It's stock number 200384. PA=parallax adjustable (AO). I'm a little disappointed with this Burris. I put it on my RWS model 350.
The good: Short and light. I was able to put it on with low mounts. Low Leupold rimfires were just a scrunthair too low. Half to 3/4th of a millimeter taller and they would have worked. Worked with low Millett rimfires I had lying around. Also, sturdy construction and Burris warranty. Also, ostensibly focuses down to 7 yards (though strangely, at 10 yards the clarity was best with around a 30 yard setting and at 25 yards, clarity was best with about a 90 yard setting. )
The bad: This thing is pretty darn cloudy from 6-9x, even in bright sunlight. Marginal at 4-6x. Pretty decent at 3-4x, which is where I'll be using it most of the time, so it's OK for my purposes. My advice is to save another hundred and get a Leupold compact, or go with a standard-sized, 40mm scope and use medium rings. Shoulda got another Swift Premier or Bushnell Trophy instead. Live and learn. However, it's possible that with Burris's sturdy construction, it will have less issues with holding zero down the road than others mentioned. Probably best to save for Leupold, as per usual. Shoulda known. :banghead: Primary lesson learned is that I'll never buy another scope without either (a) buying it in person, or (b) buying on a SPECIFIC recommendation of exact model from a person with PERSONAL experience, such as at THR. I got carried away with wanting a LOW mount, for taking quick shots on close-in game, since the irons are going bye-bye.
[Edited: No, it wasn't the irons occluding the view. I had already taken off the front sight, and after rear sight removal, it's still cloudy. The verdict stands.]
Also good was SWFA's excellent service. www.riflescopes.com . It was around $249 - only a couple dollars more than Natchez, and the excellent service was worth it. Got here NEXT day by UPS ground.
