The Steiner GS3 “game sensing” scope utilizes exclusive CAT (color adjusted transmission) lens coatings to amplify contrast in the peak human vision sensitivity range. The optimized contrast effectively separates game from leafy or shadow-dappled backgrounds, exposing your target to a clean, accurate shot. And the GS3 5x zoom range lets hunters from eastern whitetail country to western big game ranges pair their new scope with their favorite centerfire, rimfire or muzzleloader rifle. And or course, Steiner’s bedrock reliability will always deliver unfailing performance, whatever firearm or target you prefer.
Gives varmint and hog hunters sharp images at night and in dim light.

Good quality well-built
I recently purchased this scope for my 280 Ackley improved. So far it has been a great scope clarity by far some of the best I've used. It fits great fit and feel is great. The scope Does have some weight to it but my rifle is very light. so they work together very well and does not bother me. The scope is great,overall well-built and would recommend this to others.

MORE THAN I EXPECTED
Being in the sporting goods industry, I get to use a lot of different optics, as well as other items. Here in the deep south, the last 15 minutes of the day, can be the difference in taking home a big buck, or just the nightmares of what could have been. I have been using the GS3 3-15x56 this season, and I have been pretty impressed. I love the wide field of view offered by the 56mm, and the 15x where most are 12x is really helpful in identifying shooter or non shooter. the clarity is very impressive, and the light quality in low light conditions, was more than I expected, especially for a scope in this price range. the click adjustments are precise making the scope very easy to sight in. If you are in the market for a high quality scope at an affordable price, the GS3 is the scope for you. I am impressed to say the least, and with all the years I have been selling and using this stuff it takes a lot to impress me, the GS3 3-12x15 impresses me, it impresses me a lot.

Very good
I have had this scope for 6 months now and am super happy with it
If your looking for something to hunt with it Is gonna be hard to beat , 3-15 x56 Near to far is great as good as any in low light , not heavy.
Now days it’s easy to over scope a hunting rifle and with this you get rock solid repeatability great glass without to much size and weight
But keep in mind if you are a long range shooter it is second focal plan and doesn’t have the exposed turret for that I would take off one star but I new it when I bought it

Unable to focus reticle and target
I bought this after a Tx5 5x25 that is spectacular. This scope is not. The clarity is wonderful, and as far as I know, it would hold up under hunting conditions. Unfortunately, I'll never know. I cannot get a clear reticle and while maintaining target focus. At 100 yards, if I have a crisp reticle, the target is out of focus. I can get close at 10X but the target will not be in focus. At 15X it's unusable. If I drive the reticle out of focus, I can get a clear target but that is quite pointless as I have a very fuzzy reticle. I've returned twice and I get the same story, that they were unable to reproduce the issue. Of course, when returned to me, I can instantly duplicate the problems as it remains. I asked them to swap out the scope and they refused. So now I have a worthless, fairly expensive scope. Steiner customer support it terrible and I'll now stick to Zeiss and Leica. Don't waste your money.

Very clear. Seems very rugged.
Love the scope. Gathers light very well. The only negative I can say is a scope that cost this much should come with some sort of dust cover. No porblems with the scope itself.

I have a Predator Xtreme 3x12x56 and would like to reset the elevation turret to zero but the web dose not expand in clarity how to do it. Is the screwdriver required a very small one as a jewelry one and is it a very small screw that must be backed off ?
The indicator (portion with white lines and numbers) on the turret has a relief cut for a small tool to be inserted. Insert the tool into the slot and catch the edge of the slot. Press firmly ontop of the dial to prevent the turret from clicking while rotating the dial indicator. You can now rotate the indicator left or right to align the zero.

I own a Steiner and was just wondering if any of the scopes come with a sunshade for target shooting
Only the T5Xi 3-15x and 5-25x come with sunshades.
Sunshades are available for the M5Xi, but must be purchased separately.
