I don’t really think the m7xi gets enough love as they had so much sample variance. I out of the zp5, pmii, ziess s5, m7xi, mk5 that I’ve seen. Honestly the m7 was my favorite turrets. Fit and finish was amazing too. I’ve seen 4 or 5 different samples. 3 were great, 1 was okay l, and 1 was a turd. The optical design was just pushed too hard imo. If the scope was a 4-20 It would have been a great scope. And I would still have one. They are a tank of a scope. Past 20 power they just fall apart. If someone has one that they think is a bit crappy in those upper power range. Try running the diopter app the way in. When ever I had my diopter set as any other scope it would take on a little more ca and seem out of focus. Kinda weird but that was my fix on one of the scopes. The 2.9-20 I think is a little bit of a more desirable scope imo. I think that design is a litter better. Under 12-16 power I think it rivals a tangent and the zp5. Low light it rocks too. In the end I sold mine as I was put off by the crappy top end for the price. For 3500-4000 I don’t think it’s a good deal. For 2000-2500? Yes everyday of the week if the sample is good. The coyote brown color is beautiful in person. Wish stiener would do a genii or a m6xi honestly. Until then I’m sticking with a old 5-25 pmii and a zp5.
