I got mine for the same price. I would have preferred a plain dot reticle but, the small open box is not annoying. I will get used to it.DVOR, $579 before tax. The majority of my shooting is for groups, as I learn the art of reloading and wanted an optic with a thin SFP reticle. I’v never owned top tier optics but have a handful of $300-$800 scopes and the glass in this Burris is ahead of this pack. I hope you or I get the chance to compare it to the Siii out of curiosity.
BTW, great looking rifle!
