30mm tubes have been around for many years. Kase and I

used the Tasco 3X with the small dot in a 30mm tube for years in our hunts up at Tellico junction. They were great scopes. Kase used one on his Dan Wesson in 445 Super Mag for years. If I see one on e-bay I buy it. There are 2 down sides to the 30mm scopes, one is the absence of rings from some makers. The other is that most 30mm scopes are European scopes and are high priced, in most cases out of the normal hunter's budget. They are also a bit bigger and add a bit of bulk to a rifle or handgun set up.
