This review is only a bench test. I’ve not yet shot with it.First off let me say for the price this scope packs a big punch, soooo many goodies come with it.This is one chunky heifer, it comes in at 28oz without the mount. But that is to be expected considering the bell & barrel size. The dimensions listed for this scope are incorrect. The bell is 44mm not 40mm, all the better for light gathering IMHO. Correct dimensions are 44mm objective(bell), 34mm tube, 2-12x. My intended use is on a SPR rifle.- General build: Beefy, robust, but I'm not going to do any drop testing to prove that point, however I believe this will hold up well in day to day use. The touch elements on this scope are grippy due to the aggressive knurling, better than the previous Tango MSRs I've seen.- Glass: I have an unfair advantage here, I have 2015 vision, to me average glass looks great and great glass absolutely spectacular. To my eyes the glass is pretty good, it resolves very well, I was surprised at this for its price point. I can easily glass deer in low light in a thicket at 400yards.-Zoom Range: From 2 to 12 power it's quite good, the side focus is a must. To my eyes at 12 power I'm not seeing any real darkening in the image. Image quality does not degrade at 12power. But again I have to say, my 2015 visions gives me an advantage, if that makes any sense. Qualifier; After eye surgery I noticed my scopes and bino’s had a better image than before.-Reticle: FFP MRAD Milling, 1/10 mill per click, with thick German bars, but there’s a fly in the ointment, or should I say fuz. There a little piece of fuz on the reticle, I'm assume this happens from time to time on new releases, working out QC.-Side Focus: Parallax setting is from 75yards to Infinity. This is exactly what a higher power LPVO needs and it works well to keep reticle plane and target sharp and accurately aligned.- Illumination: Red and again very surprise, this is actually day light bright, no kidding it's really bright. Also to top it off, you have power off points between each illumination power level like on the expensive big boy LPVO scopes.- Turrets: Windage turret and markings. Much better that I expected for this price range. Clicky and tactile. Top turret. A little mushy, but still very useable, even for dialing. It's zero locking with a pull up turret to dial. Again for the money, this is nice. I do own a few big boy scopes$$ and this Tango MSR really does compete with them at some of these levels.Dimensions: For a LPVO it's on the big and heavy side, but heck you have a huge tube at 34mm plus the 44mm bell/objective. To my eye I notice the difference compared to my 30mm straight tube LPVOs in regards to image clarity and light gathering.Eye Box: The objective and tube size really makes the eye box shine. You have a huge, I mean huge exit pupil which translates into a bigger eye box on a FFP scope. Yes, you can't compare it to a SFP eye box with is very good, but for a FFP scope this eye box is not good, even better than some of my big boys. I don't recall the size but I think it's around 9mm exit pupil.Focus Ring: Not stiff, about just right.Atlas Mount: Not bad, I have to do a little work on it, the lower rings have pinch points that need to be sanded down. It's not real bad, I just happen to have a lot of OCD and notice everything, good and bad. I guess that's why I went into engineering. Whoever torqued the screws on the rings went nuts, it took all my strength to unloosen them.Summary: Reviews are very subjective, this is my take on it. This scope is a big chunky girl, not for running and gunning, but fine for my intended use in Eastern Oregon, on a SPR. For the money, all I can say is get it if you’re looking for a 2-12 power LPVO on the cheap. I'd love to see a side by side comparison between this and the Athlon Optics Helos BTR Gen II 2-12x42mm. I'd love to see C_Does review this scope. C_Does, if you are reading this, this scope needs to be reviewed. I will most likely swap this scope for another one because of the fuz on the reticle. For me the Tango MSR 2-12×44 LPVO is a keeper, another tool in my inventory. I'm looking forward to using this on my ranch for medium to long range work. Being that the base power is 2x, I think it will useful at short ranges as well.
