Both of my new scopes arrived today, a late Christmas present to myself. clapclap
I got a Sightron 8-32 x 56 for my Armalon .308: http://aimfieldsports.com/epages/www_ai ... 32x56LRMOA
And a Bushnell Elite 4.5 - 30 x 50 for my SGC AR: http://www.bushnell.com/all-products/ri ... mm-mil-dot
First impressions (which involve looking out the front room window down the street) are good for both scopes. The Bushnell is nice and compact, which is just what I wanted for the AR and is clear enough to my eyes. It does get a little milky on 30x, but not enough to become an issue for me. The clicks are a bit light, but I can live with that. The Sightron is really nice. Looks great and is very clear.
Looking forward to zeroing them at weekend.
Only problem now, is I'm running out of excuses. tongueout

I have the 6x24 version of the Sightron, this is a mighty fine piece of glass. Placed side by side against a Leupold it whoops its ass and in my opinion is clearer than my nightforce, just not as bright. I'm sure you'll be happy with both purchases.

I have the 8-32x56 Sightron on my Steyr, lovely piece of kit smile2
Just had a look at the Aimfieldsports site, didn't realise the price had gone up again!, glad I bought mine in the USA last year, saved me almost £400
