Rifle Scopes Sightron SIIISS 6-24X50 LRFFPMH....thoughts ?

[Jager66]

I'm getting interested in buying a Tactical riflescope and was checking this one out....

Did someone of you Guys tried it out ?

Your thoughts ?

I'm not sure whether it offers illuminated reticle (I think not...) and I believe it's an FFP with .1 Mil adjustment....
Other interesting features ?

Thanks

This is the scope I wanted initially, but I couldn't find one from my dealer source (dealer cost). They didn't have it in stock at the time and had no idea when they would get one. I bought the Sightron SIII 8-32x56 LRMDCM instead.

I have two of them. I like the 6-24. The 8-32 is better for f class shooting. I am just using them on at couple of rem 300 wms for fun shooting. The Siii would not be a good choice for tactical r&g. No zero stops. Depends on use. They have great glass, as well as my mk4s.

I have one and I could see 308 holes against a light colored target at 300 yards. Dunno if that's good or common though as I'm still learning stuff.

More impressions since you asked, the parallax knob seems really tight (twice as stiff as power ring) and relatively short rotation but it does work as intended.

Jager66: Have a 6-24x50 ffp with mil/mil, though no illumination.
Love it.

Seen sfp 8-32 too, very nice glass!

IMHO Sightron is hard to beat @ price point, very good glass
have ran one on my AR since 2008, zero issues
tuff lil scopes thou i think they need better reticle selection

for f class they just rock

Love mine. The reticle is sweet. Use it on my .223 bolt rig out to a grand

Have a SIII 6-24LRMD and had a 8-32TD. Glass quality is one of the absolute best in the price range that you will find these scopes in (my subjective opinion after comparing them to my other optics). The contrast and resolution were better than my Leupy Mk4's. In addition, the 6-24 is, and the 8-23 was very repeatable. They were on target rifles, so I did not beat on them. At the range however I never had a problem with repeatability at different yard lines. I got mine before they finally started making mil/mil and MOA/MOA models, so that is the only negative aspect for me (along with the SFP). I'm probably not going to ever do a lot of hunting on purpose with the 6-24 that I still have because of this.

I'd happily own another Sightron SIII if the need arises.

+1 to the comments here, Sightron continues to evolve in a positive manner...great scopes for the $$

I have two of the 6-24X50s one mil dot & one moa 2 reticle, very good value for the $$

I have the 6-24x50 lrd with the dot reticle on my Grendel. Works well at 1k. I am thinking of one for my .223.

hi,

any trick or solution with this tight parallax knob. It needs a gorilla grip. Yesterday it was cold and two hands were necessary for the knob. Be sure with two hands I can break a finger easily but not in prone position this knob.
This is the only downside with this scope!
