I was able to buy a used XB30 Pro at a good price, just to see if the optics czar is full of it or if it’s actually the creme de la creme of crossbow scopes (watch the Market Place in the future). 🙃
The eye relief is short as I anticipated and the Burris X-High Signature aren’t quite high enough for my progress eyeglasses. I might have to mount it in my extra Bobro mount to get the right height.
Glass is ok but I haven’t had time to really evaluate the outer edges. Will see how it compares later in low light against the XBR and XB75.
The reticle appears a bit cleaner than the Hawkes I’ve had but we’ll see if the crosshairs still look like painted on lipstick later on when illuminated. We’ll see how it goes.
(Had new carpeting installed yesterday so most future pic will have a different background now, just noticed it matches my Deathstalker).
