[QUOTE="gahlizard, post: 298692, member: 11978"] +1 for alg i have been fortunate enough to compare many thousands of dollars of glass side by side. at one time we had a 6.5-20MK4, 8.5-25MK4, 5.5-22NSX, 3.2-17USO, 4-16PM2 and a 3-15Premier. the results did surprise me. with all of them at 15x magnification, the schmidt&bender and premier were the best...hands down, but they were also the most expensive. at max magnification the 20x leupolds and nightforce were the same, but it seems that 25x is too much to ask from the leupold glass...the resolution just isnt there. the USO was not much better than the leupold or the nightforce. from personal experience dialing from 200-1385yards, the 20x MK4 tracks beautiful, it seems to be rugged, the price is quite a bit lower than the competition and it can be up to 3/4lbs lighter than some of the other glass listed. i dont mind the weight, i own a PM2, Premier 3-15 and 5-25 and a NSX5.5-22. if weight or price was an issue i would have to purchase a MK4...also the leupold TMR reticle is my favorite and wish i could have it installed in all of my glass. everyone has an oppinion. this was mine. thanks:D [/QUOTE]
