Thread: Scopes for Long Range Shooting in NZ

You can't buy direct from Extravision, Jan, they will just point you to a retailer. And do your maths before you import one eh, might not be as attractive as you think.
@andyanimal31, its tough for a buyer looking for reviews, here am I with a faultless hunting experience of several Vortex Vipers since 2011, here and in Aus, the only one I've seen with a problem which I inspected before potentially buying secondhand had very obviously been dropped. I'm not doubting your word mate at all - please understand that - but I think maybe you should share specifics of why you say that about Vortex.

I think the best anyone can do is look as the major online retailers and read through all the reviews, preferably models the same or similar with hundreds of reviews. BHP Photo, OpticPlanet etc. Internet forums are notoriously difficult to form an objective opinion from due to the inherent bias that we all have, for whatever reasons. Like my bias towards Toyotas and utter disbelief that anyone could ever buy a Land Rover!
