The front cover for the old K312i and the rear cover for the K624i are what you need. I have them on my unit right now. I also got a killflash when I ordered the covers from EuroOptic
Awesome going to see if i can find those.

I got pre order on the k25 and already paid in full..i hope they will at least give the k624 bikiniDisappointingly, it only comes with a wetsuit-like scope coat.
I believe Richard at CS Tactical was going to get Tennebrax covers in. Maybe he will chime in.
Went ahead and got the k312i objective and k624i/k312i ocular from area419
Here's a pic of the rig as it sits just to show the 318 offpretty excited about how it turned out.

How easy is the killflash to remove with the Tenebraex kit? Is it interchangeable with other objectives the same size or specific to each unit?The front cover for the old K312i and the rear cover for the K624i are what you need.

I'm like a kid in a candy store. Dang if that Kahles doesn't look sweet on your rigLol not my intention i swear! Though i'm pretty broke as is![]()

Stop that Richard, I will accept no more temptations from you! Besides, I already have the ZC420 on order with you, I've been trying to think of how I can cut and paste the ZCO onto one of my rigs, just for the time beingIt would look sweet on your rig![]()

It's my understanding that it will. I have a k525i on pre order too. The wait is killing me.I got pre order on the k25 and already paid in full..i hope they will at least give the k624 bikini

You don't shooy with anti cant? Your set up is pretty identical as mine but i added accuracy 1st anti cantThanks Bill, i'm pretty stoked with it. Going shooting this saturday so i'll finally get to shoot it for the second time since the k318i has arrived.
Thankyou sir, it is. Love the Elite Highland, wish i could've gotten my PRS2 in it then the sticks would match both black barreled actions, elite highlander, TT Diamonds, one K318i, and one K525i. But i understand the position of having custom patterns.

It screws onto the front objective of the scope just like a sunshade? For some reason I thought it snapped on similar to how their caps work which would have made it more universal, but if it's specifically threaded for each scope that might be a hindrance. Thanks MammothJust screws on like a sunshade, it’s threaded so you’d have to make sure whatever other scope you’re mounting it on has the same size objective and thread pitch.
It has the botched adapter ring molded into it, so you just snap the cap onto it if you want to switch back and forth between sunshade and killflash.
Curious if anyone has any thoughts on the 318 vs. the upcoming 525? They're the same price (within $100), and the 525 is only 1.6 oz heavier, but 2.5“ longer. Why go for the 318 when they are the same price and almost the same weight, if you don't care about an ultrashort scope?
Okay, between this thread, and talking with Richard at CS Tactical, I have been officially been made crazy. I have a very nice combat scope (Minox ZP8 on my LM308MWS) shooting MOA groups when I do my part. Trouble is I can barely see the paper holes at 100yds and know my old eyes would benifit from more magnification. If you could only have one scope on my one do everything rifle (platform) what would you do?
Thanks,
Rasyad
That is one of my fears of going with kahles but the SKMR3 ultimately sold me. Hopefully i never have that problem. I wonder if the retailer would swap you?
I’ll ask if they can swap me, however just the overall experience that that’s how it arrived to me is a little unsettling. It either slipped through qc at that, or got damaged in transit. If it got damaged in transit I sorta want to question the overall durability. I know it’s a sample of 1 and is not indicative of the whole line, just the initial disappointment that takes me there I guess.
I hear ya. I always felt like i heard stories here and there of 624s that had issues but i never saw it first hand. Also figured that, at least in the last couple of years they were one of the most popular scopes on the PRS circuit so they were selling like hotcakes. Least if memory serves it was the 624i and Gen II razor at most used scopes and often the most i saw. Either way that sucks though and it would make me uneasy as well.
Sorry you may have to take one for the team but I am very curious about Kahles CS. I also have Minox which requires warranty to be shipped back to Germany and have wondered how long that would take. My only experience with CS so far has been Vortex and Schmidt & Bender and both were fantastic and fast (week turnaround times). I just checked my K318i and everything seems fine on it, but to be honest I am not impressed with their "Twist guard" on the windage, at first I thought mine didn't have it until I realized it was the little outside plate that spins freely, I'm not so certain that walking that through rough brush, etc. is going to stop the windage from getting knocked out of alignment, but maybe so? Anyway, I am super impressed with the K318i overall and think it could only possibly be trumped by the new ZCO ZC420 for ultra shorts, hopefully I'll find out soon enough. One last thought on Kahles' new scopes, we have now heard about a couple QA issues and I wonder if they pushed them to market a wee bit too fast. I know some folks are frustrated with ZCO for the wait, but if we see some Kahles K525i Gen II's next year or so like they did with the K624i's (which went through 3 generations) that would kinda stink.I’m leaning toward having kahles fix it, if nothing else so I can report on the cs and turn around time first hand. Take one for the team sort of thing I guess, since I still have my amg for this season. And honestly the amg just keeps impressing me especially for the money you can find them now. Best bang for the buck to me.
I assume the experience with kahles will be very similar to my Premier that is at TT getting serviced right now as well, great cs, just a long turn around time.
BP, I think you'll be very impressed with the Kahles K318i. Once the ZCO ZC420 makes it to market I intend to do a review... The Schmidt 3-20 is amazing because it offers a huge magnification range, but the K318i is smaller and keeps right up optically. This image shows how much shorter the K318i is compared to the S&B 3-20...I was recently comparing my S&B 3-20 and NF 4-16 - I'd love to get behind the K318i to see how it stacks up. Kahles certainly have the reticle sorted

Ouch - 7-9 weeks, that is a bit of a stretch. Was hoping it’d be closer to 3-4 weeks.I just shipped my Minox ZP5 off to be repaired. Called Blaser and they quoted 7-9 week turn around. They've been really pleasant and easy to deal with so far. It would be nice if the turn around was faster, but it doesn't bother me too much because I expected this would be the case when I bought the scope.
Took my 318i, amg, and s&b 3-27 out today. I definitely love the fit, finish, form factor, and styling of the kahles the best. My kahles arrived yesterday and the illumination unfortunately doesn’t work and the windage marking doesn’t line up squarely with the turret. Elevation turret lines up perfect.
If kahles had a repair center here that could fix these issues I would definitely give it more points. That’s the thing I love about vortex, nf, Sig, etc. I’ll get it back a lot faster.
I’m using a Spuhr and because there’s so little room, when adjusting parallax, my fingers constantly run into the mount.
Glass wise the kahles is equal in clarity and resolution, but the CA is there.
I agree that it is based on cheek position.
Bad cheek weld you see more, good cheek weld you hardly see any.
I think for the size, this scope is really impressive.
I think it’s slightly brighter than my AMG, but it’s really close.
Parallax is pickier than the other 2, however I’ve found the parallax on the 3-27 and amg to be among the most forgiving.
Debating on whether to send the scope to kahles to fix or back to the dealer for a refund. This is one of the few times I’m not a fan of a foreign scope. If I didn’t have another scope I probably wouldn’t get it back until deer season is over.
Overall I wish it had arrived to me in perfect working order, but I really like it. I prefer the ebr7b to the skm3 because I don’t like the solid stadia for holdovers. I prefer dots. It’s a great multipurpose optic for an AR or bolt gun, as well as a good scope for hunting I would say.
Ouch - 7-9 weeks, that is a bit of a stretch. Was hoping it’d be closer to 3-4 weeks.
Not that you're an idiot but I can see how it could be overlooked, with regards to the windage marks not lining up, have you tried to reset the turret? They may just have not lined them up exactly when they tightened the screws on zero. Also, with the illumination, mine didn't come with the battery installed and the cap was tighter than shit. So if you didn't put a battery in the scope, it's not going to work. If they forgot to throw a battery pack in the box or you missed it in the box, I can see how you would assume it's in the scope already. Just something to check. Hopefully that's all the issues you have and they aren't actually something wrong.
