    Rifle Scopes Schmidt & Bender Customer Service

    I wasn't so lucky - in a sense. I have a much older 3-12x50 PMI that went in for a internal lense clean up and the lense cluster in the rear occular was making noise. It was there for a while (a few months?) They fixed it no charge, which was great. But they burned the paint on the rear...

    Rifle Scopes Super Sniper 'fuzzy' at 9x?

    I hear you, but it was for an AR build and the SS seemed to be the right fit for an older AR type build. Been spoiled by German glass over the years. I'm lucky with my eyes, that one is near sighted, one far, so I can close one or the other for better "view" Will be pushing 50 soon and happy...

    Rifle Scopes Super Sniper 'fuzzy' at 9x?

    Thanks Dave, turns out it's operator error, I'm the one that is out of spec. I'm used to older Zeiss, Hensoldt S&B's and didn't realize i need to crank the rear objective out so much to get a thicker / clearer reticle. Being used to moving the rear occular maybe half a turn to get a crisp...

    Rifle Scopes Super Sniper 'fuzzy' at 9x?

    Hi Folks Just picked up a mint second hand 3-9x42 super sniper. Nice scope - a shade heavy, but nice an robust. In setting it up in my AR I noticed that at max magnification - I can't get a clear view and clear reticle - is this normal ? Going to call them today, but thought to ask the hide...

    Accuracy International questions

    Re: Accuracy International questions the action should get smoother with use, my AW did. the number on the bbl is a serial number, my AE is the same way, the barrels are made for the AW, but when installed on a AE the timing is off 90 degrees or so to display the serial number of the barrel...

    Rifle Scopes Hensoldt ZF 10 X 42 on ebay

    Re: Hensoldt ZF 10 X 42 on ebay nice bird dog, though I think it's really a ZF800 with ZF500 knobs. The ZF500 was the 6x42, the ZF800 10x42, afaik.... as long as the click values are the same for both scopes it should BDC out correctly? The only other thing to look out for is that it is in...

    Re: "the Coconut" and a whole lot more comes up..... of course the secret service would not be of help - according to "theorists" it was an agent armed with such a rifle that accidentaly shot JFK (the one that killed him) and then the secret service leaned on the FBI to clamp down on all the...

    Rifle Scopes Schmidt & Bender Awarded the PSR Contract

    Re: Schmidt & Bender Awarded the PSR Contract I'm very happy for S&B, congrats. What ever happened to the "best man getting the job" guys? If the S&B works the best for our fighting men, then more power too them. Just like with the USMC IAR M27 (HK416), if it kicks a$$, and brings them...

    Photos SWFA SS HD 1-4x24 on HK21 & HK23E

    Re: SWFA SS HD 1-4x24 on HK21 & HK23E NICE! Suggestion to use the GGG Bolt gun mount for the gun with the MSG90 scope tabs, fwiw. When I shoot my 11E it feels better to have the scope lower to the bore.

    Rifle Scopes S&B 1-8 Short-Dot

    Re: S&B 1-8 Short-Dot S&B have pulled wholesale pricing for now. Germany says that there is a price increase coming for both the 1-8 and 3-20. Too bad, they seemed to have value (as compared to the CRAZY Leupold pricing). I'm going to put two on order with the understanding that they won't...

    NEW MCMILLAN TACTICAL STOCK...

    Re: NEW MCMILLAN TACTICAL STOCK... Product suggestion, add somekind of car wash scent oil to the moudling of the stock. Like Vanilla, Pina Colada, Pineapple. So when they are at the range, people will ask "What the hell is that smell?" And you can say with pride "That smell is my A-hole...

    Re: AR30 300WM and Steyr SSG 04 300WM I had a SSG04 in 300WM and it was an AWESOME stick, my only druthers is that the stock was too light, you would need to put it into a MCM or something beefier imho. BUT if you needed to carry it, the stock makes sense. Super accurate, lovely build and...
