Sightron scopes?

I have several Sightron scopes, and I love them. I prefer the SII's over the Leupold VXII's. I didn't really like the SI sightron though. As far as there customer service, it is great. I have not had to use their warranty yet, but it is better than any other scope warranty I have heard of. The place I bought a few of mine said that if it ever breaks, bring it back in and they will do a one for one exchange on the spot for a new one, this way I wouldn't have to mess with sending it in etc. like most manufactures.

Could you elaborate on the perceived differences between SI and SII. The only technical differences I've got form Sightron web site are: fully multicoated (SII) vs just multicoated on some lenses (SI), and some brand jargon about the adjustments.

Which SI and SII do you have?

I'm trying to decide between SI 3-9x40MD and SII 3-9x42. I need a lot of eye relief for my inline muzzleloader, and not all SII provide this. On paper, at 3x the SI has a bit more relief (4.5) than the SII (4.2). An the SI is almost half the price. Tough choice.
