    Zeiss hd5

    So just braught a brand new 3-15x42 plex hd5 from zeiss.
    was tossing up between that and the vx6 but this ticked more boxes for me and I think took the edge in the glass department aswell.
    So I've already braught it won't get to use it for a couple weeks at least just wanted people's opinions good bad ect . I know too late now but shit let's talk about it.

    Target turrets? The windage is a bit to get to grips with if so. They're a bit confusing which way is which. Glass is good.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Yep target turrets. Biggest thing for me was glass 25mm tube and a 42 mm objective. Went for the 3-15 and I'm feeling like maybe I did pay a bit much and Probly should have rang around a bit more
    But ahwell w3 live we learn. I was more concerned that zeiss have sorted there earlier dialing issues

    Mate I'm the same, I buy shit then look around to make sure I paid a fair price haha. Fuck buy once cry once mate. Just get what you want first otherwise you sell for a loss then end up paying more.
