You made a good choice"Jabba954"Thanks all - though I've ordered the PST gen 2, I'm strongly considering the Sightron SV 10-50 now... the nice thing about the Viper is that it's FFP, meaning the holdovers are easy to accommodate.
We checked out the gen2 at the last IWA and it is a BIG improvement over the "old" version. My buddy was actually so impressed with it that he wants to buy one. I was impressed as well. Good thing it parallaxes down to 25yards now, ideal for AG use.
Bad thing it is still not available here in the EU
About the SV...... Wel, I like Sightron, but to me the SV is nothing more than a S3 in fancy clothing. Optically, they are about the same, except for windage and elevation travel.
To make it even worse, I looked through one at my club, and optically it definitely could not keep up with my S3 10-50x60LRIRMH. I'm not sure if his was a dud, but I was disappointed, especially considering it's a 1000€'s more than a S3.
In my opinion the SV is top tier price, but definitely not top tier performance.
Congrats on your new looking device, and I wish you a lot of good times with it
