Excellent report on the SHV on longrangehunting.com check it out. If it's the one I've seen, where he tests the 3-10 version, it was a little disappointing in that he didn't test the tracking at all; just made that comment that it seemed to track a little "tall". I like that forum but I haven't found a great review of the SHV on there yet. Got a link?

Got to handle one today, a 4-14 at Cabelas. It seemed damn good optically. Eye relief "seemed" adequate, but it wasn't mounted up. It had the MOAR reticle which looked very useful. The lines comprising the reticle were quite thin. Clicks on the turret were very positive but a bit mushy. Comparable to my Zeiss in that regard. All in all, it seemed pretty damn sweet, at least insofar as you can tell holding it in your hand in a Cabelas.  Looked like it'd be a piece of cake to make a zero stop for it. I could like one.

Looked through a buddies SHV scope this weekend. I measured the eye relief to where I could see a full picture..... 3 1/4" is what we measured.
They're a nice piece of glass......

I was shooting a musket today with the 3-10x42. It tracked right on on the board,being a MZ i didnt do any tall target test shooting. Took it to 400 yards shooting 275gr parker aluminum tip bullets, 130grs of BH209 means lots of recoil. ER wasnt an issue. Nice little scope was my impression, but havent used it enough yet. ![[Linked Image]](http://i540.photobucket.com/albums/gg342/steveberrett/DB3D5FC0-AC9C-488E-8390-38C1B4B081B6_zpschupbc78.jpg)
