    If I were in your shoes and were looking at the options you and others have mentioned, I would take Doug at Cameraland up on his offer. That is a lot of value and performance for the price. I have used leica binocs for years .( trinovid 10/40, trinovid HD 8/42, trinovid 10x42).

    Leica Customer Service

    2 years ago I sent in a pair of Leica Trinovid 10x40s. I bought them new 30 years ago. Used them hard and they looked it. Had them back in month or so, looking like new. I was very pleased with very reasonable price and quality of work. I would not hesitate to use them in the future.

    6.5 Grendel more or less dead?

    ..., post: 7583013, member: 126276"] For what it's worth, you can resize 7.62x39mm brass and make Grendel cases... I just saw this thread. Interesting points. I have been shooting a 20" Grendel for about 7 y. Probably have about 1200 rounds on it. Used mainly for long range steel out to 800 y...

    Rifle Scopes 2.5-10 Scope Search, NF?

    For what it is worth, I have run a USO 1.8x10 for several years, on a Mark 12 type rifle , and a Grendel. One of my favorite scopes. Seems to fit this niche very well. Not the lightest scope, but everything else seems optimal.

    Rifle Scopes Optics Planet B/S again

    Only excuse to go with Optics Planet would be if you really intended on Euro Optics but were severely dyslexic. Other than that no excuses. I mean the list of reputable dealers that have serviced Hide members for a long time, is impressive. I have used most of them with pleasure.

    Jon Beanland

    Just my two bits worth on Jon. I first met him at Steel Safari in 2009. Shot with him. Had him build a few rifles since then. I cant add much more than what has been said about his rifle building . Borders on absolute perfection. What impresses me most though, is his qualities as a great...
