Nice find but too hard to tell whether they are all focussed
Weaver was a cheapish scope sold at pocket money sub £250 some years back.
I would have expected better of the Vortex wish I had a look at one at Weston. ECR ret may be usable but has same ret thickness up to the 30/30 and will lose in some dark places my one reason sent my March 1/8" dot back same perceived wire thickness and same as Leupold Comps.
Even though higher mag I wouldn't expect the pricing to be much higher than Sightron S3.
For a Sightron S3 that's about an average to good one but shows its pitfalls on high mag. On 36x very nice and what a March 10-60 looks like on 60mag twice the price, 8-80 some what 2/3 better than S3 at 2 1/2 times the price.
Here you can what I mean about 2nd focal plane high mag and the amount of marks can fit inside a 40mm kill at 50 yards. Sightron way better than most here quite likable fitting 3+ hashes inside a 40mm kill at 50 yards with double the spacing of most scopes that you will get 7 hashes in. Lose concentration or wind blows you, start counting hashes to aim off, far easier to use as a Duplex ignoring the hashes and judge old school by size of kill.
