Looks like a great deal - Nikon with integrated rangefinder for $250

Free shipping, but you have to pay tax because they have stores in WA.

Just ordered one, will post a review after I figure out what rifle to put it on.

That looks like it would be a great little scope on a 223 and one hell of a deal BUT everything I've read about them says their mounting system sucks and the scope frequently comes loose and being an integrated mounting system I'm not sure there is anything you can do to change it.

I was all set to order one until I read about them and the issues most had with their mounting setup.  Everyone seemed to really like the scope though. 

Hopefully it isn't that big of a problem and you have no issues with yours at all because that's a smoking deal.  Get it mounted up and to the range soon as you get it.  Then you can tell us all first hand if there is a problem with the mounting hardware or not.

I read about the mounting issues as well. Depending on the tube O.D., you may be able to mount it conventionally.

After looking at one of these things I don't see how that would be possible.  But, I'm half tempted to buy one anyway and if it doesn't work out I can just return it.  Problem with that though, is I don't have anything to put it on and I can already read everyone's mind because you're all thinking, sounds like a good excuse to buy another gun, right? LOL

Looks like Cabelas has sold these out already. I got 1 ordered yesterday. We'll see what the mounting options are when it shows up. Like b23 said, i can easily return it if I dont like it. Or.....see if someone wants it for cost and a modest mark up.

Those are the M series not P which means they are based on the Monarch and not the Prostaff scope.  That's a good thing.

I hope that mounting system works out ok for you.  I think that'd be a fun little scope on something like a light weight, Remy 260, carry gun.  Please let us know what you think of it when you have it up and running on something.

Has anyone received a shipping confirmation yet? Tends to happen that they only have a few when they have a deal like this and I get an email advising that they were sold out even though my order went through and they are sorry they cannot process the order.

Got my shipping confirmation this morning and my account was hit yesterday. I still need to do a track on it but should have it next week.

Got mine in the mail today. I will try and get it mounted this week and sighted in by the weekend.  The rangefinder is very quick and accurate. Cant wait to dial it in.

UPS said mine was dropped on my porch 2:19 Tuesday - which it wasn't.  Waited the mandatory 24 hours then called UPS to open an inquiry.  They said to look around the porch and check with the neighbors, then call Cabela's.  As if I'm going to spend my time walking around the neighborhood asking about a package....  UPS sucks.   

Called Cabela's and they said "How soon do you need the replacement?"  Great customer service. 

They are back in stock but $499 now.

WTH....Sorry to hear that...Do you get tweakers in your area following the UPS guys stop to stop?
