A contender among the high end long range scopes - Steiner M5Xi Military Scopes 5-25x56mm Rifle Scope 34mm Tube First Focal Plane

Not the scope for the faint hearted given its price tag but it delivers what one would expect from a long range scope. First impression out of the box "my God that's a beast" I bought this for my Ruger precision rifle 6.5mm creedmoor. Tourets have a great feel positive feel and sound with each tic. The optics are very clear and crisp with generous light from the wide 56mm apapature; I'm now waiting on delivery of the sunshade to reduce some of that brightness. I mounted it with a spuhr 34mm with no rise that was a real debate as some recommended some rise in the mount. I'll be shooting for awhile at 200-300yrd (barely stretching her legs) until I move out west to longer ranges at that time I'll likely zero the scope at 300yrds and Im sure I can push the scope easily to the limits of the blastics.
