Anyone have one of the new SH-4J 6-24X50mm FFP with the jap glass? Was wondering how much if any difference they are compared to the other.

Thinking about getting one soon.

And I don't want to hear about your vortex or Leopold or any other scope that you think is better.

Hoping someone with experience with noth will chime in ..

Thought Big Stick would chime in since he posted a pic some time back with several he bought!

Get the EPL 4 6-24. Weighs about 13oz less than the SH4J and has a 30mm tube instead of 34mm...... you can use Burris 30mm Signature rings. Optics are very good and I believe it's Jap glass.. At the discounted price right now it's a no-brainer.

It's only a no-brainer if ya don't want the extra elevation the SH affords......

I think the real question is comparing the Japanese glass compared to the Chinese glass...

The EPL is more expensive than the SH-4J scope. Unless I am missing something?

EPL is what I have , but still curious how the Japanese glass stacks up to the I guess Chinese class

Yep, the EPL is priced now, both hugely discounted, tabout what, $30 more than the SH4? BFD. The extra elevation means nothing to me. I have the earlier SH4 and it has very nice glass. Also have several EPL 4 and like them very much. Comparing the EPL with a Zeiss 6-24 at all distances on different things from 88yds to over 1 mile, I could tell no difference in glass qualiry and sent the Zeiss back.....the Zeiss costs 3X as much.
