[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 568281, member: 4191"] Jon, I'm wondering if your statement includes the Sightron SIIIs in the under $1500 scopes. Have you put the Sightron SIIIs alongside the Weaver 3-15 Tactical in the field? Completed that kind of side by side comparison? I'm not challenging your statement at all. I've never even looked through one of the Weaver Tacticals, let alone completed a good field comparison. If you tell me the Weaver tactical outclasses the glass in the Sightron SIIIs, then I'll be looking into the Weaver Tactical - very seriously. I compared my first 6-24x50mm SIII to my IOR 3-18x42mm for about one hour one evening. The comparison started with good light and continued into fading light on targets at the 300 yard range. The resolution of the bullet holes was virtually identical with both scopes set on 18 power. But the light transmission was much better in the SIII. I now own and use three of the Sightron SIIIs. But I'm not partial to any make or model of scope, should I find a better value. [/QUOTE]
