I have a Nikon Buckmaster 6-18 x 40 Target Dot. I also have a Monarch 3-12 BDC. The Buckmaster has been shot off all 8 of my T/C Encore barrels (.223 - .30-06) without fail. It's my load testing scope for my Encores. It's solid. However, if you change the knobs to the "Target" Style and leave them on, they appear to be weak. Just an observation I saw.... no failure yet and I've tossed that scope around alot... just something to keep in mind. If you leave the stock knobs on, they fit under the caps and there isn't an issue.
The Monarch 3-12 BDC is the Hunting Scope. Rock solid... clear.... and I've got distances dialed for each line.
