Thread: Nikko Stirling Panamax Precision

I have the exact scope on a CZ 17hmr. It ships with 4-5 changeable turrets that allow for dial up in 22LR, 17Hmr, 22 mag , .223 and a blank turret to do whatever you want with. The turrets don't lock but once you are zeroed in and set the turrets to the range you have sighted in at you should be able to tell if they have moved. The scope is reasonably compact and not too bulky. I find the eye relief fine and the optics good enough for the money. It's no Zeiss but it is acceptable for my application.
Reticule is nice, not to thick which works well for varmint work but not so thin you struggle to find it in low light.
One area I find it struggles in is dusk and low light. It light gathering and contrast isn't great. However saying that I am using it for rabbits out to 180 mtrs right on dark. For the money overall it's good value, it's had 1000s of rounds fired while mounted to the little CZ.
Hardly dealing with big recoil but it's never moved.
Would I buy another ...... totally .

Thanks for the reply. Good to hear from someone that has put it to the test. Struggled to find much online about them at all. Given that people here are all saying NS sell decent cheap scopes I will go ahead and buy one.
