    Hunting & Fishing Meopta optika 6 opinion. Very good

    Thanks, on the deer. That was that young mans first buck. Glad yo let him use my rifle and be a part of the whole experience. I can't speak for the OP inventory but I can tell you that they have been flying off the shelves very quickly and many retailers have already put reorders in for my...

    Rifle Scopes Reticles for Meopta Optika 6 scopes.

    I haven't seen the list of DC'd scopes but there are a lot of guys including myself who like the 1-6x24 SFP Optika6 scope. I'm hoping to see some additional reticle options in the future. SAge, great job on the compilation of info. I know I have said it before, you do great work.

    Rifle Scopes Reticles for Meopta Optika 6 scopes.

    Here are the MRAD subtensions. I know they are also on another thread. Meopta isn't going to make the Z-Plus in the 2.5-15x44 scope. A shame since I think it might have been one of my favorite hunting magnification options. Meopta is working hard to make the scopes that you guys want to use...

    Rifle Scopes Reticles for Meopta Optika 6 scopes.

    You will be a lot happier if you move past this BDC3 reticle. If you want to use the Z-Plus(MOA or MRAD as a BDC that is not a problem and can easily be dialed into your ballistics data.

    Hunting & Fishing Meopta optika 6 opinion. Very good

    I have been using the Optika6 3-18x50 scopes for months now. Easily over 600 rounds under 3 different scopes on top of multiple rifles. From a .17 cal airgun to a .375H&H, zero issues with reliability, repeatability or clarity. For hunting their low light visibility is the best I have used. I...

    Rifle Scopes New Meopta Scope - Optika6

    Jafo96, I agree with your statement. Comparing a sub $300 bino to one that costs 3.5 times as much is unrealistic and will lead to disappointment. Looking at the Optika bino against other bino's in that range will give you confidence that you made the right choice for quality and value, IMHO...

    Rifle Scopes New Meopta Scope - Optika6

    Shiples, Thank you for the update. I haven't seen that info previously. Makes sense to get what guys want on their rifles out to them ASAP. I have heard from a number of hunters who are excited about the 2.5-15x44 configuration, a versatile hunting set up. I am loving my 3-18x56, yes, 56...

    Rifle Scopes Nikon FX-1000

    Correct. Once you decide on a non QD mount I get rid of the iron sight so I can get the scope down as low as possible. I have had great success using low Warne mounts when there's a rail involved. Here are 2 pics of my Bergara and Meopta ZD 6-24x56.

    Rifle Scopes Nikon FX-1000

    It appears that you might have a heck of a time getting a consistent cheek weld as high as your scope is mounted? Don't forget that the manufacturer of your scope has now changed their warranty and not for the better.

    Browning X-Bolt Hells Canyon Speed Long Range McMillan

    I agree with the Optika6 scope choice. One heck of an optic for a great price. There's a reason Meopta's Optika6 line of riflescopes is selling like crazy. Great features with the all-important excellent glass that Meopta is known for. The 3-18x50 is a great choice for the deer hunter who also...

    Rifle Scopes Reticles for Meopta Optika 6 scopes.

    I'm sure you will be pleased when you receive yours. I am loving my Optika6's, 1-6x24 and 3-18x56. Putting the 3-18 on my air rifle today. It's Air Rifle Certified so bring on the Springer's! It should be big fun.

    New Meopta Optika6 HD Binoculars are Available

    I have been very impressed with everything I have laid my hands on in the Optika line. The Optika 6 scopes are built tough and the features are what shooters/hunters want. The 1-6x24 I have put over 500 rounds under has become my new favorite short/med range AR scope. I do some freelance work...

    Rifle Scopes Reticles for Meopta Optika 6 scopes.

    I had a pretty awesome range day with my Bergara and Meopta MeoStar 3-12x56 shooting Hornady 143 gr ELD-X bullets. Always nice to have a day like this once in a while.

    Rifle Scopes Reticles for Meopta Optika 6 scopes.

    The 2 scopes I have seen from Meopta have been very impressive as far as quality and price. Both are hunting scopes and not what the longrange shooter would select. It sounds like the reticle Koshkin has designed for Meopta is just what those shooting longrange will want. The not yet out...

    Rifle Scopes Reticles for Meopta Optika 6 scopes.

    I noticed the SFP scope only comes with a Z-Plex 1 reticle but there are a lot of choices with the FFP option. I have one with the KDot Dichro reticle, should be great on hogs using my SBR.
