Another scope choice advice thread.

I'd get the Leupold or consider buying "the claw"'s used Mk4 for $1400NZ - if he still has it available.


Sightron has a silly name and long confusing lists of very similarly named scopes on their website and the reticle looks awful. I used one on a .17HMR in Brisbane (I think it was a 6-20 SII) and it was ok.

Conquests are Bad and they break.

Weaver have The Worst Website and the one you had had a stupidly thick reticle.

Yip the website is shit and info incorrect..

The std duplex is pretty fine... (.136 at 15x ) EBX is thick as shit (.477moa). Weight is actualy 21oz and has 60moa (42) 3-15x50 has 50moa

Sightron 4.5-14 SII SF is good glass and the mildot is plenty fine enough but with the small dial and 18moa per turn is bloody fine clicks.... I changed because of it but it is usable

Clearidge xp5 series, I have a xp 4.5x14 and BC bought the 2.5-12 I liked it so much I ordered one yesterday from theopticzone

I bought one superslam, then another,.....then ....another. I have played with a few types of scopes in various configurations and just found I like the super slams. One thing however is the knurled cap can undo itself. I wrap a bit of tape around it once its sighted in to solve that issue
