    Film: Kahles 624i

    This film isn't published yet so you need the link below to see it, cannot be viewed via my Youtube side.

    I've been testing a Kahles K624i for a couple of weeks now and it is a brilliant scope it seems. It caught my eye as it scored top points for optical qualities in a laboratory test conducted by Vapentidningen. I like the scope so much I regret buying my S&B PMII 3-20x50. The glass and turrets on the Kahles simply feels superb and it weighs in same as the PMII.

    I here test the Mil 6 reticle. It is absolutely rubbish, get the Mil 4 which is good.

    The holdover christmas tree is spaced 0,25 MIL (!!!), covers up the target and during recoil it turns the sight picture into a blur. The centre aiming point with the arrows are actually quite brilliant in daylight, very easy to work the wind FAST and very QUICK to verify a sight picture with the aiming dot. For precision, I don't think I've shot faster/ tighter before. But the dot disappears too easily and isn't very well suited to twilight use.

    Also repeating some basic marksmanship. How to use a bipod, how to put your head down on the rifle, how to hold your rear bag.

    Neat vid Norway.
    Indicator pops up on zero revolution instead of a solid stop?

    What do you use/how do you get your recital shots?

    Thomas, thanks for posting that, excellent as usual, really enjoy both the quality and mood of your vids.

    Love the bolt already cycled before you hear the impact, some good shooting there

    Thanks for the vid Norway. Kahles have made nice scopes for a long time. Good to see they have finally introduced some new recticles though. I am running a kahles 418TT on my .260 with the MIL1 recticle. As you say the glass and the turrets are great. Interesting to hear you say that about the S&B PMII in comparison. Having never played with a S&B i figured the kahles was great but the S&B must be a lot better still for the price.
