considering buying one soon. Let's just say that the price is right and I like to try new things.

Anyway, any positive or negative feedback on these scopes would be appreciated.

I have been using a 3x10x40 on a custon 250ai, fine scope. Optice are good and performs well in low light. I THINK THEY ARE UNDER RATED!

I had one several years ago in the 3-10x40 I believe. It was a great scope for the money, rugged, really nice glass and features that permit easy usage with gloves on.

If the price was right, i'd buy another in a heartbeat. Still kicking myself for letting it go on a trade.

Doubt you'd be dissappointed.

Great scope for the money!

Excellent value. Adjustments are precise, glass is similar to Nikon Monarch's.

Very good glass and built solid, great scope for money.

Great glass for the money. A little short on eye relief though. I wouldnt put one on a big magnum

For you guys that own a 3-9x40, any chance you could get a quick measurement on the max ring spacing and the length of the eyepiece?

Like Landrum, I too am considering one and trying to figure out if it will fit my application reasonable well.

TIA!

I have a 3-10x40mm and a 6.5-20x and love them both. As previously stated their eye relief is something to be aware of and I would think the use of low or extra low rings would be out on most rifles due to the mag ring being the size of a donut.

I have one 1.5 x 5.5 (or something like that) on my .375 H&H encore and I really think it is a good scope. I also have a fixed 4.75 Grand Slam on my .338 win mag and no troubles so far. The little weaver insignia fell off during recoil and I contacted weaver and they sent me a new one.
Optics are pretty good and I too think they are under rated.

Have numerous 1.5x5x32, a 3.5x10x 40 and a couple 4.75 they are great scopes for the $ .I had one 4.75 that came new with a tracking problem sent it for repair and they promptly corrected it . They have a promotion for a very nice bag with a GS purchase . I recently got one and was quite surprised at the nice quality of the bag .

As stated they are great scopes for the money. I have 5 or 6 and would buy another one in a hearbeat. As for the Wearver promotions they had one a couple years ago that you got a camp coat with the purchase. And they were actually good coats!
