I saw a 1.5-6x26 signature select scope for sale new for $320. I know the specs of the signature 1.4-6x40 from the currant Burris catalog but I can find nothing on this 1.5-6x26 model. I just got a Burris 1.75-5x32 and I am happy with it. Can anyone tell me the weight field of view true magnification range and eye relief of this 1.5-6x26? When was it made? How good of scope was it? Is it worth $320 if you want a scope in this power range? Thanks for any information I can get.

In searching I saw where back in 2005 Koshkin made reference to that scope. Hopefully he'll reply.

Still can't find specs,b. Did find a reference to them being short on eye relief and having a critical eyebox.

Thanks so much 300S&W. I was getting ready to buy this scope for $350 with shipping when I read your post. I found out the specs. True power range 1.7 to 5.8. weight 13 ounces length 10.75 inches eye relief 3.5 to 4 inches and field of view 71 ft. to 20 ft. I was suspect of the eye relief because how can you have a huge 71 ft field at 1.7 power and still have 3.5 inch eye relief. I got a Burris select 1.75-5x32 and the eye relief is good but the field of view is 45 ft. I was disapointed in the 4200 Elite 2.5-10x40 because to get the full field of view yuo need to hold that scope pretty close to your eye. I do not want to go that route again so I will pass on this particular Burris. I sent for a 1.5-6x40 select but it has a f.o.v. of 60ft. at 1.5 so I think the eye relief should be ok. I will let you know when I get it. Thanks again.
