Hey turd wrangler is your real name Phillip61?
Doubt it.
Different sentence structure and barely a mention of Schott glass.

Okay I got two questions for you. As far as tube diameter when do you start reaching diminished returns? It seems like everybody's going 34 mm these days which was practically unheard of only a few years ago.Anyway, all jokes aside, originally IOR went to 40mm tubes because of their machining limitations. They had a hard time machining small pieces precisely enough out of the materials they had available to them.
On top of that, they had fairly dismal luck making side focus scopes without significant hysteresis and other issues, so they came up with that front parallax adjustment ring right behind the objective bell, but making it work properly also required a little extra space. It is essentially a smaller version of the zoom mechanism used for the magnification, except the moving piece is the parallax lens group. Side focus turrets have a slightly different parallax cell (I've got a video on that coming) that can, potentially fit in a slightly smaller tube.
The fact that in America people still associate bigger with better turned out to be a bonus.

Wow Imagine Germany and Japan teaming up ..what could go wrong?View attachment 7411529
Looking at that scope im almost certain its one of those JOL aka (HAKKO)scopes.

With a 34 mm tube what is the theoretical Max adjustment in elevation one could achieve
34mm tubes were 'practically unheard of' until recently because it's only in the last ten years or so people began outshooting the adjustment range of a 30mm scope.
He's ultimately a salesman. So, he stroked your ego and it worked. It's called sales. You bought into it.I'm in the military and I know that has no bearing here but he asked me what I did for a living and I told him we spent maybe 5 or 10 minutes talking about my military experience before we even started talking about a scope. I know that really doesn't mean a lot and it doesn't mean anything about his quality of his product but it was important to me.
yep Im a sucker for some smooth talkHe's ultimately a salesman. So, he stroked your ego and it worked. It's called sales. You bought into it.
That's sort of surprises me. There are a bunch of sticks in the mud on this side I'll tell you for sureWow.. this thread is like the Energizer bunny.
That's great I got a semi truck trailer full ofValdada scopes that aren't going to sell themselves I need to get on that scope selling forumYou're nearing the 100 post mark. Congrats.
Question: will you sell this scope as hard in the px as you did here in the near future?
nope I don't have anything to sell .besides that I don't even know what you get if you get over 100 post .Im thinking a poor attitude judging by some of you mean old bastards You nimrods forget these forums are suppose be entertaining and enlightening ...Why the F do you ask for advice when you clearly won't take it? I think the guys are right.. building up that 100 post.
Tripods interesting. Is there a particular brand that nobody likes on this site?I'm waiting for his next thread about tripods![]()
To the contrary, this thread is a textbook example of what enlightening and entertaining looks like.nope I don't have anything to sell .besides that I don't even know what you get if you get over 100 post .Im thinking a poor attitude judging by some of you mean old bastards You nimrods forget these forums are suppose be entertaining and enlightening ...

Are you saying I'm doing the dirty with my scope? I aren't too smart you knowIt's a textbook example of seeking confirmation after a purchase and emotional attachment to an inanimate object.

What the hell. I didn't even see a camera in the room

Do not reward this clown.
Fellas.... Do you guys really think I'm going to get one of these things? I decided about a week ago that I wasn't going to cuz I can buy a Nightforce for just about as much...
I wanted to tell you guys this but there was so many you guys out there that that were taking it so personal... I just couldn't stop. I was just having too much fun. And it looks like a bunch of you guys had a little bit of fun too.
Well if I made you smile and laugh a little bit that's alright with me
You're right about that and I can get you some help. Remember Acknowledging a problem is the first process on the road to recoveryAnother type of man might just learn and take advantage of the knowledge base here. And yet another type of man might just troll.
there are guys take this gentleman for example if you brought him into a room with a thousand naked women in it he would complain about not having a place to sitPlease reset his post count to zero.
