shepherd scopes

Post by 204hotrod »

Hi; everyone.
I have been lurking about here for a couple of years, but just joined. Have been shooting the fantastic 204 for several years now. I have a remmy 700 VLSS topped with a Millett varmint 4-16 X 56 mil-dot w/ 30 mm tube. Jewell trigger. GREAT SHOOTER. However, I have heard some scuttlebutt about the shepherd scopes, and was wondering if anyone had any input. Good, bad or indifferent. Thanks in advance Don
Are you gonna pull them pistols, or just whistle dixie??

I dont have a Shepard, but the ones I've seen were pretty nice. The only thing I didn't care for was the adjustable objective, I prefer a side focus. Just a matter of personal preff.

I have one, a scope reticuled for a .22 RFM on a Browning bolt.

It's OK I guess. A little light in construction with optic on a par with many scopes manufactured in the Orient.
