[QUOTE="beretta_man11, post: 1271219, member: 23478"] I've spent a little time behind the Minox now and compared it to a few of my other scopes, 2.5-10x40 prostaff 5 3-12x42 prostaff 7 3-12x42 diamondback HP 5-25x56 atacr The Bads- the BDC reticle in my zx5i 2-10x50 is very thin, luckily it has the illumination that helps you pick up on it. The turrets are odd in the fact they do not end in a whole number, instead, it has 12.5moa per rev, odd... The zoom ring is a little stiff. The glass, while very clear, doesn't seem to have the color pop that others did. The Goods- Again, the glass is very clear and low light performance is very good. The clicks in the turrets are tactile and tracked correctly. I like the location of the illumination as well as when it is idle for so long, if it the scope is laid over, or if the scope is stood vertically, the illumination is turn off, very neat feature. The eyebox is very good, I have no problem getting behind the scope and being very comfortable. I was extremely surprised by the Prostaff 7. The glass has very good color/contrast and gave up very little to the minox as far as the optics go. If paying full price ($350 for the PS7 and $600 for the zx5i) I'd pick up another Prostaff 7.
