I own 2 PST 1-6s, have owned a Strike Eagle in the past, currently own an RT-6, and have previously owned a Razor HD LH 2-10x. The PST Gen II is a bit heavy but the reticle is daylight bright and the Strike Eagle glass simply stinks (I sold mine years ago). The RT-6 is a fine scope and lightweight, but it's not daylight bright and there is noticeably more edge distortion at 1x than the PST (I'm eventually selling this one that has never been mounted). The Razor is by far the best optic but the diopter design is old school. That said, it's so clearly superior glass wise that it's not even funny. So glass wise, they are Razor HD LH > PSt Gen 2 > RT-6 > Strike Eagle.

Personally, I wouldn't go with the RT-6 or Strike Eagle simply because they both have a BDC reticle designed for 5.56/.223. If you want to hunt pigs, then the 1-6x PST would be nice; I have a Bushnell Elite 1-6.5x on a 12" Grendel for this reason. If you want to hunt larger game, then the Razor is the better bet. Personally I had the Razor HD LH 2-10x on a Howa Mini Grendel, but I sold it to fund a different scope. Now that rifle has an older Weaver Grand Slam 2-8x26 that I had laying around. For larger game, this would be my choice: https://www.eurooptic.com/RZR-1558-Razor...R-155.aspx

EDIT: Just saw you ordered the PST 1-6x. Good choice for an LPVO in your price range.
