3-27x is indeed impressive if it would only be true. The tests on Precision Rifle Blog showed that the scope in question at 27x power actually showed only 22x magnification. This was so outrageous that our importer took one and measured the actual/real magnification… well it definitely was not 27x because he did not want to comment it anymore
I know it is fancy thesedays to have everything in tan or light dogshit brown, but points are not awarded for looks just for performance. With this price tag, it should be nothing less than perfect…

Was any mention made of the Precision Rifle Blog review and Zant’s comments about the magnification range?

The color on that scope is the most putrid thing I’ve ever seen. Looks like someone mixed butterscotch and mustard; yuck!

On the other hand, the reporter Rachel Kopczyk more than makes up for the scope. What a doll.

A Polar 4-16×50 would be very interesting!
