[QUOTE="CB11WYO, post: 986510, member: 57339"] I've helped two buddies in the last month set up and sight in their Huskemaws. This is the first I've been around them. Both were 5-20x Pro's: Very solid feeling scope, good glass. A very positive/ "definite" feel in the clicks of the turrets. Big knobs, easy to see. Accurate in their adjustments. Zero-stop is nice, I could get used to having that :) The turret engineering is sturdier IMO. Instead of using Leupold-style set-screws around the circumference of the turret to hold it in place, the Huskemaw turret slips down over a splined shaft with one large coin-slotted screw tightened on top to hold it in place. A bit more robust I would say. Cons: Maybe a bit on the heavy side for weight. The clicks are 1/3 MOA (I prefer 1/4 MOA for ease of math, but this could be learned). And the price... they run $1400-$1500 don't they?? Little pricey for me. One of the aforementioned friends works for a company that is a Huskemaw dealer so he got his for $1000 (that would be doable IMO). Overall I like the feel of them but not enough to overcome my preference of 1/4 MOA adjustments and my love of <$1000 Leupolds :D Just my .02 [/QUOTE]
