I have one mounted on a Savage 10 FCP HS-Precision and it works very well.

I have one mounted on a Savage 10 FCP HS-Precision and it works very well.
Being a FFP the cross hairs grow in size as you zoom in and will cover small objects at range.
The range I shoot at is a 300 yard range and I can reliably see my bullet holes in the targets at that range that ARE NOT in the black.
If I print out some custom targets on 8x11 paper with a gray shade instead of black I can spot the holes.
The optics are clear but not near as good as my ATACR on my AR30-A1 338 - that said I have been very satisfied with the scope and the performance.
At max zoom things are a tad fuzzy so I run up to 23 power max but generally shoot with it set at 10 - 12x
I purchased mine in January of 2013 from SWFA.com
