Rifle Scopes New Schmidt & Bender PM2 6-36x56

[Glassaholic]

Exactly. Instead of just saying, .05Mil per click, they say .5cm@100M per click, but leave out the 100m part, which is stupid and keeps people thinking in linear values when making angular adjustments.

I agree, their CM turrets confuse me too. Personally I don't like the .05 mil clicks, there's too many and I just don't see the real world benefit for my type of shooting.

It’s nice to have the 39.5 mil of elevation.

I was shooting out to 1.5 miles and needed less than 30 mil. If ELR then going to use Charlie Tarac. 32.5 mil from DT II+ more than enough for my needs.

 

[wooferocau]

Ready for testing tomorrow...

BTW....I think people will be VERY VERY happy with the sharpness/Resolution of these scopes!!!

Much Much better than my old 5-25 ,
PmII.....and they shame my 3-27 HP..

36x 20x 10x 6x

36x 20x 10x 6x

Not sure if it is the camera, seems like on the edge of the 36x photo, image got blurry and purple there.

 

[wooferocau]

They are only shitty phone camera pics to show the reticle.
The image in real life is stunning edge to edge..

See the other pics...you will see purple fringing on the Outside of the scope ...its the camera..

HTI 375ct... zeroed at 110yds..3 shots...

Exciting to have a Schmidt back in consideration

 

[TheOE800]

Oh yes sending optics back to Germany sounds fun.

Well thats why its good that there’s a facility in Winchester, VA…

Fair, but anything they can’t do does go back to das Vaterland.

You missed the green dot in the fourth to the last pic . Seriously good. Love that 375 Cheytac, buddy had one and it made shooting to 2000 yards boringly good. Heck even the 300 Norma out to 2000 is phenomenal.

You must be one of the lucky ones and don’t live in Western Australia

Yeah I am 4000km away from WA....Victoria is the opposite side of Aus.....Vic is a good place to be a firearm owner.
.Also a great place to be a military vehicle owner.....my Centurion isn't frowned opon by the Boy,s in blue (Police).

Ive been told if it gets to that point they just send you a replacement

Well now I'm truly envious. But hey, I think I have an LMT that's the same color as your Centurion

 

[wooferocau]

My mate was so impressed with my 6x36,s he grabbed the last one available here on Aus.
It's the 35DT....GR2id Reticle

How is the eyebox? Is it better, worse or comparable to the 5-25?

Probably the worst SB turrets eva made

That a mark 5? Looks to be in great shape

Yep 5.1....spent 10yrs doing a total ground up restoration.

Eyebox is excellent...better than the 5-25.

 

[Glassaholic]

Eyebox is excellent...better than the 5-25.

That is impressive indeed since this scope uses a 6x erector and is shorter than the 5-25. Schmidt engineers often impress, looks like they did their homework on this one. I would love to get a Schmidt 6-36 side by side with TT 7-35 and ZCO 8-40

 

[Dogtown]

Indeed - such a niche turret; I can't believe they put it on just about everything in the PM II line.

Makes 0 sense on this scope too I seriously will never understand SB strategy

 

[Dogtown]

I'm sure we'll see it on the 6-60x too, because dudes need to mount an Aimpoint on top of their ELR scopes

Have a TT 7-35 ordered...BUT!! i think the wait will be Long!

Not fussed though as i am really liking the 6-36 way more than i anticipated..

You never know when you might need to shoot a rat at 25 yards with your 375 Cheytac

Then you definitely don't want to look at Leupold's strategy

 

[Huskydriver]

Probably even worse honestly.

So when are these available in the US?

Been told no more available here in Aus for 4-5 months!!!

Q4 of next year prolly

 

[JER6.5]

Just got mine, excited!!

Goddamn need to be a giraffe that turret’s so tall.

 

[Huskydriver]

Goddamn need to be a giraffe that turret’s so tall.

I'm actually a huge fan of it... Def not a turret I would use on everything but my lr prone stuff is quite nice

 

[RayDBonz]

Isn't the DT II+ MTC LT turret an option?
It's one of the best out there anywhere.

Here is my problem. When I thought of Schmidt and Bender, I would think of Tiborsaurusrex and his preference for that optic, in the past.

Now, when I think of the S&B scopes, I think of a snow monster named flip.

With endorsements like those, how could you possibly buy anything else?

Personally, I'm holding off on purchasing until I see Chris Costa gazing through one on a stage in Japan.

Yep...I ...the MT turret

 

[beetroot]

I still think the illumination dial looks like shit.
Could they really not have designed it to be lower profile, not to mention an off between each setting.

I bet you still have to dial it back to 1 before swtiching off, rather than being able to go 11 to off.
