Mueller MAPV451440 4.5-14 x 40mm Rifle Scope

Lots of scope for the money

This is my Third Mueller scope. As with the first two, I am not disappointed. Features usually found on much more expensive scopes. Clean lines and easy adjustments that are repeatable up and down the scale. I have had much more expensive scope that do not deliver as well. The glass is crisp and clear at all magnification levels. Construction appears rugged and ready for the challenge of recoil. I do not know how it will hold up on heavy kickers. This one is on my 30-06 bolt gun. My first two are on Varmint rounds with much less recoil. Read full review

For the money...

Whenever a reviewer says "It's a good xxxx for the money" watch out. It means something doesn't work well but reviewer will put up with it. Same with this scope. I am pleasantly surprised with image quality at all magnifications, including the highest. Magnification adjustment is firm but good. Reticle is good. Elevation and windage adjustments are passable. Maybe. Here is where the "good for the price" comes in. I mounted this scope on an inexpensive Marlin .17 cal rifle to replace the Marlin scope that came with the rifle. When I first got it zeroed I shot small groups at 100 yards and the same at 75 and 25 yards. But after I let barrel cool the scope was way off. The settings wandered. I re-zeroed but they wandeed again and kept doing so after each 5 rounds or so. They seemed to stabilize after about 30 rounds. It might be just a quirk with a brand new scope or it might be a "for the money" issue and will never go away. It will be pretty useless if it doesn't stabilize and then I'll just junk it and put the Marlin scope back on. It shouldnt take 50 rounds! In my experience you have to pay at least $400 to get a scope with no issues but I thought I'd give this one a try on a very cheap rifle with virtually no recoil.
If the scope finally holds its settings I'll post a comment. In the meantime, based on this experience, don't expect a complex optical-mechanical instrument to perform all it's functions well "for the money"Read full review

Great optic for the money

I have used several dozen of these scopes for custom 10/22 builds and have had great results.
In fact, some of my customers like them so well that they wind up buying more for their other rifles both rim-fire and center-fire. They are one of the best scopes out there at this price point.Read full review

excellent choice for a budget minded shooter

I found this to be an excellent quality scope. it was mounted on a Savage Axis in 270 Winchester, I used the Leopold mount and rings with the windage adjustments. zeroed at 100 yards the scope was very clear and the A.O was accurate at 10 power, reset to 300 yards at 14 power the scope was clear and the A.O was on the money, reset to 100 yards at 8 power the scope held zero, after 40 shots have had no issuesRead full review

Nice Scope

This is what I was looking for. The scope was easy to sight in at 50 yds.
