Re: H-27 or H-58?

Horus Vision is transitioning from the H58 to the H59. The H59 is a H58 reticle that is 4 mils wider (2 mils per side).
I have asked both Leupold and Nightforce if they have any plans to introduce the H59 and have been told "not at this time." Although I have no facts to support this idea I suspect Horus Vision sold both of them pre-etched reticle glass at a high price (approximately $500 per glass) and right now they have these "parts" waiting on orders to use them up.
While some of us may like the Horus reticle, they are not a real fast mover for the companies; therefore, it will probably be a while before the parts are used. Once these are gone, then each company will evaluate the offering to see if they want to continue to offer the Horus reticle. If they do, they will probably transition to the H59 or something newer.
I also suspect the folks at Horus Vision are so "proud" of their product they are being a real pain in the butt to deal with. In this regard they are their own worst enemy.
