That's telling in itself.
I bought my "last" spotter, so I'm not in the market for a spotter. But, what did you read negative about the Vortex spotter? I like to keep abreast of spotters.

Thank you,

Don

Don, I have only read the reviews that Opticsplanet has about Vortex.

I realy dont know anything about the quality of Vortex-lenses or Houseing.

I did get to compare a Konus with a Luepold, and a guy at the range let me try his Burris landmark 15-45x60. The Konus and Luepold houseing were a plastic and the burris houseing was aluminum. The Konus has crappy lens covers but very good optics.

I know the some of the guys at Benchrest forum like the Konus for the money
