Anyone have a MIL model they're thinking about selling? Can't seem to find a used model anywhere
Did Steiner just quietly build the MPO we have all been asking for? H6xi

Eurooptic has a pretty dang good price on em comparatively speaking
Why not use something like this? https://yhm.net/accessories/rails-mounts/scope-riser/ They're cheaper elsewhere but I recommend replacing the screws with good old socket cap screws.
That's essentially what I have with the swan sleeve. I've got some NF 1.125 on the way. Apparently they work on the swan sleeve with a mk5 with a 44mm objective so should be okay with the steiner being 42
Same. I’ve got a 2.5-10x42 nxs I’d never sell and they have been my go to for a lot of years. I will say that recently I got a mk5 2-10 cmr. As far as the features and use goes I’d put it ahead of the nxs. I haven’t used the Steiner but this mk5 2-10 with the cmr reticle is really awesome and the best I’ve used.
I was thoroughly impressed with the Steiner this past weekend. Took it out to 600 with the mk12 it’s a great looking optic. The reticle is pretty nice if a little on the thin side. Illumination was bright enough for a hot day in northern Louisiana. Had they had some sort of illuminated circle on the center dot it would be perfect
I have one of these now on loan from a friend (who may or may not have been influenced by my curiosity in this optic) for a few months while his rig is being built.
I must say that after a few months of shooting with the ZCO 2-10x30, the Steiner isn't a bad little optic.
If I had to put a number to it, it's probably 75% of the optic as the ZCO but at 40% of the price.
I certainly would take it over a 2.5-10x42 NXS NF any day of the week that was my favorite SPR optic back in the day
While the HTR reticle in the ZCO continues to impress me, I'm finding the reticle a little less friendly in terms of quick holds due to the small numerals at 12x. With the horizontal stadia extending further out, I wish they had either included the odd numbers as well or made the evens bigger if they were going to skip the odds. I'm curious to see how my feelings develop as time goes on with this on a small-frame DMR style gun. I can say I'm already considering getting one to put on a .22lr rig for use around the homestead.
I'm normally a "spare no expense" kinda guy, but this a neat little optic for the money.

Anyone here know if a spuhr or a badger C1 with the accessory ring cap will fit between the turret housing and objective?
This is the 2-12 on a Tier 1 mount with the accessory ring/dive board in this photo. It's a tight fit. Looking at the Badger accessory rings, they all seem a bit longer so it might be an issue.
The badger c1 w/ accessory ring doesn’t clear.
I ended up turning it on the lathe to make it fit.
