Great on my 40X Rimfire . I shoot @ 50 yds. Bright, excellent resolution as good as my Nightforces.
It blasts right through mirage. Maybe not. I avoid mirage conditions, you can’t turn it down when it gets wavy. I’m thinking that’s more of a problem at ranges longer than 50 yds.

iam planning on shooting between 100 ,200, and 300 yards. 300 is mainly for score

Look at variables. I shoot a 42x Nightforce on my centerfire bench gun - 100 and 200 yds. Its great. I tell myself mirage helps me read the wind.

A Sightron 8-32X. With a crosshair and small dot has been excellent on a couple Varmint/bench guns

with my eyes, I struggle to see at lower power , i would like to have at least around 45 power.

SIII Long Range10-50x60

Built for precision target shooting applications up to and exceeding 1000 yards. The Sightron SIII 10-50x60 Long Range rifle scope with Zero-stop delivers superior optics and accuracy when it counts.

I have this awesome scope already , it is too heavy and on the rifle I cannot make 10.5 lbs

When i had one.. thought it was good.. i felt that it wasn't good enough.. i have seen others have the same issue.. just a lil dark.. and the dot was kinda hard to see..

I had one I really didn't like it they should have made the Objective 56 and it would have been better imho, I have the SV in ED I love it, I would get a used March in 42 or 50x

 

[HTSmith]

I really like mine. I had both the dot and plain crosshair. On perfect days I could aim a little finer with the plain crosshair but the leedle dot helped my old eyes in mirage so I sold the crosshair. The 1/10 moa adjustments mean you can put that bullet right where you want it for score shooting. Yes it is a tad darker than my 10-50x60 but I ain't deer hunting with it. Very hard to beat IMHO.

I have two 45x45's. One on an Anschutz 1413 and the other on a RimX. I shoot both guns in 50 and 100 yd matches and couldn't be happier with them. I also have a Sightron 36x42 SII and an 8-32X56, which are also great scopes. IMHO Sightron is the best value out there!

 

[AlNyhus]

I've got the 36 version (36×45) that I use for Score shooting. Great optics, solid tracking and a wide sweet spot for parallax correction.

 

[knguyen]

thank you for all advice, I will look into getting the SIII 45x45.

I have one on my short range 6ppc and love it. The rifle / scope combo shoots very well too.

Jason , hope you are doing well.
any issues you have with mirage at 200 or 300 yards and seeing tatgets?
I love my 10-50 sightron, but darn too heavy for the rifle I just bought
thanks

It’s not like a March with mirage if that is what you are asking If March is in your budget I would buy one

the farthest I would shoot would be 300 yards at Kenmore, Wa. where we shoot VFS only. I have feeling this sightron 45 will be very good and clear.

 

[knguyen]

oops I replied in the wrong part. again the farthest would be 300 yards at Kenmore, wa. VFS shooting.
I have feeling it will be pretty clear

I have been using this scope for ARA competition at 50 yards, and love it. I think if I were shooting several different distances I would go with a variable power scope to have a wider field of view to find your targets at longer distances, but its a great scope for the money.
