I was thinking of buying one of the LRTSI that are listed for sale. Based on this info, would most wait to see the new offering first?
Hunted a 3-12x44 LRTSi this past fall, and was so impressed that I grabbed a second one on close out.
Same dealer blew out a few 3-12x44 LRHS recently as well so I grabbed one (just took delivery this morning).
Difference in weight on my digital kitchen scale is 2.25 oz
Tonight I compared the two scopes the last 20 minutes of light on a variety of objects near and far.
Clearly a quick comparison, but initial thought is that I’ll likely sell the LRHS as I found the reticle much harder to see in low light than the LRTSi (Without the illumination on).
If the new reticle is heavier and/or illuminated it would interest me, but honestly the LRTSi leaves little to ask for (6 ounces lighter would be nice).
