[QUOTE="Mike in Texas, post: 79772, member: 1889"] XOTIC has the best lens retention system; placed in mounts and then screwed into place with 3 screws 120 degrees apart, securing the entire lens mount, for each lens. IOR has bright glass and great adjustments, hard to make a bad choice when buying IOR. The SS scope has a track record better than most name brand scopes I finally killed one after 50,000 rounds, actually just wore it out dialing firing solutions. I've had it on a 9 pound unbraked 338 lapua, thrown it off a 36 foot tower, shot a group ( several dozen groups) by shooting a round, throwing the scoped rifle to the ground forcefully, ( enough to actually shear off the Harris bipod attached to the rifle) then shooting another, etc. Never broke one that way or had one shift zero. Have done the same thing with the XOTIC. My IOR stayed on the unbraked 338 lapua until I sold the entire thing, and it survived nicely. [/QUOTE]
