IOR 4-14x50 Illum Tactical - What do you think?
« on: May 26, 2004, 12:54:34 PM »
I'm closing a deal on an IOR 4-14x50 Illuminated, side focus tactical.  For those who own or have owned one, what do you think?  What am I in for? Thanx...

I have a IOR 2.5X10X56mm Illuminated and I love it.  :grin: I have hundreds of rounds fired from my .308 and not one problem. Very well made scopes.

I've seen some postings that state some problems with the 4-14x50.  Not sure if it was specific to that model only. Something about a black speck appearing and a hue that remained behind after the spot cleared one of the lenses.  Paint?  Not sure.  Just wondering if a problem exists with the 4-14's.  Thanx...

I don't know anything about this scope.  Can you reference a website?

I got my 4-14x50.  WOW!  It truely is a great scope. It's bright and very well built.  Highly recommended. One note though, IT's HEAVY!!!  I got the illuminated model with the MP-8.  Thanx for all the advice.
