[QUOTE="ejones338, post: 313851, member: 15266"] Great review! It certainly gives me another scope to think about. That however does not make things easier! The hardest thing about putting together a long range rig has to be the optics. Unless of course you can afford to drop what I think is a burdensome amount of cash and go right to the top. Where the top is will probably never be known. I have been delaying my next optics purchase for about six months now and have been using a mid range nikon, but I now have a rifle that has a cheaper no frills scope. No manufacturer makes a scope that does or has everything. Generally I find that if a person makes a list of everything they want in a scope, they will have to sacrifice one or two things when they finally make a purchase. So I think that I will go somewhat affordable (has to be under $1000) and save myself the pain that I see so many others going through. To many people seem to have been spoiled by the really high end scopes and now BELIEVE that it is wrong to not have a high end overpriced scope on everything they own. The guys like yourself that are now writing good comparison reviews on some of these new affordable optics will probably pump some new life into long range shooting and hunting, and I thank you for not suggesting that the optics are EVERYTHING and should be from brand A or B like so many others suggest all to often.
