Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Steiner Predator 4 2.5-10x42 Top of the Line

I like this reticle.

* Thanks very much. I've always liked the State of Oklahoma. In my personal opinion, the E3 excels many as the light is a plus. By the way, I like your digital signature which I am in total agreement. There has been some contention with a few here, namely the fella from Texas which Our Eternal Light brings judgement upon very often. Surely, he can recognize that as 'not being ignorant'. Irrespective of that, thanks for the courtesy. I have no intention to bicker when there really is no call to institute or inflame ignorant cowboys.

You seem extraordinarily defensive and sensitive.

You're not made and never will be.

Are you a psychologist?

We do not purchase from Texas nor do we ship to Texas.

. Between your Euroenvy, your hypersensitivity and your tendency to be illogical, you have all the makings of a Biden voter.

I have the non-illuminated version of this reticle in a couple of Burris scopes and it is one of my favorite walkabout prairie dog reticles.

It's a great reticle for holdovers. I LOVE it for that on varmint rifles. The Steiner 4-16x50 Predator 4 is even better than the 2-10x, optically. Both have amazing contrast (pop) and well thought out illumination as well. The center cross illumination is daylight bright, also very dim when necessary for low light. Of which, this scope is outstanding at low light.

At CameralandNY prices, these are an unbeatable deal for (what they are)


Initial tracking tests in one 2-10 and two 3-15x showed no perceivable error out to 20 MOA tested.

I've heard that the 50 is better than the 10. However the 10 is all I need. I purchased more than a few items from Doug, great guy and reasonable prices. His brother is also of the same fold, only dealing in cameras. I enjoy speaking with both. I really can't comprehend why some take a dislike to Steiner whereas the optics are the utmost quality. And, with a Lifetime Warranty and 'Free' custom turret to boot. I purchased for the clarity and for specifically the 'light'. I've heard that the illumination is equally correct at day or night. Thanks for the courtesy.

Sock puppet, no doubt.

Based on your experience, I think I will try one. Thanks.

Could it be a 4-16? Ican't find a 3-15.

Yes, sorry. It is a 4-16x50 that I was referring. Looked at too many scope boxes today.

Steiner Predator 4 4-16x50 from Camerland. You will LOVE IT.

Opinions are like butt holes....everyone has one and most stink applies to that comment.

Have a pair of Steiner compact binoculars that are fantastic. They are maybe 18 yo or so. When I bought them they compared favorably with other models in their price tier, which was around $5-800, IIRC. In addition to still offering a great view, they've been exceedingly rugged over a ton of use and more than a few drops onto rocks and from tree stands (I pocket carry them, so there's not a lanyard or strap to help keep them from falling.)

I'd try one of their rifles scopes, but they never seem to offer a configuration and/or reticle that trips my trigger. The new 2-16 is a prime example: MOA only, SFP, BDC reticle. SFP, BDC reticle in a scope that tops out at 16X? That'd be exciting news if it were 1998. And, let's not forget the included custom turret! I wonder how many scopes that actually sells these days? I find it more cumbersome than actually using measurements, but viva la difference.

Had they offered it in Mil/Mil with a decent, measuring FFP reticle instead of a BDC that may or may not line up with your bullet in the atmosphere/s in which you send it, they might have had a winner. As it is, I wouldn't be surprised to see them on big sales or closeouts in a couple of years.

I don't buy them because of the whole CCP thing, but Athlon and Arken seem to get it as far as building a rugged scope in a common sense configuration with good reticles, and the only complaint you read or hear about them, other than COO, is that they're perpetually sold out.

I've not searched to try to find this.... What are the sub tensions of the shown reticle on max power in the 2.5-10x42?
