My IOR scope was almost $2000 when it first came out. I abused the heck out of it and had to send in for refurb. I ended up getting the newer version which is built even tougher then the first gen. They are some tanks of the scope industry same like NightForce.My bud just bought a new scope for his .308.....not sure what kind but it was over $1000
Optics sure do get pricey for the good stuff!!
