From all that I have learned from this forum, most people do not favor the BSA scope.

So what is the NC Star.

NC star is a crappy scope, that i beleave is made by asia optical. ive heard of a few of the 3-9x42 tactical scopes lasting a little while, but not long, this is about the worse scope you can buy, and 99% of the time, they are scrwed up before they are even shipped out of the factory. even BSA has a little more quality control than NC has, they just arent worth the time spent to order them. BSA's actually last a little while, not long until the reticle turns, or something happens to it.

Cory, you and I disagree on this.  I think NcStar and BSA are equally crappy.

 

I do have a couple of pistol NcStar scopes that have not died yet, but I barely use them.

Thanks guys, I know you get what you pay for.  I was looking at one with the illuminated reticle and thought just for the heck of it, give it a try.  Its so cheap, I could put it on my 17cal just to see what happens.  I guess I will take the chance. 
I bought a tactical scope Illuminated reticle for my Tikka T3 Tactical 223 cal. It cost about 1900.00 Canadian so I know I can depend on that one to not go bad.  Well It better not.

Well Have a good one

 I agree about the NcStar's being crappy!!!! Got a 6x42mm from them! It wasn't worth the time! I do like what I read on the new Leupold fixed power's though! You really owe it to yourself to get a quality optic. If you hunt, you owe it to your game too!!!!
