I have had some of the Aetecs for quite a few years. Simmons makes some cheap scopes and some very good scopes. A little research will show this to be true. The Aetec has very good reviews over a number of years and has more eye reliefe that anything else out there with 5 inches of non critical eye relief. I have used them hard and have yet to see a problem ONE.

The new ones will have less eye relief and will have eye relief simular to the Leupolds. I will try a new one before I recommend or condem them, unlike many on this forum.[:@]
