Frank,
I recently went through the Tasco web site and did not see a scope with a square tube. Their "TV reticle" scopes use a rectangular mask for reasons best known to Tasco's marketing people. The tubes are cylindrical. All round lenses produce a circular image. All the mask does is mask off what the shooter sees.
