Looked them up. If I hadn't just bought an AccuPower this one seems very viable

I'm kind of questioning it because their prism optics are at the same price point, how could they produce a nice 1-4 variable for the same cost? I'm guessing they had to compromise somewhere whether be it in glass or illumination.

Those specs look great and the price is right. I'm sure it's going to do well.

Looks like it will be priced along side the Accupower (on sale) and the VX-R Patrol.
Looking forward to some reviews. |

If this has a daylight bright reticle with a true 1x this could be a winner.

Anyone have any experience with the warranty process on Steiner products? Several of their new products have my interest, but I'm hesitant, since it's a German company and I've heard horror stories about other over foreign based optic companies. I guess Vortex's warranty has spoiled me, not that I've ever had to use it. Piece of mind I guess.

On the Steiner product site a rep said the following re the illumination
SteinerOptics3
· 2 days ago The Illumination system is nearly identical to the T5Xi, the P4Xi *1-4x* weighs 17.3 oz Interested what the battery life is and how the reticle does without illumination. |

Looking at pictures, it seems as if there isn't a throw lever to more easily transition through magnification. Also curious about glass clarity and reticle ease to use.
This optic still looks to be a great value. |

Actually it's not nitpicking, there is a reason he used the Cadillac and Buick comparison. Cadillac is higher end luxury cars and Buick is more aimed at being affordable I believe Buick does have some higher end models but not many. Now if Buick had control over Cadillac some people might think that Buick would push Cadillac to make some of the same affordable and lesser quallity stuff and thus it may effect Cadillacs reputation. So back to our comparison with Burris owning Steiner, some may think Burris might try to push the lower quality Philippines and Chinese products to be produced by Steiner. So while yes it may not mean anything in terms to the warranty it may have the unintentional effect of damaging Steiners reputation. Also just because 2 companies are owned by the same umbrella corporation wouldn't necessarily mean they have the same warranty policy, obviously in this case they do though. So while it may seem like nitpicking but there is an important distinction. |

I called and got some more info ...
- submersible to 33 ft - I asked about runtime and I got an indirect answer ... they averaged it out across all the levels and said 1000 hours. Obviously the highest setting will probably be a fraction of that. Heck, the trijicon accupower said 30 hours on their highest level. I am guessing they have EOTech XPS like battery life at usable levels during daytime ... 200-300 hours? -The lower cost is due to the fact the 1-4 assemblies are easier to make compared to the 1-5, no zero stops (but they are capped) and assembled in Oregon I am really torn if I should get another aimpoint for my rifle or take a dip in the LPVO world. These things would have to absolutely rock at 1x as an aimpoint replacement. Not sure I want to roll the dice. |

I'd get the variable honestly I'm considering selling my Aimpoints to get one of those. As long as the variable is duty grade (this one seems to be made for that purpose) I believe variables with a QD mount and BUIS have the advantage. I like to remove the variable optics and just use the flip up sights for HD. My only hesitation on this is that the operating temperature range bottoms out at -13 F and it does get colder than that in December through February in AK.

That looks like glass made in Germany, assembled in the US and the rest of the scope is made in China (or alike).
What absolutely kills it for me are those 17 ounces. I don't spent an extra grand or two in order to save a couple pounds on my builds just so I can slap it right back on with a cheap heavy weight. Talking about close(r) range combat scopes, I wish we could have a sub 7 ounce 1-4 illuminated scope with proper hold over reticle, best possible glass, true 1x, 1” tube and everything made in Europe, like a Kahles or Bender & Schmidt. I’d drop $2k or $3k on that. The only lightweight 1 – 4 scopes are Asian made crap with a tiny box, fake 1x, useless pic reticle and magnification rings that need a crowbar to operate. |

Thin tubes are lighter weight but more easily bent / dented when dropped. I recall a thread where a TR24 (trijicon accupoint) tube was bent after the rifle rear sling swivel let go and it the rifle hit the dirt ... A 3 foot fall. 
No free lunch unfortunately. Don't forget the mount - a typical mount (larue, bobro, adm, pepr) are all in the 7 oz range  . Aero mounts are 3 oz but I just saw a pic from superset recently of one of those broken at the hinge. Cutting weight typically means less material and that makes it more susceptible to deformation.
I'm inline with your thinking though. The question I'm still debating is it the higher cost/weight, lower battery life (for daylight bright 1x use) and lower toughness - are worth the 4/5/6x magnification. This is compared to an Aimpoint ml3 and mount which I can get for sub $500 / 12 oz / multi year battery life and great 1x performance. ETA: there is no info on Chinese parts. I would guess anything non-us or German is manufactured in the phillipines given the relationship with Burris. Steiner and Burris seem to be sharing design elements in a few of their lines given common ownership. I'm still interested in this scope, the xtr ii 1-5 and the tr24 green triangle. Will be 6 months before I make a purchase though. |

Who ever snapped that Aero mount must have been really torquing on it, it only takes 18-20inch pounds to lock down a scope. I have been using them since they cam out, currently running two of them and have had zero issues, admittedly it is a slight pain in the ass to level scope due to the hinge design tends to roll the scope a bit when tightening but once you have used them enough it quite east to set the proper amount of pre-cant to get it level when torquing. The only reason I would use a different mount is if I where going with a QD mount and then it would be an American Defense or maybe another Larue.

I’m in the carbon fiber tubing industry. I bet I could develop a 1-4 scope below 6 ounces. Maybe I’ll look into it… those 14 - 17 ounce 1 - 4/5/6 scopes are really out of place. Many of them are being used at 3 gun and most 3 gun pros try to save weight where they can. Spending $500 on small Titanium parts from V7 and spending $3000 on that Bender & Schmidt 1-8 fat ass scope at 23 ounces don’t really match that well. I bought the Kahles 1-6 at 16.9 ounces instead, still too heavy. |

My friend bought one this week, daylight visable dot in sunlight. One thing though, you can't set the turrets to zero after sighting it in, I emailed Steiner asking about this and was told no can do. Can you / your buddy post some pics and a review? |
