Discovery optics

I've got two of them in FFP, SF, 30 mm tubes. Lovely fine uncluttered reticle, but not as super fine as some FFP scopes and a very clear image, crisp turret turns, resettable turrets. Easy to use with a range finder whether your opting for hold-over or turret elevation turns.

I'd even go as far to say (in bright daylight) one of mine is too clear, it almost causes temporary 'bright eye' blinding, but this scope is also far better than any other I've used in very low-light conditions. Not sure if it's lens coating or what, but it lets tonnes of light in.

I also have FFP Sidewinder and Element scopes, but when I bought my Discovery's, you just could not get this level of specification and build quality for way less money. Few years ago the company that makes them had a video on the Discovery scope being zeroed, removed from the gun, thrown on the floor, bashed on a table, then re-fitted and still perfectly zeroed. Not saying that's true, it's what the video portrayed.

I recommend Discovery scopes, and also Westhunter FFP scopes, both well priced, and good quality, although I think Westhunter are cheaper and these are very nice as well.

Good luck.
