I never found anything they make more attractive than something else in the same price range. They were not unique, not more appealing. However, I like this scope, at least its looks and specs. The only thing I don't like about it, that I can see upfront, is the low end. If it were 3x, I would have already ordered one. |

Picky, picky, picky. Just get the 3-18x50 if you need 3x, after all, who needs 27x for anything other than 338 LM or 50 BMG I'd love to get my mits on the 3-18x50. |

Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

3-12x56 is FFP and they have a 4-16 that is FFP. However, for me, with Hensoldt SFP is definitely not a deal breaker. They have a very high end 3.5-26 that is FFP too, but I'm not willing to pay the price for what I've seen... it is the only disappointment I've ever experienced with Hensoldt... however, the price is a major part of the disappointment. |

I'm not going to pay $5500-$7000 for a scope I've not found that much value in. It would be a "value" at the price of the 6-24x72, it has some nice features, but nothing "world shattering". I do not understand the pricing on that scope.

Then I think the Razor 4.5-27x56 or the 3-18x50 would be the best bang for the buck.

Does anyone know what it is about these scopes that makes them so heavy?
