Some people rave about them, but I can only conclude they have never used anything better, because they are a budget scope with lower performance then the equivalent Other branded models - or at least to my eyes anyway

I bought the £300 Discovery 5-25x50 HD version and it was ok for spinners on ranges, but just not clear enough when trying to focus on a paper targets. In comparison to the other scopes I use in this range - Aztec Emerald, Hawke Airmax/Endurance/Sidewinder it was simply not as well made or opticaly as sharp, but it was strangely clear and bright

Personaly I'll never have another, it felt cheap, and at that price point there are far better scopes for the money.

thanks james, i think i will give them a miss

Check out Valiant scopes at OpticsWarehouse. I bought the Zephyr 10x44 fixed mag one for a ton seventy and it's brilliant, clear as a bell, very nicely made and with over a hundred quid off. They have several variable mag models in the same promotion for about two hundred quid. Well worth a look, I'm considering getting a second. (NB, I don't work there and have no connection other than it's a good scope and a decent retailer:) .)
