Re: Sightron scope
I have that exact model. A minor quibble is that the side focus knob is hard to turn and very sensitive. It can take several attempts to get the parallax out. Its not a major thing because that process only has to be done once at the preparation stage of a range. One thing that may put some people off is the weight. They are one of the heaviest scopes in common use. This can be an issue for some, including F/TR where overall weight saving is a critical factor. But generally its been very reliable (never needed servicing in the 10 years I've used it), and for all practical purposes, optically as good as any scope I've had, which includes a NF Comp.

Re: Sightron scope
I've got two of them and I'm very happy. What Alan said,it's true but not an issue. Some time ago I used a march scope and I couldn't justify the price! That's my 2 cents.

Re: Sightron scope
I had one on a 243 Ackley and it was a great scope. Its optics were as good as my Nightforces (in my opinion). My only gripe, and it wasn't a major concern on a target rifle, was the same as Allens...very fiddly to focus.
