    Rifle Scopes S&B : New 3-27x PMII -- On the site!

    I'm not sure where it came from but PMII's were warranted for 30 years until recently, not lifetime. I have 10 year old paperwork from a 3-12 PMII and it clearly states 30 years. If someone has warranty paperwork stating lifetime on a PMII I'd be very interested in seeing it. Also, if you have...

    Rifle Scopes S&B : New 3-27x PMII -- On the site!

    Graham, I can't speak of the scopes you sent back for issues and I'm sure you had good reason for doing so. However, insinuating that your longest and best contact left our company as an indication of problems is absurd. I realize you two were pals but please don't refer to him as a "long...

    Rifle Scopes S&B : New 3-27x PMII -- On the site!

    I agree. And we all should only buy vehicles from manufacturers that offer lifetime warranties because five years is just pure BS!! They obviously don't have faith in their products.

    Rifle Scopes S&B : New 3-27x PMII -- On the site!

    I believe the MSR will be an option or the scope can be ordered with one once options are listed and production begins. I will admit there were problems associated with the locking turrets but I will also admit that more than 50% of those issues were a misunderstanding of the function and lack...

    Rifle Scopes S&B : New 3-27x PMII -- On the site!

    The confidence in our product has absolutely nothing to do with warranty periods. And that has honestly got to be one of most ridiculous posts I've seen yet. But I'm sure there will be more.

    AnschutzNerd Back up a bit and look at my post that you quoted. If you're going to quote me it would help to include the entire post to get a more clear message across of what I was saying or at least referring to. The partial quote you used was regarding price and had nothing to do with...

    Rifle Scopes help name this scope!

    At one time, Schott had a glass manufacturing facility in Jena, Germany. It may still be in production I'm not sure. Also, Karl Zeiss' body was laid to rest in a cemetery in Jena, Germany. My guess would be that you most likely have a Jena Glassworks manufactured Zeiss optic. The vintage is...

    Rifle Scopes Explain scope construction to me.

    There are far many more reasons for this than can possibly be explained in just a matter of a few words. Just a small example is that there are no moving lenses in the image erecting system and typically less overall components throughout the entire optic. Fixed power scopes are typically less...

    Rifle Scopes S&B : New 3-27x PMII -- On the site!

    As I said before, this may not be for everyone and civilian sales were not a factor in the design of this optic. It's just that it is now becoming available to civilians. Like it or not. Everyone has an opinion.

    Rifle Scopes S&B : New 3-27x PMII -- On the site!

    No, trust me on this. There is a difference in 25x and 27x and it is far more than just an extra 2x magnification. You must also consider that the lens system and overall optical design on the 3-27x56 is about 10 years newer than the 5-25 and anyone in tune knows that the optics industry has...

    Rifle Scopes S&B : New 3-27x PMII -- On the site!

    MSRP is $5,559.00 and is expected as a fall 2013 release. There will be an optional 36 mil elevation knob if you need it. Also, if you've ever looked through one of these you would quickly realize that 30-35x magnification is simply not needed for the optics intended purpose. The 3-27x56...

    Rifle Scopes NF 3.5x15x50 F1 or S&B PMII 3x20x50

    Very interesting observation on the 3-20. I have never seen any tunneling on the 3-20 and am pretty sure you must have it confused with the 5-25x56.

    Let's see those semi auto rigs!

    Accuracy is far better than I would have ever expected. Reliability, well, it is an HK. Certainly an acquisition I will never regret.

    Let's see those semi auto rigs!

    I've been told end of summer/fall time frame. Production models are slated to have double turn locking elevation as well as illumination. The current low profile elevation knob will only increase in height by about 1.5mm for the double turn design and will offer either 32 or 34 mil of adjustment...

    Rifle Scopes Perplexed about S&B

    You're obviously looking only at the "zone" you're dialing in to and not the corresponding arrows with the letters R and L. When you're dialing towards the L look at the arrow above the L and you'll see quite clearly that you're dialing point of impact right. The arrow over the L clearly...

    Rifle Scopes How close is too close as far as scope objective and rail/barrel

    Measuring 5 index cards (approx. .068". cards vary) I would say it is plenty of clearance and you are more than good. If any component on your set up expands, flexes or moves enough to create contact you have some serious firearms or optics related issues which should be addressed immediately...

    Rifle Scopes S&B reticle shifting problem

    Sorry, but the above quote is a horribly inaccurate diagnosis and description of function. This is known as reticle jump and occurs when reversing the direction of the vario and has has no affect whatsoever on the relationship between point of aim and point of impact. If this were second...
