Rifle Scopes Looking for opinions- Kahles 624i v 525i

[Bent260]

looking for some input from guys who have shot both scopes. I'm currently running a 624i and wanted to try the 525i but have had people tell me they went to a 525i and regretted it and went back.

If you dont mind CA then the 624i will be the better option in my opinion. Friendlier eyebox and better subjective field of view and it is the cheaper option.
The 525i has a bit of a tunnel view but, all in all, the picture is a tad better than the 624i. If it is worth the price difference is a subjective decision.

I've noticed the CA a few times but only in the right situation with the right lighting. Its not that bad.

The eye relief on both is too short for me. The 525 has less CA but still worse than other scopes in the price range. The turrets and mechanics and fit and finish on the scope are excellent. The glass is where it lacks and thus in my opinion make it overpriced for what it is. Your be happier with a NF or Schmidt I’d think. The 525 looks like you’re looking through a straw. The NF and Schmidt has much nicer clearer images and better eye relief with the Schmidt being the best of what I mentioned.
