Horus Scopes Good?

[JohnC]

Just curious if anyone here owns or has owned a Horus scope? Are they good? Do they hold up?

I like their reticle choices:

They're one of the best scopes made. Their H59 reticle is an awesome piece of tech.

I've never looked through a scope with an H58. Are all the marking really small and hard to see?

If these scopes are as good as Leupold and Nightforce, they're a steal for their price. To get a Leupold with a Horus reticle, it is over twice as much.

Examples I've looked at:

I had to use a Falcon that had the H37 in it for a while, the scope was fine in all aspects except for that reticle, it was just too busy when engaging targets especially at the higher mag.

I think if one was just a paper shooter with the time needed while your rifle was propped on a bag it could be fine.

Also if your buying the scope with your own money and personal use their warranty is terrible.

I think I could tolerate the H70. I'm getting ready to build a bolt gun. It will have some version of Horus reticle in the scope.
