Steiner T5XI 3-15x50 SCR Riflescope Demo 5112

Even though this was sold as a demo model, it came out of the box without any signs that it had even been handled by another person. The clarity of the glass on this scope is excellent, easily on-par (if not better than) with more familiar high-end optics. Build quality is excellent. This scope holds zero on my AR even after several "mortarings" due to some cartridges I loaded too long became stuck in the barrel. I simply don't have to worry about re-zeroing every time I'm at the range. Reticle clarity is also excellent with very good illumination. The zero-stop is a great feature and very easy to set once zeroed. The clicks for dialing in windage and elevation are very tactile, though the detents hold the turret caps very firmly even if roughly handled. The exact dialing can be checked at a glance, so I don't expect I'll ever be lost in the turrets. For my particular rifle, I have it installed in a 20 MOA mount. Even after dialing up around 9.5 mils for initial zeroing, I have around 22 mils of elevation left after resetting the zero, which is more than enough for the ~800 yards or so of maximum range I expect to use with this scope. All said, I am very pleased with the quality and value of this scope. I had initially written off Steiner as an "unknown" brand for rifle scopes, but will definitely be strongly considering them in the future for future long-range precision rifle optics.
