    Rifle Scopes New Schmidt & Bender PM2 6-36x56

    Wow, rumors appear to be true. Schmidt was pretty quick with USA turn around as well, warranty means a lot to a lot of guys these days, I can't help but think this is going to hurt sales even more in the US...

    Schmidt And Bender repair

    So it's true? That would stink as in many ways he was the face of Schmidt USA. I wonder where he's going (hopefully stay within the sport optics industry). But what's strange is you say your scope now has to go to Germany... I can't believe that Jerry was a one man shop who serviced every...

    Rifle Scopes New Schmidt & Bender PM2 6-36x56

    There were rumors, I'm not sure if it was every verified and given that you recently spoke with him hopefully it means he is still there. Jerry is basically the glue that holds Schmidt & Blunder USA together, given their recent price hikes - if Jerry were to leave I am not sure Schmidt USA...

    Thanks, one of the few I don't have but after briefly looking at your link it's probably a good thing, what a mess.

    Behind you or in front of you? Just want to be clear, is it sunlight hitting the ocular or the objective that you've found to be an issue?

    I would say the Vortex RG3 6-36, the Zeiss LRP S3 6-36 and the Element Theos 6-36 are all right there with regard to optical/mechanical quality, I just did a review of all three and each has their own nuanced features but all have excellent IQ that is close to ZP5, ZCO, TT and Schmidt...

    Rifle Scopes Best optic aroumd 2k with mil discount

    The ATACR 4-16x42 and 7-35x56 are the best of the ATACR bunch IMO. With regard to FOV, the 7-35 has fairly narrow FOV at bottom mag but quickly picks that up. Most guys who shoot the 7-35 do so without the intention of using it at 7x, most use the Goldilocks zone somewhere in the 10-20x range...

    I would say yes, on all of those. The ZP5 uses essentially the same optical formula as the Tangent Theta. My ZP5 5-25's were very, very close to my Tangents with regard to optical quality. Where Minox shot themselves in the foot was with some QC issues, out of country warranty and then the...

    Rifle Scopes Is there a market for a good MPVO

    Reticles are very much based on personal preference. TMR is not much more than a glorified mildot, for some it is too simple and they'd prefer a bit more information. With illumination the "hate" comes more from the fact that every other manufacturer out there today offers illumination as...

    Rifle Scopes New for 2025, the Kahles K540i

    All right, these are finally getting into some Hiders hands. Looking forward to early reports on how well this scopes compares with TT and ZCO with regard to overall IQ along with DOF and eyebox forgiveness... Basically I want to know if it's worth it for me to spend some money on obtaining...

    Rifle Scopes Is there a market for a good MPVO

    Okay, after almost 1 week we have 154 entries into the poll. For political polls they are often using a sample polling size of about 2000 to 3000 people to represent the 150,000,000 people who vote in our country. Let's take the high number of 3000, that is just 0.00002 of the people...

    That was my hope with the T6Xi but I was not impressed with the brightness unfortunately.
