Rifle Scopes Good Deal on a Meopta Meotac

[Schaaf]

The Meopta USA Store has the Meotac 3-12x50 marked down to $1260 with their MilDot 3, basically a Gen II MilDot. I've came close to pulling the trigger on this scope multiple times at about 1600. Spilled my coffee trying to find my wallet this morning when I saw it was at this price.

Whoa.. has anyone actually seen one or have experience with one around here?

Edit: Looks like its listed with .05 mill turrets, and in the picture they appear to be the more euro typical "Clockwise" direction. (If the picture is actually accurate to the scope though)

I think the .05 mrad turret is a mistake. I’ve never seen it listed that way anywhere else or on video.

Has the scope arrived? Any thoughts on it yet?

 

[Schaaf]

Should be here by Tuesday, I’ll put some thoughts up on it when I get it.

Got it this morning and was only able to look at it for a few minutes. Elevation turret is CCW and in .1 mrad adjustments, not the .05 Meopta listed on the site.

This thing is a tank. Short at only about 12.5 inches but very solid. I didn’t play around with the zero stop system at all. Glass seemed phenomenal but I only checked it on my porch. I have a 3-12 Klassik I will be comparing it against. The illuminated .5 mil crosshair is daylight bright and easily picked up at 3x.

Man, I wish this deal was around a year ago when I was scoping out my Precision AR. Went with the 3.6-18 Mark 5HD instead

Meopta Meotac is 34oz sounds like these are built beefy indeed. The Mark 5 is significantly lighter.

Definitely.

There’s always been something about a 3-12x50 Mil Dot that finds its way into my heart.

For some reason I keep telling myself I need this scope, even though I can be a power whore. Curios how the glass IQ stacks up with the Klassik.

How do you feel about the optic Sir? Is it greater than the Klassik for glass IQ? Any regrets?

 

[Schaaf]

Rings came in the mail yesterday so hopefully I can get to the range tomorrow. Still happy with it. Zero stop is simple enough and you have the ability to adjust the resistance on the elevation turret which is nice and not sure I’ve seen before.

I own one and it's not a scope for everyone, with narrow FOV, and low magnification by todays standard. I most liked the turrets that are smooth, with no strong audible clicks like my Arken EP5. It will eventually show up on my page Scopesuite.
