BUY IT!!!
If you cannot afford a NF the SIII Sightron is the closest thing to it that you will find, for half the cost. I have two 8-32x56's and love them. I had a 10-50x60 but made a trade for the one 8-32 and cash to free up some funds. It was just as nice as the 8-32's(except ALOt BIGGER).
when you spend $800.00 for a Sightron 8X32X56 you are close to a Nightforce 8X32X56 Spend the extra $350.00 and not wished you had later. It will be the best $350.00 you ever spent and you will never be sorry you did. The best thing about Nightfroce scopes is you always can get over 90% of your money back and it wil sell in a flash.
cant say it any better than pdog06, BUY IT ,I have a siii 8-32 ,6-24 and there WILL be more coming home!!! ;D,I've looked through NF's and I WILL stay with the sightron's for the money,not saying if a NF for the same $$$ comes up I wouldn't buy it,but the siii's are just TOO close to a NF for the money.
shop around with local dealers and you can get the sightron 8-32 for under $700,cant do that with a NF,from what I've seen
got to agree with viper and pdog.......BUY IT..........my 8-32 tracks great and is as clear as the few nightforces i have looked thru. i like them well enough to have a 10-50 on the brown truck as i type this due in tomorrow. now would i buy a NF if the price was the same? maybe....guess it would depend on the reticule i was looking for at the time.

I have 2 Sightron SIII 6-24x50 scopes.They are really great scopes for the money.
Great glass and tracking,along with 100moa of adjustment.
IMO,my Sightron's are just as clear,and bright as my Swarovski PH scope that I have on my 300WM.
I have thought about selling the Swarovski,and get another Sightron to put on that rifle.They are just that good!
I'm going to have to agree with almost everyone on here. I've got the 6-24x50 LRMD and it is a great scope. Very clear and tons of adjustment to reach way out there.
