Excellent except for the turret knobs - Sightron SIII SS Long Range 10-50x60mm 30mm Tube Rifle Scope, Second Focal Plane

Ider77's Review of Sightron SIII SS Long Range 10-50x60mm 30mm Tube Rifle Scope, Second Focal Plane
If Sightron had decent turret knobs this scope would easily be a 5 star and highly recommended. Unfortunately the attachment method for the turret knobs are absolutely the worse I've seen. Even worse than those on the "free scope" that came mounted on a $169 Savage Axis Rifle I bought about 5 years ago. The knobs are attached with 3 TINY pointed tip allen screw that require a 1.27mm allen wrench. A magnification glass is needed just to the see the screws and the hole in the knob is so deep a magnetic bit holder won't work. The screws tighten against a hollowed out area of the turret stem and are just too SHORT. If you accidentally tighten one of the tiny extremely short screws too much then it'll fall into the hollowed out area and are too TINY to be located.
When I say TINY, I mean magnification glass is required to see them!
I highly recommended avoiding Sightron Scopes until they fix the turret knob issues which is a total shame because everything else is perfect.
Pros:
Excellent Glass
Cons:
horrible turret knobs
Best Used for:
Target shooting
Would Recommend:
No
