    Rifle Scopes Schmidt & Bender Customer Service

    If you're in Europe you can take them directly to Biebertal, that's what we do, it's a little over a 2 hour drive up from Stuttgart. Great guys at the service desk and most of the time they will give you a 2-3 hour turn around. The only problem is that we've had to take several up to them in too...

    Rifle Scopes Ior valdada

    wapiti16B, You can search and also go back 3-5 pages and read several threads on IOR scopes. Beware of the posts that bash them without ever owning them or possibly owning one from years ago. You'll also read from a couple of the retailers that have positive remarks, call a few. I've used...

    Rifle Scopes Guidance, Scope Rings Savage 10 FLCP-K. 308

    I have that Savage model and it's one of my most accurate personal rifles. After a couple different high end rails and rings I settled on IOR. The rail is one of the lowest profile manufactured and the rings are matched, using low. What you will need to do is make (or purchase) a kydex cheek...

    Opinion on rifle

    Read some reviews on the SPS and LRTs, the SPS will probably need stock work as the barrel touches stock on way to many of them...if you have a suppressor, it's ready for one. The LRTs have had their own problems over the last several years. Personally I'd look at a Savage TR LE or a 10FCP model.

    Rifle Scopes Looking for help choosing optic with top occular-side performance

    We changed out from using the S&Bs to the IOR 4-28x50 40mm RECON (on our big guns) two years ago and they have been outstanding. The four bolt rifles we are taking to Sochi to use on over watch are IORs. Our lite guns wear Elcan's.

    Rifle Scopes IOR 3-18x42 ?

    It's so funny listening to 5 Jump Chumps, parading around like yardbirds doing the chicken walk. Reminds me so much of the Texas saying "The funny thing about that little white speck on the top of chicken shit...that little white speck is chicken shit too.

    Rifle Scopes IOR 3-18x42 ?

    wrongside, Responded to your PM, you can place it in here if you want, allot of folks seem to reference IOR's of 12 or more years ago. I can remember when NF and S&B's would go belly up all the time! I'm about to head back to my unit after some wonderful weeks at home and in leaving here for a...

    Rifle Scopes Adjusted -0 paralax versus focus

    Things to remember about parallax; Parallax (on a rifle scope) is a correction, not a focusing feature. -Most all long range scopes (older or new fixed and lower adj.mag.) were set to be parallax free at 100 yards. -Newer high magnification scopes require more optical adjustment, especially from...

    Atlas vs Harris Bipod

    Personally I don't care what brand I have or use if I stick one on a rifle. I've seen every brand break apart in field situations and none of them stand out over another. Give me a ruck, a rock or a piece of furniture and I'm happy.

    Rifle Scopes IOR Recon 4-28x50 40mm tube

    wrongside, The more you use that scope the more you will love it. My unit has 4 of them on larger caliber rifles, they replaced the S&B 5-25x56 PM II/LP we had been using and the 4-28x50 40mm RECONs have astounded us for 2 years now.

    Rifle Scopes what would you get for first high end scope...

    KUSA, I asked what your experience was using IOR scopes. When I get a chance to post here, usually like now, when I'm home on leave, I only do so with the thoughts of helping someone who does not get the chance to use and abuse allot of scopes, rifles, etc. My thoughts and conclusions with IOR...

    Rifle Scopes what would you get for first high end scope...

    How many have you used for a length of time? I certainly am not going to go by one (or a few) persons opinion and findings with one scope. I've used several IOR scopes numerous and lengthy times in Afghanistan and countries in North Africa they are very rugged and have held up fine for two...

    Rifle Scopes Leveling scope with feeler gauges.

    I never liked the idea of using feeler gauges when the idea first surfaces years back. I also don't think most recreational shooters really know or shoot consistently enough to worry about rifle cant. My basic method for getting a scope mounted is by using two machined aluminum bars and two...

    Rifle Scopes need to be sent in the right direction

    Before you go back and forth over scopes/rifles/accessories I'd recommend you look into good "shooting schools" in your area. There are quite a few now all over the US. No matter how much you know now you'll come away with a much higher proficiency and in most instances you'll get to use a...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold Mark 4 3.5-10x40???

    There is nothing wrong with that scope and I'd classify it better quality than the others you mention. The VARI-X III 3.5-10 x 40 LR M1 Military (which allot think is a bit better quality than the MK4) is the scope I went through school with and used for many years on various issued systems. Mil...
