Bcraig, dude. Seriously? It is obvious that this product is out of range for you. If buying good glass will make you have to live in your truck, you might try a new hobby or get a job.
Either way, Chris is debuting this new product here with a nice price break.
The least you can do is be respectful of our host and keep your expertise to yourself.
You might consider Center Point Optics. I hear after buying a few of those, even you can dine like a king at McDonald's the very same day!


I just read your post

First of all I am not a dude,I am a 55 year old man.

Obviously the comment about living in my truck was said tongue in cheek.
For your information I am retired after having worked many years.

I was in now way form or fashion Disrespectful to Chris or anyone else.
I bought a 6xMQ during the sale and have bought From Chris before that.

If you dont like reading about my expertise as you put it the refrain from reading my posts.
Best I can tell forums are for sharing information and Opinions

I attacked no one but you on the other hand came up with this your smart aleck reply for some reason.

If you think that I was disrespectful to Chris or anyone else then your Reading comprehension
could use some help.

Its a dark dreary heavily overcast day here, perfect to check out a new scope to see what its like in the real world for color & clarity. I gave the scope a good visual before turning it outside. Parallax ring turned nice and smooth, windage and elevation turrets turned smoothly with positive clicks. Set it up to look at my normal new scope things outside, looks nice. I set up several other brands of scopes that I think are pretty good to get a comparison. So far I'm impressed, I like the reticle. It will probably be after the first of the year before I can test it putting lead down range.

Will this be going on the Charger or something else?

Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

[/QUOTE]

I"m planning on putting it on the Charger clone for Wy-Shot next year. 

I'm also building a 243 for Wy-Shot and the MOA. This 10X might get some range time on it until I figure out what I'm going to do for optics on that one.

The new 3-15 SS DM is looking good for a Norma 6xc that was recently started.

If they had the DM in FFP, I would have 3 on order already.  Just not sure I want a SFP.  I might break down and buy one for my 22-250 and move the Kahles over to my new build project.

Jon that is the 3-15 SS on the H-S Precision 22-250 at WY-Shot. It is Mil Quad rather than MOA

That one looks very promising. I wonder if the MOA reticle in the new 10X might make it to this one in time for a Tax day sale?

Looks like the pics on the first page say 15x.
