Weaver has come along way over the years. In my opinion, their glass is second to none for the money. I have a new T24 that I use for Target shooting. It costs me $430. A friend has a $1200 Nightforce and I can't see any better using it. I personally know some Benchrest guys who use Weavers on $3,000+ rifle for competition. Like I said, great deal for the money.
