Depending on the model, Sightron can do reticle changes. Look on their home page under 'Support' for the proceedure.

Al:

Thanks for the heads up. I'll be checking into it.

That’s too bad. The leupold 6x is a solid scope.

I wish they would reintroduce the Early 80s Vari-X internals.

Leupold doesn't seem to understand the dislike most men have for the wide duplex reticle. It seems to the be kiss of death for any scope that gets saddled with it.

Making that the usual reticle was a dumb move. Widening the gap removes the utility of the duplex.

Strange part is even with the standard duplex, there is a wide variety of actual reticles among different models. Some are heavier, some are narrower, some are wider.
