    Schmidt and bender meta 3-18x42 short review

    I thought I would share my thoughts on this scope as not too much info around on them.

    My criteria for a scope is as follows
    - good glass
    - reliable dialing with capped windage
    - NO mushy turrets!
    - center dot aiming point, in this case illuminated and has to be fine #aim small miss small
    - good low mag and up to 15x

    When it first arrived the thing that stood out the most was the build quality. It is not a cheap unit so was great to thr see attention to detail put into this high end optic

    So far I have only shot at the range but I am very impressed with the quality of glass and fine aiming point.
    The turrets are easy to use with solid audible clicks.

    It would be comparable to a z6i but with the well known S&B dialing.
    The turret is not quite as stiff as a NF but solid detent clicks and very positive. I do like the locking system which is very similar to the Leica Magnus.

    Look foward to getting it into the hills!

    All the tech info is online if you Google it
