    Rifle Scopes S&B 10X42 PM II vs Leupold MK4 10X40 M3

    Re: S&B 10X42 vs Leupold MK4 10X40 M3 The S&B 10x42 is a fantastic scope. I have yet to own a scope with a better image quality than the 10x42 schmidt, and that includes variable schmidts. The SSHD I have looked through and it was very nice too. I would pass on the USO, I had one once and...

    Rifle Scopes Low Profile Scope Caps?

    Re: Low Profile Scope Caps? You can use a Leupold Alumina scope cap which will screw into your objective, the 50mm one apparently fits a NF. I do not know if the eyepiece cap is compatible. The alumina caps are pricey, I have them on a Mark4 and they IMO the absolute best lens cap solution...

    Rifle Scopes Schmidt or Hensoldt???

    Re: Schmidt or Hesoldt??? Why is it that every scope thread that does not mention USO becomes plagued with random USO fanboys? I tried the USO koolaid and was thoroughly unimpressed. Other than the repeat QC issues, there is no way that a USO is on par with an S&B or Hensoldt. Every...
