[QUOTE="Jon A, post: 568322, member: 319"] I shouldn't have made it sound like I felt the Weaver was the best exclusively as I feel the SIII 6-24's I've tested are very similar as far as resolution, etc, but as mentioned they don't offer similar magnification ranges to compare. I haven't done that side by side with one set on 20X or 15X and compared with a Weaver but it would be interesting. My impressions from how they compared with other scopes at the time makes me guess it would be a toss-up or very close in a pure resolution test. In short, I do consider them as sort of in the same class when it comes to overall glass quality. That does come as a surprise to many as few have experience with the new FFP Weaver Tacticals but that may be changing now since they offer matching knobs, etc, and it seems the "secret is out." I really feel they're about as high a quality scope as is available in that price range. Yes, there are scopes out there that will beat them but you need to spend nearly twice the money. [/QUOTE]
