For target work with a high powered model between the Meuller Eraticator or the Millett Buck Gold.
Glass quality, clarity, sharpness, Light Transmision, Eye relief etc...

Which would you pick?

Let's look at it this way. Millet is an old line company who has been in the iron sight business a long time. Now they think they want to be in the optics business. The history of such companies who decide to venture into optics when it's not their primary focus has not been good. Many have tried and gave it up over the years. My thoughts are Millet will too. Then what do you do?

Mueller while new has made a commitment to be in the optics business. It's their only business. Yeah they might fold in time but they have grown pretty well so far and are continuing to get stronger all the time. I'd bet my money on them being in business to back their scopes longer than Millet.

To me that matters.

Kinda like Hunter Wicked Optics my friend :)  :-D  :)
I was leaning towards the Meuller as well. I just hear too many great things about them. They all can't be wrong :wink:
