I have two Pentax Lightseekers.
4x-16X AO -30
8.5x-32X AO -30
http://www.pentaxlightseeker.com/products/scopes/
The 4x16 Pentax is considerably more clear and appears to deliver higher
resolution than my 4.5x16 Springfield Armory 2nd Generation which is
considered to be an excellent scope. It certainly sports more contrast. It
wouldn't surprise me if the optics were produced in the same plant as
Pentax's fine photo lenses. The exterior coatings appear to be the same, but
who can tell from looking. They are described as having a "Seven-layer
multi-coating ."
Anyway, they hold zero like granite (assuming good mount) and I give them a
"thumbs up". Better than Nikon as good as or better than Leupold. (The "as
good as" part is because I know some folks swear by their Leupold, and I've
not put them through any "scientific" side by side testing.)
Isn't your hunt worth a Pentax?
Regards,
Bob...
