I purchased a Vortex PST 4x16x50 to put on a 243. It is a really nice scope that is spot on for tracking and repeat ability. I checked my drop charts out to 500yds (492) and again all were spot on with multiple shots and yardages.
Problem was at the higher magnification about 12x and above it CAN become cloudy depending on the lighting. I called Vortex CS and they gave me an email with a Fedex shipping label and to send it back to them. I told them it was mounted and whitetail season just started so I would send it back at the end of the month - no problem.
So I'm off to the Fedex depot this morning. I hope they come through with a solution because I also just ordered the 6x24x50 PST for a long range rig I'm putting together. Maybe I should have waited to see how they handled this but I'm wanting to get this long range rifle together so I can start working with it.
A little internet research as turned up a few of the 4x16's having this problem and Vortex made it right but NO Problems that I could find with the 6x24, in fact those with both scopes claim better glass / clarity on the 6x24.
