Check Cleavers Firearms website over here in Aus .
I know a few guys who have bought Vortex scopes and Cleavers weren't that different from what you pay in the USA .
I don't know how it works but I'd be happy to send a scope on to you and that would make it secondhand if that helps with duty etc .
Mate you have done so much already. I will check it out and do some maths, that donation may grow conciderably ;)Quote:

Details please. How much difference to buying in NZ etc etc
Havnt seen one for sale here yet. I paid $717NZ to get it to Oz. If it came to NZ direct slap another 15% on top. The shop that was going to get mine still hasnt heard when they will be in. I will have a look at what they sell them for once they get their shipment.Quote:

Next question team, what tools do I need for 30mm Optilocks and where would one source them from?

Then it will be a case of "how do these clicky bits work" :thumbsup:
How much clearance did you end up with between barrel and scope ?
Post up a picture if you can .
Theres quite a bit, maybe 7-10mmQuote:

May need to get lower mounts :)
Took a while I know @Ground Control
Very happy with it at this stage.
Only put 12 through since new scope and was very happy with that.
Dont think I could go any lower without compromising my eye relief. Can see in one pic how close the mag ring is to the base.
Cant wait to start reloading and developing a load for it. All i'm after is a rig for 10-400m.

Shit shes close to touching. Looks good though, quite a smart looking scope
Yeah I like the look of it. I could get lower with other ring/bases but it feels good as is.Quote:

Agreed, I think some get hung up on how close they can get the objective end to the barrel. Its mint. Will keep ya posted with how it goes.
How much clearance is there between the bolt handle and the scope ?
Dunno :) will get a picQuote:
