Really great job on this video. The spreadsheet helps tremendously. I tried making a spreadsheet last year when shopping for a higher powered scope for an LRP class I took. It didn't come close to the detail of yours. It was mostly based on specs and reviews. I wound up going with the Vortex Razor HD gen ii 4.5-27×56.
I just bought the Burris xtr ii 1-5×24 combo (with the PEPR mount and Fastfire 3 micro red dot) yesterday and noticed this video today. If I didn't get such a good price ($540) I may be second guessing my choice now, but at least it made your top 12 out of 30.
Keep up the good work.
