New Sightron S6 10-60x56 ED for Benchrest

[Hi-NV Shooter]

Like to see it side by side with a 15-55 NF Comp.

I have looked through several NF 15-55 and decide to get this S6 I also think the SVED is better than the NF 15-55 based on what my eyes tell me.

I understand that the BR reticle 66011 is now available. Have one on order, has anyone received one yet and what do you think?

I have 2 SVED models. Optics and dual parallel knobs are great. If they would just up it to 55x it would be unmatched in my opinion. I look thru one side by side with my NF Comp and SVED is a prettier picture, BUT, the 55x in the NF makes seeing 400 and 500 yard 6mm hole much easier to find. Value for dollar overall Sightron is a winner.

The floating dot is an excellent reticle especially for a score matches super clear glass. Nice audible clicks on adjustments. But she’s a piggy strictly HV 33oz and I will need to loose some barrel to make up the 10oz weight difference with 48x March. Lucky my 30br is 26” LV contour, so I will cut a couple of inches.

I have the BR model and the field model, Fantastic scopes! Only ones I have had that I can shoot on 60x with no problems, I've had the Nightforce comp, the Sightron SIII 10-50x, and a March 10-60x and my eyes like thgis set up the best so far, Granted I only shoot these on rimfire BR mostly at 50 yds out to 100 yds...

That’s exactly what I was hoping to hear. I also only shoot 50yd BR. I currently have 2 SIII 10-50’s and I’ve also owned a couple NF Comps.

I wish Sightron had a simple crosshair reticle, that is the only thing stopping me from buying one. The FTD isn't horrible but it depends on how big the dot is. I have read that its a little large compared to the Nightforce Dot in the comp scopes.

 

[longrange223]

Dot size doesn't bother me at 50 yds, still a precise aiming point, guess it's all in what you get used to...

Looks perfect to me, but I’m 82.

I just put the 66012 on one of my 1000 yard f-class rifles to test. My other scopes are 8-80 Marches with floating dots and an SV. The center dot is larger than the SV, and Marches, but isn't overly large. The scope is brighter than any of the other scopes through 40X. Above that, it darkens a bit like they all do. I borrowed a friends 15-55 comp with DDR retical to test, and it beat that for brightness/clarity for my eyes.
Zero stop is easy to set as well. The last shot went into the same hole as the first shot when doing a box test at 100 yards. It competes well with any of the scopes I presently have at a much lower price point.
