This TEST is nothing short of a joke!

Quotes by T-bone1:

I actually don't have any experience with the Kahles, BSA or the new Leupold VX III so I just guessed where I thought they would fall to help clarify the scale

I tested the Zeiss, S&B, Swaro PH & A-line, and Leup Vari-x III.

T-bone1s test ONLY included the ABOVE scopes! Chris at SWFA apparantly filled in all the rest! Did we NEED a test to determine where the above scopes are optically?

Also..Why in the WORLD aren't MODELS listed!

Yes it is meaningless. Rated on what?

Just stupid thanks for bringing it up Randy, I knew I should have kicked you when I had the chance

It was multiple shots to the back of the head, ruining a perfectly good cup of coffee-- if you recall. :?

Oh yeah, thanks for putting a smile on my face!
