I just finished a 6.5x284 Norma build, and decided to throw some S&B glass on top. I found a good deal on an older scope, but was curious about what i would be missing out on versus buying a brand new one. I was curious what changes/modifications the PMII line, specifically the 5-25x56, has undergone over the past two years. Thanks.
 
Re: S&B PMII Changes?

Nothing earth shattering. Some new reticles as mentioned and a MTC/locking knob coming out. Like Jason said just get the knobs and reticle matching as it makes life a little easier on the shoter and with the dual turn knob on the 5-25 the mil knobs give you a little more elevation adjustment. Shouldn't be a problem on the flat shooting 6.5x284 though.

I have a 5-25 PMII that I bought used 5 years ago and it works as well as the two newer ones I have gotten over the past year and a half.

If you are getting a good deal on te scope then buy it.
