I had a chance to mess around with all these a few weeks ago and honestly they are pretty sick. Still have to spend some time with them but so far I have been pleasantly surprised and very impressed. If you have any questions on these, I'll help out the best I can but I'm still familiarizing myself with them.

 
40.7 elevation adjustment that’s pretty impressive. How’s the glass compared to other top scopes?
Yes, the amount of adjustment in those things are crazy. The glass is just as good, if not better, than the scopes in the same class. Same Schott glass that's in the Victory V8. The MOA version is going to be a low-light monster for long-range hunters.

What scopes would you put in its class? Is there any scope you would rank as optically better? Is there any criticism you would apply to the scope?

I'd put this in kind of the same camp as the high-end Swaros, like the Z6 and Z8, and Kahles and Leica as well. Optically, haven't sat down and done too many in-depth comparisons but it's going to be right there with all those guys as well. Maybe not quite as bright as the Swarovski or Zeiss V8 is just because of the focal plane but pretty marginal. That being said, I'd take this over a V8 any day of the week. Only criticism I have so far in my experience would be maybe size of the reticle on lower magnifications but honestly that's to be expected. I'll try to update as I get some more time with it and if you have any more questions please message me or call me at the office.

Standard problem with any first focal plane reticle.
