Is this a true 1x scope, allowing for both eye open shooting at close range?

Yes,I can and do shoot easily at 10yds. I is very clear. You do have to account for elevation if you "0" at 50yds. I too would not spend the money on the illuninated scope. It is not noticable in even cloudy days.

This is not a 'scope' as it has no targeting apparatus. It is merely a magnification device. As such, there is no way to 'zero' it because there is no need to 'zero' it. If your other optics are zeroed, this will not effect them. So, my answer is no.

Not sure but for the money this is an excellent choice. I have 0 complaints with this optic. I also bought the 2x magnifier, which is nice if you are shooting 100+ yards

Eye relief is unlimited due to being 1x. Even at indirect view. As long as the dot is on targetUse mine at about 8 inches.

Yes. After adjusting your power on the eye piece the side focus does the job. I use the scope for 300 yd Benchrest and it has very good optics for its price range.

I have the 1x to 4x. It is not the best scope for any long range accuracy on a small target. But, I do, for what I am using it for in 3 Gun competition, it is working really good for me. Without getting the instructions out again, I can't remember if the BDC radical was caliber specific. I have never found a caliber specific radical to be accurate for me, anyway. So if you keep that in mind I think you would be fine on the .308.

I wear bifocals and also use this indoors and outdoors, and find it to be quite a good scope out to 200 yards for 22 caliber and up. Anything farther this isn't what you would want.

Yes. It is a full co witness scope. Works great with a fold down iron sight. I also ordered 1 to use for a flashlight. It sets both scope and light foward enough out of way for hand grip.

No, its just a basic 2 lenses scope. Its a great scope at 500 yards. You get what you pay for and i think it was only about $45

Speaking solely for my scope and many other 1-4 scopes it's not a true 1x therefore the front sight does not show up. If you really focus hard you might see it but it's in the bottom 1/3 of the viewing area on a 30mm bodied scope.

Almost positive it is, granted it should say in the item description. You can also check the stock number on the Vortex site. I have the same scope on my bolt action and M14, awesome glass by the way, only drawback is I had to put a rubber stopper on top of the battery to keep the illumination from cutting out. Vortex will happily fix it (if there is a problem) but that solution worked fine for me, I made sure to abuse the hell out of it after and no issues!

No, this sight requires a magnifier. Anything posted with a 1x magnification is required to have a separate magnifier.I hope this answers your questions as I own this same sight. It is very nice for close quarters to medium range,anything further I would recommend a scope.

Yes. It is very tight but works. I love mine keeps everything out of my field of view and helps see the inside reticle.

Yes, one issue with really close targets is that at high power it may be blurry, but turning the power down to 3x should resolve that (besides at less than 25y do you really need 9x?). The second issue (very minor unless you are looking for single hole accuracy) is that parallax compensation is set to 100y according to the nikon website. So at 25y, small eye movement will shift the zero, but a good shooter knows to always place his head in the same exact spot for that reason. A better purchase for you if you shoot only 22lr is the nikon P-22 2-7x32 Matte BDC 150, which has parallax comp set to 50y.

I think that you'll be disappointed. It's a good scope for it's intended usage, but I don't think the maximum magnification of 18x is adequate for 1,000 yard shooting. You may want to look at the Sightron SII 24x-44AO for $580 or the 36x for $650. Those prices are from OpticsPlanet and include free shipping.

Since it is a true 1x scope, I have found that they do After around 25 yards.
