    Let us know how you get on with the Frontier. Looking at a 6500 at the moment and the Frontier is near identical spec and I already have the 5-30 6500 and would rather not have 2 the same.

    Checked out both the 2-10x32 and 3-15x44 pst gen 2 both ffp at the shooting show and found a problem that was't obvious at first where I felt they both fell short in performance.
    ( I was looking for an upgrade for a Bushnell Elite 3200 10x40 )
    When looking at aim points at 10 and 45yds (as range found by vortex stall people at the time) the 32 objective model was good from 10 to mid range then was not so good on to 45 yds.
    The 44 size objective lens scope was good from mid range to better at 45 yds but not impressive at close range ie 15mm kills.
    So 2-10x32 not so good at mid to long range.
    3-15x44 not so good at mid to short.
    The scopes were set at 25yds parrallex and scopes were changed later in case they had a problem.
    Compared to the Bushnell Elite 3200 10x40 with a modded sun shade the performance of vortex fell short of Bushnell, and even though I wanted one, no deal!
