I have cleaned my closet and have had this for several years and don't know much about it. Has anybody used one of these before? I am going to sell it and really cannot find much about it via Google. Must be old.

Re: Hensoldt 10X42 Mil dot
So is that a 1" tube or what? Anyone know for sure?
That scope looks just the S&B 10X42 Classic...

Re: Hensoldt 10X42 Mil dot
I had that scope. It had the BDC knobs for the 308. It was an incredible scope. Clear as a bell and small and compact. You have a keeper and I would recommend not selling it unless absolutely necessary.

26mm is not 1". There is a little difference Filepe.

Re: Hensoldt 10X42 Mil dot
Wonder if a guy could get or make a 26mm lapping bar and just enlarge a pair of 1"'ers.....? Whats out there for 26mm rings?

It would be easier to use 30mm to 26mm reducers.

Re: Hensoldt 10X42 Mil dot
Thanks Shay!
Thats a sweet scope...I could find a home for that. If it doesnt come up for sale I'll see if I can land another one somewhere...

Re: Hensoldt 10X42 Mil dot
I really want to put this on the block and put the $ on a NF or Leupold with more power (12-20). Eyes are not as good as they could be. This came from a army buddy that was a sniper some time ago. It definitely has ring marks. Here are other photos of the adjustments with better clarity.

Send me an email with the Serial number and photos attached.
We can still get PDF owners manuals for some of these...

Was it painted with green duracoat? Did you get it from a guy here on the Hide?

Re: Hensoldt 10X42 Mil dot
No I have had this since the mid 90's and I don't even know what duracoat is? It has sat in my closet since then. Now that the kids are a little older I am getting into shooting- but want a scope with more power. This thing is crystal clear for sure.

Re: Hensoldt 10X42 Mil dot
I just know that getting rid of my scope like this was one of those regretful decisions. I hope you truly think it through as these are excellent scopes.

Re: Hensoldt 10X42 Mil dot
I'd buy it, it would look great on my 308. I wouldn't get rid of it either, those hensoldts are nice scopes.

Re: Hensoldt 10X42 Mil dot
When it comes to 26mm rings its so easy to open up a 1" ring if you just have access to a lathe.
First turn out a round bar to 1".
With the round bar in the lathe mount the ring on the round bar but so you can turn half the ring to 26mm.
Repeat with the other ring.
Turn now out another round bar that is 26mm and clamp the ring the other way around and turn that inside.
Wery simple, dosent take long time either.
