Why would you want the PST target turrets over the regular ones on the HS ( i have never used them or ranged before but i am will ing to learn ) My biggest concern is the knobs being big and bulky and possibly getting knocked out of adjustment...

Well, I guess I got to your question a little late. Sorry about that, but I'll answer it anyway. The exposed knobs are nice if you think you'll be dialing for long range shots a lot. Typically hunters don't do this kind of shooting, so they tend to like the capped turrets. Long range shooters and some long range hunters do like to dial shots though, so the exposed knobs are a nice feature. I thin kit really depends on the type of shooting you are doing.



I think the PST knobs are plenty stiff for most situations. About the only time I'd probably like the capped knobs better would be if I had my rifle in a horse scabbard because pulling it out of there might turn the knobs.



The other differences between the PST and HS is that the PST line offers reticle illumination and first focal plane option.



Hope this helps!

This isn't set in stone, but we are hoping to have the standard HS models mid to late June. The HS-LR models will probably be August.

Not yet. I'm still thinking that we should start shipping some before the end of this month, but I don't have exact dates yet.

Hopefully before the SWFA group buy is over.
If you don't have them to Primary Arms by 07/31, I'm gonna have to go with them.

I will post updates as they come in. I just talked to the sales manager and he said the 2.5-10's should be shipping in a week or two. Then more models following that.



As far as which dealers I don't think I want to post the specific names because I don't want anything I say to be construed as playing favorites with our dealers, but if you want to call and talk to the sales staff that might be the best option. You can reach them at 1-800-426-0048.

We shipped some 2.5-10's last week and a small amount of 1-4's. We should be shipping some more in a couple more weeks.

I found one of the HS 1-4's today at a local gun store. It's very clear and bright. Definitely looks like a very good deal. I just finished mounting and bore sighting it. It only took 4 clicks horizontally for 100 yards zero. The vertical was already dead center. I'll be taking it to the 25 yard indoor range in the next day or two to test it for CQB.

It may be a week or two before I can run out to a long range and test it at distance.

I tested mine at the 100 yard range over the weekend.  I love this thing.
