RE: Sightron SI Riflescopes
SI = O.K. SII= better yet. SII Big Sky, now your talking. SIII= very good glass (may be some of the best Japan glass period). As a general, all around hunting scope I'd go the Big Sky route myself. I just hate junky scopes.

RE: Sightron SI Riflescopes
The SI model is it also made in japan?
I had a bushnell banner that was clear in 3x9x40MM but it seems bushnell switched over to China for all there scopes.
would you say the SI is a little better then the bushnell banner?
I don't want to spend a budlle on a scope just want one that works well.
I here from some guys that the SI eye relif is not want they state in there spec: any Idea on eye relif in the SI model?

RE: Sightron SI Riflescopes
We sell a lot of the SII's, and have not had yet one complaint, I wish I could say that about my beloved Burris scopes as I box my brand new Black Diamond up to send back for repairs... anyway, the SII's, and especially the SIII's are wonderful optics.
I'll agree the SI is much superior to the Banner. I cannot say about the SI eye relief, I don't know... the specifications list eye relief for that model at 3.6"-4.5"... pretty generous eye relief!
