66,
I don't remember if my 2x6 scope was a "eagle" brand name, but they look the same. Mine had 1/2 " adjustment clicks. Mine was a piece a junk! after 5 shots from my SKS the reticle broke loose. I tossed it.

BUY Burris and you will never be unhappy.
Yep the cost a little more but you can run over it with your truck and they will take care of the problem no question asked. I have tried other brands and even own a couple of Leupold, howevere I prefer Burris to all others bar none.
just my 2 cents

Ron, You're right. Burris is a great scope. They give you great service, even if wasn't their fault.

I hate agreeing with 358 Winchester...........I have a couple of Burris scopes and the reason I purchased them is because I'm tired of replacing a scope every year..........pay a couple of extra dollars and you have a good scope for life.

Ask me .............I'm cheap and proud of it.

I can add to the favorable comments about Burris. I had difficulty with several brands due to eye relief problems. Ron put me on to the Burris a couple years ago and it is the best I've used.

Never had the sheckles to get a Leupold but have used my son's on occasion. Like the Burris better.

Eagle Eye rifle scopes are great as far as I'm concerned, I have 3 of them and have used them real hard since last spring, I was a little concerned about warranty but they are covered by lifetime warranty an a satisfaction guarantee, I talked to a fella that shoots 50 BMG and has over 700 shots through it, thats how i heard about them. They are priced right and I'm real pleased with them. Big sky cowboy
