    I have not used them, but have looked them over at Cabela's. They seem decent for the price, but of course that is not a field test. They would not tell me who made the scope for them, but they do look like Nikon products. Cabela's customer service it top drawer so I would not be afraid to buy one if that was my price range. That said, I would save for a Burris.

    MFI, did you end up getting one? I am looking into them for my Winchester Model 70 in 7mm Mag. Any more info you have on them would be helpful. Thanks

    I have a Cabela's Alaskan Guide scope in the 30mm variety. A 6.5-20 X 52mm. I love the scope. Wouldn't be happier with it if it said Leupold, Burris, or whatever. It's a little heavy, but for what the scope is, it should be heavy. I believe this particular scope is made by an independent scope maker from Japan that also makes the Tasco Titan scopes, and also some of the Bushnells. The cheaper ones I was told was made by either BSA or Famous Maker. All I know, is that the scope I have is a darned good one.

    I have two, 4X44 and 6X44. I really like them. They are as good or better than anything in their price range.
