    Toby, as stated Clearidge is Opticzone's own brand and they list them on their Clearidge site and the Opticzone site. Why anyone would buy them off the Clearidge site has me beat as their Opticzone site always offers a discount. I have one of their rimfire scopes - VG quality.

    They seem the ticket for me. 2.5-12.5 seems like a really good power range and with dials just makes the whole thing better. Might save up and get one for my 6.5

    Tobes, the XP5 models are very nice, good value for money IMO.

    Bought one off Tahr and using it on my FTR rig at the moment.

    Allan Newnham from accuracy developments imports quite a few of them.
    There are a few around taihape and are performing well.
    The winner of our local longrange shoot uses the big xp5 so they work well!
    Allan himself uses them and I have had quite a play with them as well.
    They seem well built with good optics and adjust well.
    A good midrange scope I must say
    My favorite sentences i like to hear are - I suppose so. and Send It!

    Cheers nor-west. I need to save up a few hundred more yet. I was just seeing if there was a retailer in NZ as I have no idea how to buy stuff from the us. I've decided to save up and get this scope though over buying some powder and projectiles
