I think you’ll like it, my first impressions are that it’s a solid overall package with a nice form factor to boot. From my short time behind the Leupold 3.6-18, I prefer the Steiner. However, I have not yet had the chance to verify its repeatability. I’ve got three tenths below the zero stop and 22.8 mils of elevation adjustment with a 20 MOA base btw.
I do have some constructive criticisms of the scope to offer.
Turrets: I think Husky said it best, that the turrets are just passable, but I’m used to a more firm elevation dial tension with more audible and sharper/more tactile feeling “clicks” that provide a little better user feedback, and more importantly, with zero play once “clicked” into the detents. I guess I’ve become a turret snob, too. The turrets are not bad by any stretch but I’ve just grown accustomed to the different feel of my ZP5’s. Also, the windage turret feels better than the elevation turret, which is a first for me. I wish this was the other way around. The windage knob is both more firm, tactile, and has less play when set. It is actually very nice.
In a closeup, daytime hunting situation, the quieter, softer elevation clicks could be preferable to louder ones I suppose. And the locking feature is pretty nice to have as well. I’ve just never felt that I needed turret locks until now.
IQ: There is some CA that becomes apparent against high contrast targets when I’m not centered up in the scope. When I’m in correct position it goes away. But it’s easy to induce, especially on the edges of the field of view. Use good fundamentals and it shouldn’t be an issue.
Locking mechanism: Care must be taken to avoid moving the elevation turret when locking it out, due to a combination of how thin the locking ring is and how little effort is required to move the turret. I don’t think I could lock mine out one handed without disturbing the turret with gloves on. This is not as apparent on the windage turret because it’s better.
Parallax ring: The parallax ring is fairly stiff and I can feel tiny detents when rotating it, which lends itself to a gritty feel. Perhaps this will fade with use. I got spoiled by the PMII’s parallax knob, which is buttery smooth.
But that’s mostly just nitpicking and subjective, and this scope should not be judged as if it cost $3k+. All in all, I’m very pleased with mine. The IQ is great, it’s easy to get behind, it feels robust but not obnoxiously heavy, it has a solid zero stop, it comes with Tenebraex caps and a metal throw lever, Steiner threw in a set of T-series rings, it’s made in America

, and best of all, it’s got the MSR2 reticle. (This is not subjective, the MSR2 reticle is the best.)
Also I should mention that the service provided by Scott at Liberty Optics has been wonderful.
Hope this helps.
