[QUOTE="djkynoch, post: 266546, member: 10627"] I have owned and used both a late model Sightron SIII 6-24x50 ie: made before 2008; and a new model made since 2008. I owned them both at the same time and compared the two. The new Sightron SIII that has been available since about May of 2008 is a totally different scope. The old one did have dark optics past about 16 power; but, the new one is way better. It is bright and clear all the way up to 24 power. I feel it is very comparable to a Nightforce optically. It has very good contrast and clarity. It also tracks dead on. I did not like my older model SIII; but, I love my new one!! Beware of buying a new in the box SIII though because there are still new in the box ones left on the market of the old one. The two scopes look a lot different so you can tell the new ones apart by looking at what is currently shown on their website. [/QUOTE]
