Long and very non-critical eye relief. I shot till about sunset so even though it wasn't real low light it seemed bright enough. Not quite as bright as the Bausch and Lomb Balvar it replaced but the gloss finished B & L just didn't look quite right. 100 yard groups on 5 power stayed at 1.5 inches. With a 9 power I can get some 1 inch groups but my old eyes can just barely see the 1/2 inch bull at 100 yds. The scope is supposed to hold up well with recoil so a few more sessions should tell the tale there. I may need to change the rings to get another 1/4 inch of scope height for a quick mount in the woods.
