[QUOTE="wilkup, post: 998979, member: 74276"] Does anyone have any experience with the Steiners? I've had the opportunity to peak through some of their binocs. Needless to say, I was amazed, but never had anything of comparable quality to judge it against. I've heard these optics are far under-priced for what you're getting and the glass used by these guys is comparable to S&B. Not sure if this is true, but it'd be nice if it were ;) I also like that they come with a ballistic reticle, which will help me avoid the need for dialing. Here's my updated (growing) list: Steiner GS3 3-15x50 (Like the BDC reticle, and the extra mag would be nice at distance, but is not something I really need. The model with the zoom equivalent to other models doesn't have a 50mm objective) Zeiss Conquest DL 3-12x50 (Supposedly excellent glass) Kahles Helia C 2.5-10x50 (Like the FFP, but bummed there's no BDC reticle, custom elevation turret option would make this my first choice) Swarovski Z3 4-12x50 BT L (LIGHT SCOPE! It's my understanding that there's no difference in glass between their various scope lines, is this correct?) [/QUOTE]
