I bought Burris Compact 6x new for 77/22 Ruger when they first came out in 80s. The scope was clear and no problems with adjustments. It was basically for squirrels and I didn’t like field of view. I bought top of line Redfield 4x and made fine rig. Still on there today. I have Weaver K series from 2.5x to 12x that were bought new when guns were bought new from back in 60s. I never bough varibles until forced by manf dropping fixed powers. Biggest scope I had was Redfield 16x on a Win 70, 220 Swift.
