Thank you for sharing!  Though I'm no where near in the market for a $1,500-7,000 rifle scope, it's nice to see an unbiased comprehensive review.  Very well done.

I find it funny that they chose to eliminate the SWFA Super Sniper becausw it was "too cheap"


That test is bogus!!!

First time I did the long distance stuff before I had a gun, I shot it with a $90 Osprey scope my friend had on his Armalite. Worked fine, even though it was horribly canted...
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

also, keep in mind, the mottos" What the pro's use" or "what the experts"  is missleading as the stuff they use is usually sponsored (given to them).

I have a couple buddies that use the SWFA stuff, and well, it's competitive!!!
