[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 408191, member: 412"] Buddy has the Toric 3-15x42 T-plex. I mounted it and sighted it in for him (long story). The scope adjustments were very precise from on-paper @ 100yds from getting on paper, to dialing to an estimate for 200yds, finally fine-tuning a precise zero @ 200yds. When you get much above 12x, the edges get "soft", not as crisp as the center even when focus and parallax were fine-tuned. I don't think that would stop me from buying one that met my needs though. Precise adjustments I mentioned above are much more important than the last 10-15% edge clarity for me. Honestly, those "Boat Paddle" Rugers are worth so much right now, I'd sell/trade it on something that already has the feature set you're looking for (good trigger, & different stock ergos). Along the way you're likely to be able to ditch the 3.34" mag box of the Ruger and end up with a rifle that allows more room in the belly, 3.6"+ giving you more options for seating bullet depth. For the $1300 a new Tract Spotter costs, I'd probably opt for trying to hunt down a used/demo Leica, Kowa, or Swaro. [/QUOTE]
