IOR-Valdada any one have good or bad things to say

[Sparky369]

I have a PWS MK216 (308) that needs an optic, an I have been all over the map with what I would like. Most shooting will be done inside of 500 meters but it would be nice to go out a little further when needed.

I think I like the idea of the 1-? scopes like the 1x4 or 1x6 powers but then I found IOR and they make some 1x8 and 1x10 scopes and I wanted to see if anyone has used there gear and has any thoughts on it or something else I should be looking at.
They are on the high side of what I would like to spend so I would like to get some opinions before making the purchase.

I was looking at these two models:

Thanks,

Jesse

Unless things with IOR have changed dramatically I would not be buying 1. I am sure Peter at Hirsch can bring anyone up to speed on how IOR is to deal with when the warranty word is in use.

Symphony, thank you very much for the great information. I appreciate you taking the time to give me such good information.
Do you mind if I ask where you got your scopes?

With the 1-10x how is the scope at 1X I would assume slower than a Red Dot but better than a normal scope.

IOR refused warrnty on a new faulty scope, citing abuse and they take about 8 months for all too frequen repairs. Accordingly we and another well-known dealer dropped them.
