Looks cool, but you get what you pay for, October 18, 2011
This review is from: Barska Point Black Riflescope- Choose Size (Misc.)
I bought this because it really does look and sound like a great scope for the price for my 223 AR. When I got it the crosshairs were not straight?. So I thought... I could live with that, and mounted on my AR. The eye relief was horrid and if you were not looking exactly straight through it you had no clear view. The reticle is neat looking, but was very small for my eyes. I never bothered sighting it in. $100 is $100. No matter how cheap, you should be able to actual use the thing. Pay a little more and get a quality scope. Burris/redfield are not much more but MUCH better. Nikon and Leupold make a $350 scope with a 223 BDC. You truly get what you pay for with this China glass. I gave it a try and learned my lesson.

Barska .223 BDC 6-24x40 IR 3G, January 14, 2011
Works well so far on my heavy barrel Savage .223 rifle. I've only had two shooting sessions so time will continue to tell.
Pros: Sighted in at 100 yards with 55 grainers, and stayed on after adjusting the turret for a target at 300. I really like the reticle, and the illumination option with red, greed, or blue for low light or against different backgrounds is a definite plus. Solid and attractive construction - looks great.
Cons: After 20x magnification it is not very clear with noticeable chromatic shift. BDC only out to 400 yards - after that you need holdover, but this is where the tactical reticle comes in to play. The side parallax adjustment and rear magnification adjustment are both a little stiff. My rifle bolt also hit the rear battery compartment/reticle turret forcing me to purchase higher scope rings.
For the price, you can't expect it to not have some flaws. However, overall I am happy with the purchase and it does what I need it to do. It serves well for the average target shooter or varminter. I could definitely see it being used in law enforcement applications where budget is an issue.

M4 Scope, January 15, 2012
After trying several scopes and mounts on my DPMS Sportical, this one is the most solid, quick target pick up, great accuracy and will hold it, the zero return is a must.
