Re: S&B PMII 4-16x50 single rotation turret Hunting pard and I got two of the very first 4-16x50 PMIIs when they first became available in 2000. Every season they go in 50 yard increments from 300 out to 700 and have never let us down. Neither one has ever needed service. The single turn...

Re: Anybody using Sightron S3 8-32x56? I like the 8-32x56 Sightron but.... The side AO is very fussy.On hot days with alot of boil going on,its very hard to tell boil from focus. On hot days it makes it almost impossible to tell if your getting the parrallax out. It has one of the...

Re: Sightron SIII 6-24x50mm Side Focus Mildot Scope The 6.5-24x50 is an excellant tool for the money. Equal to loopie or better glass. Flat out better adjustments. If It craps out on you...you get a new one. In the field. At the range. dave
