That is great .  I just bought a Busnell Trophy 4-12x40 last night and was uneasy about spending $170 bucks.  I had bought the same scope but the banner model for $89s and after 3 days a peice started moving around the inside.  I brought it back and they were out of the banner model and the only other one that fit the specs I wanted there (sportsman wharehouse) was the trophy( I wanted 4-12x40, AO and it had to be shorter, just over 12 inches is all the BSA can take), but it was about $100 dollars more. That is more than my shadow.  After reading that thay said "The Trophy is good, its bright and clear, wide angle view in all power settings, and in my opinion the Trophy is the most robust scope among all others in this test."  I don't think that will make my wife feel better but it helps me rationalize it to myself LOL :)

For sure that was a great review. I have also read other reviews on scopes there and all are very informative. One thing for sure those guys on the NZ forum know what scopes and air rifles to use for small and medium game. You will find allot of great reviews there. Most of the time when I am visiting the NZ forum, I learn something new.

Thanks Ghoe for posting that for us to review also.

Outstanding!  I was very happy to see the new 44 Mag I just ordered for my 350 was there, and rated well.  Now if it will just get here...
