I don't know what it is, but I just prefer the look of a smallish scope on most rifles. I only shoot 50-200 yds and not for competition, so I am looking at this Barska:
This unit is a 3-9x42mm "Contour" AC 10634 model, and it is only 9.8" long. You can get the deets here:

On this web page, Barska also refers to it as the "Hornet" series - dunno why two names....
Does anybody have experience with this scope for mid-range general shooting?
How about Barska in general? Where are these scope manufactured (I know their HQ is in California somewhere)?
What about compact scopes as a catagory? This can't be the only manufacturer that makes something in this form factor. Anybody else favor them? Any big down-side?
Thanks!
