If you want to split hairs, fine. The scope I had would rate no better than a 7 if compared the very sophisticated way that Barsness tests his scopes. But get even a littler dust on the lens, or have any change in atomosheric conditions at the longer ranges and the results can easily change for the worst.
Then there is the matter of degradation from even the most carefully done cleaning of the lenses. Leupold's VX-6 comes with super hard lense coatings. S&B's don't. E


Funny how some get all horned up on this crap, complete waste of time. Pick what works for ya and roll on. There are people that get out in the woods and get results and others that try, but love to talk about/defend what they use but in the end eat their tag year after year. Stuff is not that difficult and the arguing is pointless.

Who cares what the military uses?

Tell me way I need diamond coat ( my older VXIII works fine), as does my Conquest?

Wow . . .
