Eurooptic. Hair over 600 with shipping insurance. Says 2 day shipping so hopefully I will have it Tuesday or wednesday.
Make sure you update the thread when you get it and get a chance to shoot it. Ive been researching these for the last couple months and think im going to switch over all my set and forget leupolds to them also.

That my plan too. Might have to try a few of the fixed swfa scopes on a couple rifles. Still want to get a premium scope for the x bolt or my old r700 adl. That remington will regularly put 3 round touching at 100 yards with a 3x9x42 burris 30mm. That scope is actually reliable too. Wish I could find another one

I agree with JakeT - please post an update when you have a chance to use the scope. I am considering an Accupoint since the SWFA scopes I am interested in haven’t been available in over a year.

Mounted the scope tonight. Not sure I'm happy with the rings, but this scope is so much more clear than the vx3. Does seem to have a tunnel effect? I think. Not bad, just different. Looking down my hall way is much brighter and crisp. I will try to get to the range this weekend. I don't think I will regret this one

The trijicon is noticeably brighter than the vx3. Seems to hold groups well. The illuminated dot is not overly bright, infact it could be brighter. I started the test by tossing the rifle and scope on my hardwood floor from 3 or 4 feet, no padding. No ill effects.

I was having some a problem with something, after shooting a few rounds I have a hard time with the scopes turning blurry, this one was not so bad but the pst gen2 5x25 was unusable above 20x. I don't think it is a parallax or diopter issue. Or mirage. I could shoot one rifle and switch to the cold rifle and still had the issue.
Anyway so far I love the trijicon and don't regret it at all. Now if it continues to hold zero I will have to replace the vortex scopes on my 6.5 and .338 wm
