Thread: Nikko Stirling Panamax Precision

Got a NS Panamax ? 3-9x HMD on Howa 223, package deal. Working rifle, doesn’t get ‘babies’ about, had around 2000 ends through rifle. Anyway has been a good scope, never lost zero, until Saturday. Got careless and rifle dropped onto sealed roadway from about a metre. Didn’t look to be rarked up so carried on with day. It’s hit the deck a few times in the bush and never had a problem. Next goat I saw was about 80m away, took the shot and clean missed. Saw dust mark away right high so thought I’d better check rifle out. Sighted scope back in and carried on. 17 goats hit the deck up till last evening at various ranges so all is good hopefully. Will check at 300m later today. Short storey is they are good value for money and if they do fail you’re not going to break the bank replacing it. In hindsight I doubt many scopes would have performed any better, even a heavy as fuck Night Force. Just my 2cw.
