March 5-50 vs 10-60 and the Sightron SVSS ED
- Thread starter RampedRaptor
- Start date
Looking through mirage, it has them beat also.....only down side is the weight.... jim
How would you compare it to the Golden Eagle or the Kahles?
The GE is not in the same class and the Kahes falls short on clarity and brightness. both are not even close on eye relief and a non fussy eye box.... jim

Played with a SVSSED today, too much mirage to be sure of resolution, but its bright on the top end for sure. Should see the scope checker in a week or two.

Shot the rifle match this weekend. Steel targets from close range to 1k yards. I’m very happy with the glass and reticle.
I wish it had a zero stop similar to the gen 2 razor and also had larger diameter turrets. They're not bad, just different then what I’ve grown accustomed to.
The line that you index the elevation turret from on the scope body seemed far away from the actual turret. I thought this could be designed better if the scope had a different zero stop design.
Overall, I’m very happy with the scope. Might pick another one up down the road after some more time with this one.
Thanks for everyone’s help

Copied my comment from another thread and pasted it here for future reference for anyone who might find this thread down the road.
“I’m growing to hate the turrets and zero stop more and more.
The zero stop, when used, is ugly and looks like a 20 dollar attempt at adding the feature to a 2400$ scope. The fact that the threads aren’t even coated black is mind boggling.
The turret markings are very hard to read and for a scope that weighs 40 ozs we should not being having this issue.
On top of the zero stop there is some writing “zero set.” I aligned the letter “T” with the line on the scope tube that’s suppose to be used to index your turret hash marks off of. I then use the letter “T” to make my elevation adjustments as it’s closer to the actual lines on the turret. In my case the scope will only adjust a moa or so below actual zero set up like this.
This gives the user a better chance of making the correct adjustment but come on, really sightron?”
