Can we get a review? At least a pic or two of the actual unit? Tacking, glass, price? I would like to put this on my next build if the NF hasnt spoiled me so bad I cant stand anything else.

Here is a link to one of the threads here about it. I have still yet to get out and test mine.

at least a pic of the turrets is nice. What was your cost?

I finally have been able to run my Weaver Tactical 4-20x50 through its paces. So far it is repeatable. Did the box test and placed all rounds right where it should. Spun the knobs all the way to the top and back down to zero and always placed the shots right where they should be. I am impressed with this optic so far.

How clear is the glass compared to other scopes you've tried?

Glass is extremely clear. Performed perfectly at the Long Range tactical match this morning. It was a clear day and and on 20x power I was just able to make out the white 1" spotters on the black target at 1000 yards. I was very impressed. I would say the glass was as good as the Mark 4 4-14x50, USO St-10, or Nightforce 3-15x50. I was never able to make out the 1" spotters on the other scopes but this is my 1st scope with 20x power. So it's not a fair comparision. Tracking was right on. There were numerous elevation and windage changes to deal with and the scope tracking was repeatable. This scope is a bonifide bargain in my book. My only gripe is the turrets. It has feature where you push down the turret and it locks it preventing it from turning. But a few times I forgot it was in the down position and tried to make an elevation change. Also when it is in the up position it seems really easy to turn and I am afraid I might bump it and accidentally move the turret. Everything else is right on. Elevation is a little tight at 58moa. But with a 20 moa base, I have 11 moa down and 47 moa in elevation. Nice thing with 11 moa down it acts like a zero stop since the turret has 15 moa per turn, it doesn't make it to the next lower zero. But the elevation is plenty for me since I only need 28.5 moa to get to 1000 yards.

Out of curiosity, have you compared the Tactical Weaver side by side against the Loopy MK 4, 4-14x50, the USO ST-10 or the NF 3-15x50?

I own or have owned every scope mentioned. So I have compared them side by side except for the Nightforce which I no longer have. This is totally subjective. But I based my results at looking at objects for clarity/brightness with all the scopes on 10x power to even the playing field. With that in mind all of them were very clear to me without any one jumping out above or below the others. They were all comparible to each other as far as clarity/brightness went. I did the same thing with the Nightforce in the past so thats why I said it was comparible as well.

Re: Does any one have a new Weaver Tact ?
What about the adjustments. Are they stout and solid like the NF or more mushy like the leup?
