Konus Scope updates

[Trey45]

I was reading through some old threads from around 2 years ago and noticed a few of you had/have Konus scopes. How are those scopes holding up so far? I recently bought my second Konus Pro M30, they're the clearest and brightest scopes I own, most if not all my other rifles have Weaver scopes on them, I'm a K4 junkie and not ashamed to admit it. When I bought a Savage model 25 it needed something with some power, having had a 1-4 power Konus Pro M30 on a VEPR for about a month I knew the quality was there. I guess my concerns are long term quality, although Konus offers a full lifetime warranty. So for those of you who have had your Konus for a while now, are you still pleased with its performance? Any issues or troubles so far?

So no one has a Konus update? 2 yrs ago a few of you were talking about how much you liked your Konus scopes. I guess the honeymoon is over?

Still have both of mine; 6-24X44 Konus Pros. Both still functioning perfectly. A friend got one as a Christmas present from his girlfriend; 3-10X40. He loves it. Wish they had something in between the two.

I have one, but have not used it much. Will try to rectify that situation this summer. :)

I just got rid of my M30 6-24. I did have to send it in when on my Encore 7mm barrel. After about 70 rounds the reticle started to turn counter clockwise. I sent it back for warranty work after e-mailing their business in FL. They had a new scope at my door almost before they received my scope. I was very pleased. The scope overall was decent, but not great. I guess you can't expect too much for a scope that can be had for under $300 from opticsplanet. I will say it was better up to about 18x than the 3 Nikon Buckmasters that I have owned. Above 18x it got a bit fuzzy, but overall I was impressed. Only reason I sold it was the guy who bought the AR I had it sitting on wanted the scope too, so I let him pay for it!
