Has anyone use or have used Konus scopes before?  If so, what is your opinion?

I have a Konus Pro on my .204 I have never had any problems with it.  Stays true and easy to aquire your target.  I don't think you could go wrong with it.  It is illuminated.  If I had to find something wrong with it, I would have to say that the light inside the scope is on the circumference of the bell and if turned up all the way, it washes the scope out.  The lower settings work fine and are preferred anyway.  Saying that, I have never had any problems with any of my scopes.  My favorite is my TruGlo.

My son has a konus on his 22 and so far has done very well.Its only a 32mm objective but has a larger field of view than the tasco 40mm that was on it before.

Thanks gus.

The next question is this then.  If I get this Konus, should I put it on my .223 or .17 hmr?

Swarter2,Depends on which model scope you plan on using.I would look at the parralex setting on the scope,or you could get one with an adjustable objective and it would work well with any gun you choose.
