I recently picked up 2 Steiner MIlitary 4-16x50 Illuminated G2 Mildot and finally got to remove them and play with them. Wow is all I can say. I am blown away by the glass.

The scopes actually have a few flaws in the finish fresh out of the box but I don't mind. I just wish Steiner was still doing the free Binoculars with purchase. Oh well.

These things are friggin' HUGE! When I first opened the box, my reaction was WHAT THE FUDGE and then my wife walked in and said "DAMN THAT'S HUGE!" and I made a joke.

One of the batteries is dead but the other lights up. VERY impressive illumination on this thing. I think this scope is too big for my MEGA MKM rifle.

Will post pics.
 
Haha that's the same thing I said when I got my 4-16... I was like "HOLY CRAP THIS THING IS HUGE". It was big enough that I contemplated returning it... but after looking through it... nope, this baby aint going anywhere.
