I don’t know about that. You maybe not and maybe not the majority of people who are on this thread… but not sure if that qualifies as most. There’s multiple fine options in this size, weight, mag range. Like the trijicon. There’s not really any good options in the 4-24/5-25 range. Who needs 2.5 on the low end? I live on the west coast jungle of Oregon. And I wouldn’t use that here. Why not have more on the top end? When ya need want it, it’s there and when ya don’t crank it down. It’s not like going 2.5-15 got you down to sub 20oz and small size. It’s still 26.4 oz, 44mm obj and 30mm tube as far as I know? So what advantages do you have? The 5-25 mark5 would be the best if it tracked and was a little smaller foot print. So we are stuck with the 4-32 nx8 which was a little bit of a fail. Still the best option. In a reasonable price range. Anyone that I personally shoot and hunt around. I do a good amount of both would much prefer a 4-24/5-25 over this. Not saying this isn’t a good option if it fits your style but I just am not sure the statement of “most wanting this” to be true.
