Thank you for validating everything I've been saying about the Steiner all year. They are the safest choice in a >$2000 riflescope for many reasons. 2014 promises to be an exciting chapter in the Beretta-owned Steiner family. Scott

For $500 - $1000 value, the Sightron SIII gets the nod in our book. For $500 and under, the Vortex Viper would be our choice. You learn a lot about a company when you see their best stuff, and see how it stacks up. The reason why the SIII gets all the accolades is b/c it is Sightron's...

I see the Sightron SIII 6-24x50 isn't getting the love it should. Awesome glass, 100 MOA of reticle adjustment, superb controls, fit, and finish, rugged as any NXS I'm willing to bet and half the price!! If you can live with 1/4 MOA knobs with a mildot this is a superior choice, IMO. I would...

Wow, that's an interesting product, do you have a link? Scott

Thanks, my friend, but I don't think that will ever happen :)

The Big sky has similar internals, but the SIII has a different objective lens spec and assembly, which results in better color management and resolution. The SII Big Sky will be similar to NXS in execution. The SIII is better. Scott

Nice!! So much for this spotter being available in 90 days (as I was told at SHOT). I can't even get them!! These promise to be the spotter of choice for many this year. There is even a compact mildot reticle model coming! Thanks for the review. Scott

The SIII will be better for long range, but the Big Sky will be better for hunting. The Big Sky has 80 MOA of travel, it's shorter, lighter, and has better FOV at low power. It has a 1-inch tube. The SIII will give you a better long range sight picture, and more reticle travel, but it's...

Sightron Big Sky with 80MOA of adjustment and glass that is as good as any.

10-4. Let the field data come rolling in! I just thought the Swaro were $900+, but i haven't shopped for one in awhile.

Phorwath, I agree the optics on the Victory aren't any better than the Swaro, but i still liked the Zeiss better. Based on beam divergence specs, the Swaro should range further. Fi nally, there are Swaro LRFs for $750-$800??? Do tell. Scott

Better optics than a Mark 4, they currently shoot that scope on a .50 at Vortex headquarters, tracks like a razor, a great scope value. Scott

I hate to say this, but it appeared to me the Bushy was better indoors compared to the Lupy Mark 4, for a street price less than half the Lupy! The Vortex Tac scope promises to be a market class leader, can't wait to check out either optic!

I did not. I've heard a lot of buzz about these and wished i had been directed to look at them. I do this for you guys. You can bet I'll check them out in the future.. Scott

Sightron smokes the VX-3 in nearly all phases. It's my top choice (SIII and SII Big Sky) in that price point. I like the Vortex Viper better than the VX-3 for a fraction of the cost. Scott
