[QUOTE="travelr47, post: 588939, member: 5339"] Sightron vs Weaver is a simple question! Weaver all the way! Regardless, which scope may claim to be better, the Sightron I owned wouldn't hold zero. And that was on a M96 Swedish Mauser, 6.5x55 cartridge. The scope was a Sightron II 3x9, MilDot. I paid over $400 for. Keep this in mind, the 6,5x55 has a maximum pressure cycle of 46,000 CUP. My rifle was rebarreled by PACNOR, 1:8 twist, 22". My loads were either at 46K Cup, or less. Recoil was nominable. The Sightron couldn't hold zero if it's life depended upon it. The jerks at Sightron attempted to tell me I had the wrong bases for the scope. Funny. The Bushnell's I've mounted on this rifle have held zero. The rifle shoots sub-MOA, WHITHOUT Sightron mounted! You judge for yourself. [/QUOTE]
