It's well made, and was packaged well. It arrived on time with no damages. It performed well at the range for a zero. The S-1 reticle fits the bill for me due to its simplicity. For the price it works comparably to higher priced scopes.

I recently purchased the Steiner GS3 4-20x50 to replace an older model mid tier 3x9 gold ring that is more than 30 years old . The old scope still works fine but I am hoping the Steiner will give me some longer range options for my Remington 700 - 7mm mag. I really like the optics clarity, especially at lower light levels but have not had a chance to actually hunt with it yet to test out the "game sensing" feature. Shooting with it at the range at both short and long distances, further convinced me this was a good decision. The Steiner is built like a tank and comes with one of the best warranties in the industry so I hope to enjoy it for many years to come!

This is the second scope of this type that I have purchased. I bought one last year to go on my 7mm Rem mag and had great results so I purchased one to go on my new 6.5 Creedmoor. I have a total of 8 Steiner scopes. I am completely satisfied with its clear glass, light gathering quality and overall performance. You cannot go wrong with Steiner optics.

I have wanted one of these scopes for years but could not get over the price point in my budget. A local store of mine ended up having a clearance sale on Optics so with $350 off.. I could finally buy one and justify the money. The scope is just as clear and nice as you would expect from Steiner or most German scopes. Highly recommend it.

I purchased this for a Remington 700 in 7mm mag. I choose the S-7 retical because it is designed for 22-250 which has very similar ballistics up to 700 yards. The scope was in perfect shape at delivery. The eyebox is very generous at all but the highest magnifications, and even then maybe more forgiving than some of my other brands. Very good clarity and focus, very good brightness and only average low light visibility. I wish I could have afforded the night hunter series. The focus ring is rubber wrapped and a little too stiff. My rubber ring will bunch up out of position while adjusting in one direction. I may try adding some adhesive under the loose spot. I talked with customer service with a few questions before I purchased and they were great. They gave me ring and mount options and part numbers and I took there advice and everything fit fine with this large scope. I asked about the glass and they did state that it was apochromatic only, not achromatic. I still don't know the exact origin of the lenses but I would like to. This scope has the thirty mm tube and a large ocular end so it does have a very easy, relaxed view, and despite the apochromatic glass I don't see much chromatic aberration at all. The warranty is second to none in this industry.

Features are great ergonomically, although magnification knob is very stiff and pulls you off target. Could also use a longer eye relief.It has served me well in both Africa and here in North America.The 50mm allows for quick target acquisition. Optics are crystal clear.l

Only used at the range twice. Site in very quick. 20X great, but cannot always see the holes at 300 yards. Haven't quite figurred out zeroing the turrets yet.So far very happy.

Purchased a few weeks ago for a new rifle build I am working on. The clarity is great compared to most everything in it's price range. I am mounting on a 1 pc rail so the lack of mounting surface was no issue. It tracks well and runs a box test like a dream assuming you take the time to do a proper install. Clicks are crisp to the feel and light but audible to the ear. It's heavy but not excessive and for most of my purposes a non issue.

Just bought this scope at Easthill Outdoors in Ont. Canada, my favourite shop. Put it on a Sako Finnlight 270 WSM, with Optilock bases and extra low rings and took it to the range. It's mid January at -20C with a good wind and shot 5 quarter sized groups at 200yds. I can't wait to try it at longer distances. Great package, awesome products!
