Looks like a great scope. Perfect for F-class, NRA Long Range, & Varmint. I know S&B glass is outstanding so, as an F-class competitor I am very anxious to see them come to the states. However, S&B should not consider my ethusiaism for a willingness to be overcharged ! I would by one of these units for $2000 -$2200 but when I’m paying more than that I could have two new custom actions and a couple of Bartlien barrels to chamber up on those actions !! Nope, If they are $2700 I’ll stick with my 12-42×56 Nightforce BR’s…..

I think the data on their site is old, the elevation/windage looks like it is from the FieldTarget scope. I receive a datasheet saying it would be 1/4cm and not 1/4moa, plus the listed 12moa elevation is completely useless.
