John-They're not exactly streamlined, but the hogs just don't get the message that I'd prefer they step out with some decent daylight remaining... smile

If memory serves, that Spartan unit weighed just shy of 4 pounds. I am disabled and don't spot and stalk anymore, so weight -- within reason -- is not an issue. But it almost seemed like that unit was heavy enough to rip the base off my little Contender barrel should I accidentally tilt it sideways... grin So off it went to a new home where it could be appreciated.

Honestly, I do hate the look of the little mounted light on the scope, but it does not change the POI, adds only a few ounces and -- best of all -- can be removed in a matter of seconds.
