I have a tactical that I got with a used rifle I bought on the EE. I am not happy with the clarity at all. I have contacted Barska customer service by email twice with no reply. I am interested to see others' opinions. Right now I would stay away.

I have the 8-32x50 AO Varmint on my Savage 223. Very clear scope up to about 25x. Holds zero and is repeatable. I purchased from White Falls Hunting Supplies (Phil, member/dealer on CGN). I have no complaints other than it's too much magnification for hunting moving targets. It'll hold it's own on a shooting bench though. Wouldn't hesitate to purchase another.

I believe Barska's are made in the old plants that used to make glass pop bottles, same clarity. I used to think mine was fine until I compared it to my NF..... if you are looking for inexpensive (read: not cheap) then get yourself, at the very least, a Bushnell 3200 series scope.

Just to update.Barska did finally get back to me regarding my unclear 6-24X60 IR SWAT scope. I was asked to return scope along with a 15$ US handling fee. Postage for scope was around 18$. Within 2 weeks I received a new scope. So they do stand behind their product.

How does the new scope compare? Clarity better?

I have one. It is what it is, an inexpensive scope. Does the job. For the price I paid, I am satisfied.
