I recently purchaced a CZ 453 in 17HMR. It is the varmint with fluted barrel. I had a Weaver V16 about 10 years ago in the 4x16 fine cross hair with dot. I really liked the scope and for what i paid for it I thought it was well worth the money. Everything worked like it should and the glass was nice. I am set on getting another one and was wondering if the quality of the scopes has gone down hill. Anyone have any exsperiance with the newer scopes. Thanks ...DAN
