Rifle Scopes The "new" 1-8x Short Dot price?!?!?!

[Guest]

I'm well aware of SWFA's MO of listing items not yet available, but did anyone else notice the price for the "upcoming" S&B 1-8x Short Dot jumped by $1k!

Leupold's new Mark 6 1-6x20 @ $1900 is looking very attractive. In addition to hammering S&B's 1-4 and 1-8 short-dot scopes (especially after S&B's recently announced monumental price increase) and others like Swaro, Premier and USO's new 1-8, you can't help but wonder what impact the Mark 6 will have on CQBSS sales. I wonder what Leupold's thinking was behind this? From the reviews the Mark 6 looks like a very competent product.

Wow, making the CQBSS look like a deal. So much for S&B coming to the rescue in the 1-8 arena.
