Never noticed any in mine but never had to clean the lenses since I had them. If it doesn’t effect the view through the scope then ignore it.

I did on one of them. Submit a message through their online portal and they will get a new one out to you.Also did anybody else have a throw lever come with a unthreaded hole?

You can't go wrong with the Zeiss LRP S3... It will impress you.Thanks for this info. I am now considering picking up another Razor or the Zeiss S3
I wound up getting a ZCO from a local guy. The Pro is in the PX waiting for someone to steal it for what I have it listed at.You can't go wrong with the Zeiss LRP S3... It will impress you.
I had a Bushnell (inexpensive version) and a Leupold MK8 CQBSS that had debris on the inside that got on the lens. I ignored it on the Busnell, Leupy took care of it on the MK8.
They all go to great lengths with full clean room assembly on optics, but I think it occasionally happens to everyone.
Even Schmidt went through a period of having internal grease spattering on their glass.
I've heard of another time or two that the throw lever has been unthreaded. Those come from a second party provider. At the rate they grab them and stuff them in a box, they probably don't look at them very close.
Can you see the spots while looking though the scope? if not, I'd just run it.
Who you calling a Fudd?!?It's more like two weeks normally. But optics manufacturers are overrun by Fudds every hunting season![]()
Oh no, they are among us!Who you calling a Fudd?!?![]()
I really like the March .075 center dot - I haven't encountered the "it covers too much target issue." I am decidedly NOT in the smaller/finer is better crowd. I also have yet to encounter a use for 10 mrad of wind holds, probably because I don't shoot in hurricanes or tornados. That's about as useful as 15+ mrad of elevation holds... ;-)I believe those are .06mil and same for the LTRSi. Perfect for a 3-18. I sold a Steiner T6X 3-18x56 with the msr2 reticle without mounting it on a rifle. Way too thin for a 3-18. Seems these high power FFP scopes are killing the smaller mag range scopes as well. Manufacturers are foolishly putting these thin reticles in their low power scopes now.
Edit to add:
That .06 mil reticle covers just 2 1/8” at 1000 yards on any magnification power and is easier for the eye to pick up at any power. Unless a man is shooting grid paper in fclass, I don’t see how that is covering too much of the target. Others disagree.
One of my upper level stats professors worked a stint with Harley Davidson back in the day, and they did an analysis on production by day of the week. One of the results was that items manufactured on a Monday were somewhere between 100-150% higher risk of having defects than on other days. Another Stats professor loved to start each class with anecdotes about customers to his firm asking to help them achieve 100% quality in every bottle of milk produced, and he told them he'd have to take every bottle they produced apart and ruin it in order to achieve that.I had a Bushnell (inexpensive version) and a Leupold MK8 CQBSS that had debris on the inside that got on the lens.

I’ve had both, theDoes anyone know what the original non-illum SCR reticle thickness is? It appears thicker, I'm considering the US made scope with an SCR reticle for a hunting rig over a SCR2 illum model. A Pro model may go onto my precision rifle build.
That lines up with their spec sheet, it looks like the US SCR reticle is .04mil, the illum SCR2 is .035, so pretty close. I'm trying to find some way to put one to use. They're so dang affordable right now and US made.I’ve had both, theversion and the illuminated version. I sold the
version in favor of illumination so I could use it for PRS and hunting. I don’t think the
version reticle was any thicker than the illuminated version.
What was the blem price?Has anyone seen any blems available lately? I got a great deal on an XTR Pro blem from Midway, looking to buy another and hoping to get the same price. Love this scope! I would just get the XTR iii but I'd really like to have the same reticle (1/4mil).
1599 and couldn't really find anything wrong with it, maybe uneven coating towards the front bell?What was the blem price?
Sorry man, don't pay me any attention, I just Like Tactile and audible turrets is all and the Burris just didn't do it for me.. Thats why we have many options, you may like something that I don't and vise versa..No dust, but i haven't looked for it. The scope is clear as day and the best one I've ever looked through, so that's all I care about. The turrets are slightly on the mushy side, especially compared to my Cronus. I have zero issue dialing to the setting I need in a hurry though. Feel like turret feel is preference. Should I expect firmer turrets though? Anyone elses really notchy/clicky? Mine feel good honestly, not bad, but they're not as stiff as some other scopes I have.
Cross thread points for you Sir!Maybe it has internal dust and was returned?
Completely different turrets.Or maybe the turrets just fucking suck like the ones did on the XTR III I bought a couple of months ago.. Mushy as fuck... Now the Pro may be different.
Take the o ring out and it will go from mushy to really niceOr maybe the turrets just fucking suck like the ones did on the XTR III I bought a couple of months ago.. Mushy as fuck... Now the Pro may be different.
And then in a couple of weeks bash burris for having dust in there? Now we’re getting somewhere.Take the o ring out and it will go from mushy to really nice
I've been running these since the xtr 3 was first released an no dust has got in there. I've shot in some of the harshest conditions with no ill effects. Do you also think that o ring holds the gas inside the scopeAnd then in a couple of weeks bash burris for having dust in there? Now we’re getting somewhere.
Whuuut..? There’s gas in a scope? Sounds dangerous….I've been running these since the xtr 3 was first released an no dust has got in there. I've shot in some of the harshest conditions with no ill effects. Do you also think that o ring holds the gas inside the scope
If you huff it it gets you extra highWhuuut..? There’s gas in a scope? Sounds dangerous….
Scopes are nitrogen purged although wasting my time writing this when you think your going to get dust in your scope is quiet novelWhuuut..? There’s gas in a scope? Sounds dangerous….
Clearly you don’t know what sarcasm is there SnickelfritzScopes are nitrogen purged although wasting my time writing this when you think your going to get dust in your scope is quiet novel
Of course he doesn’t. He’s too smart to catch humor when it bites him in the ass.Clearly you don’t know what sarcasm is there Snickelfritz
If the reticle is in 1/4 mil, are the click adjustments on the turrets also different? Or are they still .1 mil? Does that mess things up at all?I’m glad they have made the 1/4 mil reticle. I like it so much that I have a second Pro inbound.

.1 mil turret always. what the reticle is in doesn't matterIf the reticle is in 1/4 mil, are the click adjustments on the turrets also different? Or are they still .1 mil? Does that mess things up at all?
Not anymore, do try and keep up.I thought the .2mil reticle graduations were the thing?
1/4 milI thought the .2mil reticle graduations were the thing?

Is .2mil and .25mil not different?1/4 mil![]()
That is an effort in futility.Not anymore, do try and keep up.
Bless your heartThat is an effort in futility.
My oh my what did we ever do when we had only .5 and 1 mil increments on a reticleThat's highly debatable. I have a habit of not following the herd when the herd makes stupid decisions.
