Nice start. I'm looking forward to the complete review over time. Seems like it would fit a AR like you have it on perfectly.

Thanks, Graham.
It is a nice scope and at about $2100 is actually a relative bargain considering the competition. I am hoping to be able to round up a couple of competing designs after SHOT and make a proper comparison out of it. ILya

The March really peaked my interest, and If I was still looking for a scope in this catagory I think I would look real close at it.
I agree with you ILya, on the reticle of the IOR, I think it is to busy for this class of scope. A modified version of their CQB reticle would have been better IMO.
I would like to have the turrets of the 1-10 IOR on my 1-8 IOR instead of the BDC turret. It would be great if IOR could mix and match their reticles and turrets in their tactical scopes.
I'm looking forward to your follow up.

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.

This scope appears more streamlined and unlike the past IOR's that were square all over and bulky.
Knobs look good too. Cool SE Vortex flash suppressor on that stick too, Koshkin.

If at first you don't secede...try..try again.

It is still a very solid feeling scope, but it is definitely leaps and bounds beyond old IORs.

Excellent write up too, Buddy. As usual. I've said this many times, but you have the unique ability to take high tech subject matter and make it understandable to the rest of us.

Thanks, CT.
Messing with scopes that people send you out of the blue is a tough job, but somebody has to do it... ILya
