I have a couple of the 6.5-20's. one on my 10/22 and one on my 22-250. They work on the smaller calibers but I don't think they would last on a larger caliber.

Have used them on .308s in the past. They work well, but the clarity does not even compare to scopes 50-60 bucks more in price.

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.
Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

yeah it kinda depends on the gun. i would not put them on much more than about a 243 and feel safe with them. myself, i would spend the little more and buy a bit better scope myself for 50-75 more

I have one- it came on one of my Winchesters as a package deal. Worst scope I've ever looked through in my life. The view is not clear and light transmission is about 1/2 that of my Leupolds. You can get a much better scope for not much more money.
