Eagle Eye Optics 2.5-10X56 illuminated reticle rifle scope

Hey fellas,
I'm in the process of finding an affordable rifle scope to mount on my new Thomson Center Encore in .223. I plan on using this gun mostly for night hunting so most of my shots will be 150 yards or less. I've owned many leupolds, nikons, busnells, and a few simmons scopes so I'm pretty familar with the big brands. I came across this Eagle Eye Optics 2.5-10X56 illuminated reticle rifle scope for 225.00 online. oh, this scope has the bigger 30mm tube also. Should be pretty bright if the optics don't suck to bad.

Is anyone familar with these scopes? I was thinking about giving it a try. As long as I don't mount the scope its 100% returnable and it comes with a unlimited lifetime warranty if I do mount it. I guess I could mount it and return it if I don't mark the tubes. If anyone has tried one of these or knows anything about them I'd appreciate some input. Thanks for the help.

I've been doing some more checking on these scopes and I believe these scopes may just be just a generic chinese scope that get a new lable. I'm sure they are the same scopes you can buy on www.sportsmanguide.com for half the price. By the way there are some good deals on there right now for hunting gear. They do carry a lot of the name brand stuff these days at close out prices. I'm going with a nikon 3.5-10 x 50 with a illuminated reticle. Not worth the hassle of trying one of the unknown namebrand knock-offs. Too close to hunting season. Sorry if my previous post sounded like I an advertisment or endorsement of qualityriflescopes.com or eagle eye optics. I was just trying to see if anyone knew anything about them. If I come across a good deal I feel like I should pass along the info.
