[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 508476, member: 4191"] The Sightron SIIIs are an excellent scope for their price range. I'm reverting solely to the 6-24x50mm LR models for my rifles. Been waiting for their 6-24x50mm LRMOA model, which is just being released retail right now. I've used two of their 6-24x50mm LRMD scopes for the past several years. They're substantially lighter in weight than the Nightforce and other similar powered scopes, which is of great benefit to me on my packing rifles. Virtually ALL of my hunting is backpack hunting, and I'm all done with the 30 oz and heavier rifle scopes. Cursed their weight for far too long. When I compared my first SIII to much heavier and more expensive scopes, I found the SIII to provide better light transmission and resolution at 2/3 the weight, and 2/3 or less the cost. If I decide their new MOA reticle is as good as I expect, I may sell my two SIII Mil Dot scopes and end up with four of their new SIII LRMOA scopes. And maybe one of their lower powered SIII variables on my brown bear rifle. [/QUOTE]
