DELTA - STRYKER HD 5-50X56MM vs GOLDEN EAGLE HD 15-60X52

[JD9000]

Assuming the scopes were used between 15-50, which would you choose, and why, with regard to optical quality and mechanical performance?

TIA

I just searched this exact title, and this thread came up. So, yea there's lots to see here.(sarcasm)
But really I guess no one wrote anything

I have both and prefer the Delta if that helps. But I'm no pro. To me, it is the best scope under 2k for the bench.

I own both, delta wins in every question other than weight, it's heavy

All this info helps because money will be spent.
Right now I have several Sightrons. I had Leupolds and was going to buy another Leupold when I got into midrange but they don't offer the 42x in a reticle that Works, and can't get them to change reticle s anymore so I went with the Sightrons.
So having two Sightrons,they are good, but Iv looked through some 3k glass at a few places and yes, ther are much better ways to see long range than what I have. I'm not selling my Sightrons. They doing my bench stuff.
The delta has got my curiosity up

Depending on what Sightrons you have, the Delta is close to the SIII in clarity.
The Delta or Trijicon Tenmile (virtually the same scope, different reticles)
Is a good step up without going to the 3K price tag.

There is only 2 options if you already have Sightrons and want to step up. The old standby NF Comp
and the Sightron SVSSED ....but with the SVSSED you will need a lighter rifle for the extra weight at
40 plus oz's.. I used a Panda Action in my Kestros for the boat anchor. Just my 2c YMMV as always.
( Within this price range that is )

Since you mentioned kestros, I'm seriously debating on getting a Kestros. But sometime while back I was debating someone on here about the use of one for short range bench rest. Not so much a debate but they adamantly was against it.
I shoot some short range and ground hog match style on the ground. I think they where saying that stock was strictly for the ground.
Is this correct any at all.

Its a F-Class stock yea....Not Benchrest.
There are many better options out there for that discipline I would think.
