IOR Valdada 5.8-40x56 Crusader FFP Scope

Bart from barts bullets has some demos and has been using the more powerful terminator model. You can drive railroad spikes with it. It is most likely the nicest scope ive ever seen. You can get in touch with him to discuss them or get a good deal on one.
 
I have seen this scope and was amazed by it. I sold one to a guy in Mississippi. He loves it. The most amazing thing about it with the difference between 5.8 and 40 you would think the scope would tunnel at lower power. It does not. Most first focal scopes tunnel on low power the new 40mm Valdadas do not. I have 3 valdadas. The glass is great. have not had any problems with them. PM me if you would like me to price one for you.
 
So in the end I bought the Crusader few months ago. I mounted it first on my 300 Win Mag to see if the scope will handle the recoil and everything works properly. Nothing happened, scope tracks perfectly. So I put on my heavy varmint 7mm-08 and I'm very happy with it. I wanted to order next piece but the dealer told the IOR set their production for MIL/MIL version because of demand on the US market. I was always MIL guy but in the last time I switched except one hunting scope (Zeiss V8) to MOA scopes. Hope that IOR will produce MOA version of the Crusader in near future again.

I hope you use it for a while and report back with a short review.

Most important would be durability/reliability. Even tho the exterior is built like a tank, I hope same thing goes for the insides.

The 4-28x50 Recon placed #7 in Cal Zant's massive high end tactical scope field test.
So obviously IOR know how to make a good scope.

Your scope looks like it means business !
