[QUOTE="FIGJAM, post: 1617521, member: 71039"] No, they use it because that is who got the contract - based on some of the military contracts I’ve seen it isn’t always because it is the best, even though we would like to think that is the case. I am not saying that S&B is bad, but glass snobs and military sniper wannabes have their blinders on when it comes other companies who have made leaps and bounds. How many guys are shooting M700s with Leupold or S&B scopes solely because that is what some of our military guys use? This mentality also allows companies like leupold and remington and S&B to get lazy and coast on their military reputation while other companies are investing in R&D and putting out an equally good or superior products for less money.
