Rifle Scopes S&B Fixed 10.....how come I never see these...

[USW.260]

I see more people running USOs fixed 10s and Leupolds...but never the S&B...

I have searched it, and googled it, but still would like to ask. And just a thought...what are you Really getting with this scope say compared to the new SWFA SS 10x42HD other than the rights to say you own a S&B.

Well a battletank of a scope.

Thinking there is nothing more than a brand label to a S&B does show lacking experience with said scope.

Plenty of guys here run them, you must not be looking hard enough.

NO I understand there is more to a name, but thanks. I would give my left nut for a 3-12x50PMII.

Um, I've used both SS10HD and SB10 and the SB10 is better...and yes people have them on this site. I watched one sell for 1200 awhile back.

I run three of them(S&B PMII 10X42), two are on .308's and I have a lightweight GAP .260 with one. They are fairly light(21oz), compact and very stout. My favorite big game hunting scope by far.

PGS...thanks for the pick. Thats what I wanted to see and here. As for comparing, I shouldn't have said a thing. I totally understand there is a difference.

Funny thing is, where I live and hunt I'm better off with a freakn EOtech or some sort of red dot unless I set up on purpose a longshot at an animal. Any thing more than a fixed 6 is asking for trouble.

I have 2 of them and they won't be for sale anytime soon. One is on my carbon/Patriot hunting rifle and the second is going on a DTA Covert.

Compact, amazing glass and great turrets. Only minor drawback is the 300yrd fix parallax.

Hope this helps.

Good point....It can be difficult getting tight groups at 100 meters because of the parallax being 300 meters. I try to test for groups at 200 and out with those scopes.

Is it that bad to shoot at 100?
