    Haha, sorry mate, I won’t be selling it. I’ve been keeping an eye out for another one to buy for another rifle! They’re great scopes!

    Always thought i would sell mine when it come on a rifle i brought, but it has been faultless, dials perfect, really solid clicks and just a well made scope. Only thing is cross hair is a tad too thick for my liking.

    Recent addition CZ 452 Varmint. Bought a couple of months ago from Hamilton and thanks to mates it made it down last Friday.
    Whilst in care, @Friwi performed his magic & cut barrel to 16" & M18 thread. Fitted with DPT 3 baffle, it shoots like a dream on run of the mill CCI subs. 50m 5 shot group, with a tail wind to boot.

    Bucket list rifle for me, new Sako 90 Hunter Stainless in .308 at a sharp price from the guys at Wilson’s Sports in Whanganui.

    Really impressed with the overall fit and finish and if it shoots as good as it looks I’ll be as happy as a pig in the proverbial

    Got this back from Mark at Waitaki Engineering today. Shortened it right up so now it's about 15"
    I had to engineer some Talley rings for it and has a wee Leupold 2-7x33 on it. It's almost comical how light it is.
