What I have seen with Vortex scopes is some are better than others. I was comparing about 4 of the same model PST and I was split down the middle, 2 of them seemed to stand out from the other 2. Not sure why ,something to do with quality control, quality of lenses. I just got another PST 6-24x50 and the glass is excellent. I just can not like sightrons they feel really cheap to me, in terms of the contruction/ quality.I think Vortex brings alot to the table for the price. Youre kidding right, nothing cheap in terms of quality or construction in this unit. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/k513/JGorski80/IMG_0391.jpg)

Just curious, which model of Viper did you look through? It was the 4-16. I kind of wondered if that was the case. I've done a bunch of reading on the PST models, and for whatever reason the optical performance of the 4-16 has very mixed reviews. The 6-24 is supposed to be an entirely different, and optically superior, animal. Some guys got good samples of the 4-16, but many others were disappointed. It seems like a 50:50 split.

I have looked through alot of 4-16 PST's and 6-24 pst. The 6-24x50 PST seemed to be more consistent in glass quality.I can't find any other scope in the PST price line that has so many features.
1 and done
