Upon a deeper dive I found that they are the opposite. The clarity, eye box and exit pupil Is rough at 10x, A lot of chromatic aberration throughout, and even at 1x they aren’t great. Lots of fish eye, and heavy blueing, and it’s only really a true 1x at distance.The best 1-10s are obviously the ATACR but it’s widely accepted that for what they cost, they aren’t that great. The EO Tech Vudu is highly regarded, and some feel it’s the best 1-10x available. True 1x, ultra clear throughout especially at 10x, no fish eye, great reticle, and daylight bright. The Razor again is regarded as a good choice, but again not a great value at its price.The consensus I’ve found is don’t go beyond a 1-8. If you really want that 10x, go with 2-10/12 and an off set or piggy back Red Dot.The PA SLX is well regarded for the money, but it’s just OK. The PLX and PLXc are very highly regarded, but you’re gonna pay for it. The Arken 1-10 is a good choice, but the reticle kinda sucks. It’s not really well laid out like the PA offerings, and you need to figure out your own holds, and is pretty complicated.I’m kinda bummed about the Sig. the 1-6 FFP and SFP are highly regarded for a low cost LVPO. But I want just a little more than 6x, hence why I’ve been looking at 8 and 10x.As of right now I’m stuck on the PA 1-8 SLX FFP, as I can get the LVPO, mount, piggy back red dot, and appropriate top cap for under $700 shipped.</blockquote>
