This scope developed by John Unertl in the mid-1970s is actually manufactured by U.S. Optics, a company which had a contract to refurbish the original military scopes. The scope is an improvement of the originals using a tapered coil spring to allow for very accurate adjustments. These scopes were never offered to the general public which created a very high demand. U.S. Optics then produced a limited run for the public and when these had sold another limited run of 100 was made before production ended. These scopes which were made of the best materials with modern machinery compare to any of the best scopes on the market. The scope features an integral bullet drop compensator for M118LR ammunition having 1/2″ MOA adjustments. Scope is marked on the left side with “U.S.O. / U.S.M.C. / S#3144”. Mil Dot reticle, fixed parallax. Scope is carried in a Unertl type mt. which is a one-piece base. Scope has all black Butler Creek flip up caps.
