Kinda think I already know the answer to this one, but which do you think has the better glass? I think the Weaver is heavier, and only has a german reticle with red dot but is not as good for longer ranges I would think due to the reticle (no mildot) and it isn't FFP.
Thinking of replacing my Weaver with a SS.

Are you looking at the standard SS or the HD & variable?

Then i'd say the SS hands down. I just got done testing one out and was very very impressed. SO much that I took my standard SS10x off my 308 and sent it in on trade for a 3x9 that i didn't have to give up!

Not having seen them side by side, I simply can't tell you. I would lean toward the variable super sniper, but that Weaver had pretty decent glass as well.
Bottom line is that these scopes are designed for different purposes and I am not sure how they ended up competing for the same customer. ILya
