Suitable optic for CQB-300m

[Robb Jensen]

Wow! I wonder how much the S&B 1.1-8x will cost and weight. Do you the specs for this? Thanks.

Don't know, the Pres. of S&B USA has yet to email me back either he's really busy or doesn't want one tested hard in 3gun. Anyone that know me know I run my stuff hard I don't baby anything.

Thanks for all your replies. I went ahead and ordered the TR24G. Does anyone know the BC flip cover sizes for the eye and obj? Thanks.

That and with S&B the price answer is certain to be "if you have to ask..."

I have been keeping my eye out for this: IOR Pitbull

That Pitbull looks really interesting. Does anyone have the story behind this optic? Or experience with it?

I was going to ask why the Millett DMS-1 was left off this discussion because for the price of a S&B, I can have 10+ of these.

I have been looking at overall weight increase and the S&B comes in at the top of the weight list.

I agonize over the light weight and profile of the regular Aimpoint versus the magnification of a 1-4 illuminated optic. Right now, I run light and have been noticing the guys with the heavier Leupolds and Short Dots are running tighter groups in the same time.

Sigh...

Couldn't find any reviews for Pitbull... If someone finds one, I'm interested.

Me too. I almost pulled the trigger and bought one a couple of months ago. It was a lack of any firsthand review by actual users that has made me hesitate.

I am a huge IOR fan and have two of them. With respect to the pitbull, I would call Scott at Liberty Optics and talk to him. There is a reason I tried the Meopta and the TR24, and finally settled on the TR24.

Here's a link for a review of the Pitbull. Overall it appears to be a good optic but the con's are that its not daytime visible and heavy. I've got some reticle shots somewhere of another members Pitbull that I'll dig up if anyone's interested.

In a world where small details are the difference between a top product and just another contestent, both the daylight brightness and weight (almost a pound and a half!) take this out of the running when compared to the solid and accepted optics that are out there.

Neat idea with the fast lens, and I am sure the emphasis on rugged added to the weight problem. I would want to handle one of these and run it before I made a purchasing decision.

Thanks for the link.
