The Mountmaster 4-12x50 combines quality optics with a reasonable price point. The multi coated lenses exhibit little flare and the adjustable objective allows the crosshair focus to be tailored to ones individual eyesight. Reinforced lens mountings eliminate recoil damage so often experienced when conventional scope is mounted on a high power springer caused by the combination of forward and reverse recoil. One can spend two or three times as much on a scope and see little, if any, improvement. Simply, this scope is a good value.
