Bushy long range hunting scope
I got my wee march 1-8, looks cool. Will put it on my go-to rifle this week and have a play.
They look like a pretty awesome scope in a great power rangeQuote:

A mate is thinking about getting the 5-25 version to go on his 7mmRM for LR hunting. Be keen to hear your thoughts on it, particularly what the turrets are like and perceived reliability and repeatabilityQuote:

1⁄6000 of a circle in the former Soviet Union and Finland (Finland phasing out the standard in favour of the NATO standard).
1⁄6300 of a circle in Sweden. The Swedish term for this is streck, literally "line". Sweden (and Finland) have not been part of NATO nor the Warsaw Pact. Note however that Sweden has changed its map grid systems and angular measurement to those used by NATO, so the "streck" measurement is obsolete.
My son CraigC has that model with hunting turrets and z800 reticle. It's a real nice scope and he is wrapped with it, although because of the reticle he doesn't dial. It didn't seem too hard for him to shoot a Sika at 667yards first time out the other day with me.Quote:

I don't understand you guys using mils. Our fathers and grandfathers fought two world wars to protect us from the metric system. And now you guys have capitulated. :)
Most things these days are metric. I use it daily at work and my range finder is metric oh and so is my sightron. Nothing wrong with either system as long as you can use it
Here’s the link I said I would post.

Just because you use it daily, doesn’t make it right though. You young-uns are just so into fads.Quote:

I mean, next thing you will be telling me a cricket pitch isn’t 22 yards any more. That would be just plain ridiculous.
Metric is fad. You mark my words.
I hope you're joking.
Pretty sure America is the only country to use imperial. If so I don't think it'll die out because its a fad.
Ah @Tahr your being pedantic theres 62.5% of fuck all difference in eitherQuote:

Is't that small place in red think it starts with B in the process of changing to metric too?
I think its missing a red dot around the centre of New ZealandQuote:
