I am amazed - weight on the Siii 10x42 is about 24 ounces.  That is a good 6 ounces less than most 10x42.   There are some real strong endorsements here for their 8x32s.   Does any of that bleed over to the 10x32 or  10x42?  I want a 10x for what I am doing.  Most 42mm objectives  are a good 10 ounces heavier than the 32mm  which has been motivating me toward the 10x32s, but these sightrons are only 4 ounces more.  

I have to find some place that sells these things and take a peek. 

Anybody know what the difference is between SIII and SIIILR?  May not be all that important since the LRs are up at 32 ounces, kind of porky when you compare it to 24.   That 8 ounces is a first aid kit or a small bottle of suncreen and a pocket knife.  Stuff adds up.
