So I have been searching but have not been able to find much info about the Premier optics. From what I can tell the Premier is a little cheaper, and has more total elevation adjustment. I have looked at the stats between the two. Everyone seems to love there S&B. Is there anyone here that has put these two scopes side by side? What was your opinion? The price will not be the determining factor as this is going on a custom .338LM. I am still not sold on either, and no... NF is not in the running.
Thoughts on Premier optics? opinions?
Thanks guys!
 
Personally, I thought the glass on the Premier is better. Actually, I think Premier has the best glass in the industry.
 
When I was looking to replace my USO, I looked at both the S&B and the Premier. I also found the glass on the Premier to be better. The reticle (Gen2 XR) and the quick re-zeroing turrets are nice and I didn't like that the turrets went CW on the S&B. You can get CCW turrets, but they are often special order the CCW ones.

I agree about the reticle and the quick re-zeroing turrets.
I have 2 of these scopes, on a .223 and .308 platforms.
 
Awesome! Thanks guys! I didn't know about the CW turrets on the S&B. I have a USO 1.8-10x44 on another rifle and I am happy with it. But by the sounds of things I will be making sure I get to look through a Premier in the near future. Is there a reason more people don't run them? That's the only thing that scares me... That I cant find much for reviews or info on them.
 
Take a look on Sniper's Hide, you should find lots of info there. Most people don't run them because they are in the $3000 price range.
