[QUOTE="Jeff In TX, post: 58270, member: 1522"] Purchase the IOR and never look back. I own 3 Mark 4 Leuy's and even Leuy's best can't compare to glass of the IOR scope. I did a little test last year while pig hunting. I had my son in the blind who was using his .243 with a 2.5-10X42mm tactical IOR. I had my tactical .308 with a Leuy 6.5-20X50mm Mark 4 M1LR scope. First there is no comparison when looking through the scopes when they are side-by-side. The IOR glass is night and day above the Leuy. At dusk I evaluated them for light transmission. I set them both at the same zoom settings. Even with the 50mm objective, the Leuy gave out almost 2 full minutes earlier than the IOR with it's 42MM objective. Better yet, I set the Leuy on 6.5 power and the IOR on 10X and the IOR still out performed the Leuy in light gathering. Go IOR and never look back. I'll never own another Leuy. [/QUOTE]
