Anyone have experience with this HF scope?

How does it hold up at 200-300 yards?
All comments appreciated.

I've got 3 cheapies. I don't like any of them at past 50 yards. Maybe you will get lucky. Your Mileage Will Vary. Save your money, buy one good one. Done. ..... Lee

I have never used one that cheap.

I have tried several of the cheapies.

NONE of them are any good.

good for 100 yards max and nothing below 30 caliber.

Spotting scope are a great example of getting what you pay for. I keep away from cheap scopes

They left out two words in the product description, Blurry and Dim, I like HF for a lot of things and have found some to be real bargains but that scope unfortunately is not one of them. Find one in a store take it out of the box and look at it, you will see what I mean.

I have used other shooters expensive scopes on many occasions. They are excellent in clarity. I bought a cheep piece of junk Harbor Freight scope. I guess I am lucky with the one I got because I can see 22 cal holes at 150 yds with my poor eyes. My experiences with cheep optics is Don't expect the same .

I will steer away from that one as I did pick one up at a yard sale last week, cheap ($2), but usable for 100 yards which is max. at the range I go to. At that price I had to get it.
