Seems like you're out of your lane here.

It's just comical that you love your Sightron, but would be embarrassed to say you run a Bushnell.

I would take a razor over my sightron any day of the week if the price was the same. Since none of us shoot over 100 yards then you can ignore my 500 yard target from the competition I shot over the weekend lmao




Edit: and the 100 yard target for good measure(not really proud of that one). The 10 ring on the 100 yard target is the size of a dime. On the 500 target it's a bit bigger

Lol. Yes, I'm duping Ike into buying my favorite scope, which can be had used on snipershide for ~$900.

Yup, I'm definitely over here looking at shelling out over 2k for a Razor HD II and not 1k for a Bushnell LRTSi

Actually I was off it was like $220, the prostaff 4x12. Seems like good glass to me same as the nikon I got used for $300 years ago for my .17HMR bolt gun but I'm not a scope expert or anything, just a humble slayer of woodchucks.

Like buying my BCM upper. Not necessarily the absolute best (though I don't have any issues with it and couldn't be happier), but still very good for the money. Or like going with the RPR over a GAP

Would run this over a sightron. No reason in particular, since that's how we are arguing scopes. No actual data, just conjecture.

i have that one on a 257 weatherby. it works, its just not comparable to the sightron. the lighted reticle is the only advantage the pst has. the glass is so much clearer on the sightron, the reticle itself is sickening too. the sightron is SFP

yeah because vortex is well known for their quality right? not. theyre known for fixing their garbage products on demand.
