@koshkin I know was working with the first two. He might be able to give you a pretty good comparison.

I have the Strike Eagle and like it. I have only seen the other two at SHOT.

Ah, my bad. Was thinking about your instagram post on the SwampFox 5-30.

They have a 5-30x Kentucky Long and 5-25x Warhawk.

How do you think it compares to the G2 PST?
Does the 56mm objective help in the 22-25x range where the PST can struggle?

I'm surprised you like that glass, I found it really lacking.

I do realize it's a fairly cheap scope so there are probably large variances, and glass is very dependent on the user, particularly in lower price ranges. Still surprised though.

Did your copy not have excessive CA and poor edge to edge clarity? If you reviewed it and I didn't see it, my apologies.

I have it now and optically quality is quite good for the money. CA is well controlled and so is the distortion.
