    Rifle Scopes Most forgiving eye relief?

    Re: Most forgiving eye relief? http://www.cdnninvestments.com/kahecl3scwre1.html CDNN Investments publishes 3.6" eye relief for the 3-9x42. Kahles just redid their website. Looks like they'll be carrying just the CSX and K models in the near future. Out of the mid-range market it seems.

    Rifle Scopes starting to get pretty freakin sucked off

    Re: starting to get pretty freakin sucked off Alternate your tightening pattern just like the lugs on your car/truck wheels. Over tightening one side first will torque your scope scope before it's set.

    Rifle Scopes Spotting Scope HD Question?

    Re: Spotting Scope HD Question? In my opinion the HD, APO, ED optics are going to be a step up from the non-upgraded glass. I searched around and couldn't find any body types that matched the Cabela's HD body. Their Euro binos are made by Meopta, but badged with Meopta's logo as well...

    Rifle Scopes Spotting Scope HD Question?

    Re: Spotting Scope HD Question? Non HD or Non APO? If it's APO snagged it quick. Don't know anything about Cabela's brand optics, they are very secretive about their contracted manufacurer(s). But from what I've witnessed they are usually a good value. If you select the Leica, your resale...

    Rifle Scopes Help me choose a spotting scope

    Re: Help me choose a spotting scope Just read up on the Ethos...WoW! And the price...WoW! How do you compare TeleVue with the Pentax XW line of eyepieces?

    Rifle Scopes Help me choose a spotting scope

    Re: Help me choose a spotting scope That would be nice. Since the Pentax has the 1.25" barrel you can start your shopping now. Google it, Bing it, Ask it, then, let me know what you find. There's going to be thousands of eyepieces out there, but most are astronomical related, so very hard...

    Rifle Scopes Help me choose a spotting scope

    Re: Help me choose a spotting scope CanPopper, excellent digividing. One day I'll set my point and shoot up to my PF80 and shoot live feed of me paper punching. I always thought that would be fun. What is the focal length of the PF100? Thanks! deeno360, I bought my set up from Doug at...

    Rifle Scopes Just received my 2.5x10x42MM IOR

    Re: Just received my 2.5x10x42MM IOR Iron Worker, What do you think about that floating dot? I have the SFP model and boy does that dot play tricks sometimes. Seems to disappear when my eye is focused on the target. It's a great training aid I believe to help focus on both reticle and...

    Rifle Scopes KonusPRO M-30 series 8.5x-32x Review

    Re: KonusPRO M-30 series 8.5x-32x Review There's a Konus dealer at the gun shows most of the time. I'll have to give it another go. The view last time was somewhat bent in image and the color representation was off by a large degree. It felt like I was looking through a fish tank. They must...

    Rifle Scopes KonusPRO M-30 series 8.5x-32x Review

    Re: KonusPRO M-30 series 8.5x-32x Review It must be that companies starting out use the best they can afford and send the savings down to the customers, then after time invest in better technologies of lenses, coatings, etc. Because any and all Konus scopes I've looked through were a...

    Rifle Scopes Help me choose a spotting scope

    Re: Help me choose a spotting scope I would put in a vote for the Pentax 80mm ED as well. I have this scope, looked through Leica and Swarovski and can't see the difference for the price difference. A unit can be had for $1K with a variable eyepiece and you could buy two fixed eyepieces for...

    Rifle Scopes Pentax Lightseeker 30

    Re: Pentax Lightseeker 30 I must be the only one with good luck with Pentax products! I've read so many forums with people downing Pentax that I wonder if there's a QC issue. Not to take away from the fact that there are positive posts as well. I've never looked through a SIII, but have had a...

    Rifle Scopes Pentax Lightseeker 30

    Re: Pentax Lightseeker 30 I have a 3-10x40 LS 30 and I find it's very comparable to my Conquest and previous VXIII and BigSkys that I've owned in terms of glass quality, sharpness and repeatability of adjustments. I can't speak for the LR model, but Pentax has great products for their market...

    Rifle Scopes help with nxs choice

    Re: help with nxs choice I'm sure that your uncovered dials won't give an integrity issue. Most quality brand optics are designed waterproof. The covers would be to prevent unwanted adjustments.
