Iluminated on both models. This is for a hunting rifle
After suffering from anaylsis paralysis, I think I've narrowed it down to these two.
This is exactly the magnification range that I want.
Most specs are nearly identical, both made at LOW.
Both have well designed, usable reticles throughout the power range.
The Tract is a bit cheaper, but at what cost?
I have now seen several reviews, though not on this optic, of the Tract scopes not tracking well and not having that great of glass.
The only negatives I found on the Maven don't exist on the new illuminated model, though some complain it doesn't have a locking elevation turret, but it does have a zero stop.
The tract has giant turrets, the maven has human sized ones.
They are both the same length, have the same FOV etc...
I had considered the XTR III 3.3-18 and the new Steiner H6Xi or whatever it is called, but both of these offer what I'm looking for.
Anyone have experience with both?
I was pretty pumped about the Tract, but seeing reticle shift when adjusting parallax and reports of underperforming glass gave me pause, then I saw the Maven.
Help!
