just received an e-mail from Europtics advertising this scope. It appears to be the same as the EB-2C reticle except the numbers re on outside like the 7's. I can't find any mention of it on Vortex site, ski PST-5257. Anybody have any experience with this? Attractive price but .........

Please update us once you get it. One thing I noticed is that the reticle detail on the eurooptic site makes it look like only the main crosshairs are illuminated. The horizontal lines below the main line are black. That could be a glitch on the web site. I'd be interested if all of the lines are illuminated.
My first long range scope so I don't know what I like or don't like yet. The beginning of a long journey for me.
I've said this probably a dozen or more times on this forum: I believe the PST Gen II to be one of the best bang-for-the-buck scopes out there. I have one on my 300 PRC, and it has been working for me out to about a mile. I like the Razor Gen II better, but then it's 2x the cost.
For me, the main item of significance is the zero stop, which is better/easier on the Gen II. There are also some "quality of life" improvements to make it a better overall product.
Only the cross hairs are lit (not the whole tree). It is a great reticle . The EBR-2C with those numbers on the inside, to me is simply a design flaw. The EBR-2D has that corrected and I prefer it.
great to hear, I should have it Monday and then I can decide what height mount.
They are a huge improvement over the Gen 1.
Glass clarity, FOV, eyebox, turrets and zero stop are all greatly improved.
The difference is such that I wouldn't even consider buying a PST 1 regardless of price difference.
