The money you spend for them s/h makes them great value, and if they were originally purchased in NZ, they will come with the NZ Sightron lifetime warranty.

What I can say about the Sightron is the Exactrac mechanism is absolutely spot on and dials perfectly. Sightron is highly rated for this feature. The only scope that probably dials better would be the Nightforce but that is quite a bit more expensive.

I have the Sightron SIII SS 10-50x60 with MOA-2 reticle and find the glass and tracking exceptional. My scope focuses down to 10 yds and if you are interested I could be convinced to sell it. PM me if you are...

Sightron is one of those booths at shot show that is huge with massive range of products but always empty. I see them as a manufacturer who knows how to build a fantastic product but doesn’t have a market for. Except maybe bench test.
