My savage 22-250 with Bushnell banner is a tack driver out to 200 yards.

Savage 17hmr has either a Simmons or tasco on it. Its dead on out to 100yards.

I bought the Barska at a huge discount (alarm bell). Had never heard of them, and at that time there was next to nothing about them known. And now I know one thing about them; I have bought my first and last Barska.

It is sighted in at 100 yards now with the Bushnell 4x on it. Groups nicely. It feels like it is near the end of travel for windage, but not at it. I don't mess with my windage once its sighted in unless I have to so I think I will leave it alone.

Even now the difference between where the scope is aimed and where the bore is pointed is enough to notice with no doubt. Put the crosshairs on an object 50 yards out and you can't see the object through the bore unless you move to one side far enough that you can't see one side of the barrel.

I am thinking of getting a nice Nikon Monarch or Buckmaster though.
