    Seriously??? I beginning to think the statement about you being mentally challenged might be spot on. YOU have said that IOR is the best bar none in effect saying it's better than, Nightforce, Schmidt and Bender, Kahles, US Optics, Steiner and every other high end scope out there but yet YOU...

    It's the Nut behind the Butt that counts mate. I have seen and shot against guys that had the absolute best that money can buy and they didn't have a clue and couldn't shoot worth a damn. I took a factory .308 rifle (Savage 110 in a HS stock) with a 3.5-10 MK4 with 1 MOA clicks for elevation to...

    I find it interesting how anyone can say a particular scope is "The best in the world bar none" when openly admitting they have very little experience such quantifying statements without the experience to back them up hold little value. It would be perfectly reasonable to say "This is the best...

    Rifle Scopes AIAE optic choice help..Schmidt & Bender vs Kahles

    Well picked up the rifle will do some proper pics when the scope arrives but the mount is from what I can tell is an AI 45 min mount can't wait to get the scope mounted and take it for a shoot

    Rifle Scopes TT, Tangent Theta Optics?

    I have picked just two parts of your comment but I find it interesting that you feel you had handled either scope enough to quantify either of those statements. As others have stated I don't think you can really compare optics at all inside I artificially lit room, even outside I don't think I...

    Rifle Scopes AIAE optic choice help..Schmidt & Bender vs Kahles

    UPDATE: Just pulled the trigger and ordered in a Kahles k624i CC with the MSR/K availability and reticle choice really came into play and as much as I wanted to justify the S&B after comparing them the Kahles appeared just as good and whilst I had the $ for either having an extra $1000 in my...

    AIAX optional extras

    You will have trouble and might not be able to import one of the new AX into the country at all as it only comes with a folding stock option which is a prohibited import in Australia

    Rifle Scopes AIAE optic choice help..Schmidt & Bender vs Kahles

    Ok, So I got my hands on both of these scopes at the same time today. The S&B had the P4F reticle as mentioned and the Kahles I handled today had the Mil4. Took them both outside to get a look through them in natural light rather than just inside the shop, it was overcast so not the best...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner 3-15x50 nothing short of amazing!!!

    I'm looking forward to having a beer with you if you manage to get down here mate, I compared the S&B to the Kahles today and was pretty impressed still deciding but the Kahles is certainly a front runner at the moment

    Thanks Mike, I did check out the AMR but I think overall I prefer the MSR/K not to say one is better than another just with reticles I think personal preference plays a large role too. Just checked prices with another local dealer they are selling the Kahles for over $4000 AUD which is on par...

    Rifle Scopes AIAE optic choice help..Schmidt & Bender vs Kahles

    Yeh will post up the outcome..... It will be interesting and several factors will decide in the end, Reticle preference being a big one too, the P4F is the one they have in stock where as with the Kahles I can get the MSR/K which I really like the look of so far. I kind of hoping that I look...

    OK, Been doing a bit of running/calling around today with my contacts, i'm going to be comparing a S&B 5-25 and a Kahles K624i side by side on friday, I hope. My mate who is the manager of one of my local gun shops has a Kahles coming in so will be able to give them a good look over. The...

    The AIAE has a one piece 34mm mount with it (not sure what cant it is though) if it's not suitable for what I want I'll likely get a spuhr

    The model available is a double turn non locking turret model so might not be a 2 year warranty will have to check on that but you're right that is something to seriously think about 2 years really is inadequate at this price point

    Mate I'm up in Queensland, Cleavers and QGE occasionally have them in stock but rarely at the same time to compare etc. I know Stuart and Annie (the march importers/distributors) but there are a few things turning me away from the march. My mate has an 8-80 sitting out at his shop that he...

    Thanks for the link but they only ship conus was trying to buy locally here in AUS if possible to support local business and have a local point of contact for any warranty issues. I can use the vortex and wait for whatever scope info with to turn up if need be just have no way to compare the...

    Rifle Scopes AIAE optic choice help..Schmidt & Bender vs Kahles

    I would indeed like the MSR however it is not available for me currently and the S&B PMII aren't generally a stocked item they normally only get brought into store if someone orders one in and are only in stock if they don't purchase it for some reason. FFP scopes are a very small market over...
