    WTB WTB Leupold Competition 35 or 40x45 Scope

    Thanks Lance but even 40x is pushing it for my application so 42x is too much. Appreciate it though.

    WTB WTB Leupold Competition 35 or 40x45 Scope

    Will consider any reticle but if you by chance have one with a custom Mildot or MOA reticle so much the better. Would also consider any high end fixed power scope in 35-40x. Not sure who makes/made them (other than March) so let me know if you have something.

    Focus change with brightness?

    I was a bit skeptical about the ocular making a dif but I don’t have the scope expertise of a lot of y’all so I figured why not give it a try. I never used scoped rifles in the Marines, just an M16 with iron sights. Re pellet rifles, I just bought 6,400 pellets for $200 so the cost-benefit is...

    Focus change with brightness?

    So...adjusting the ocular did not work. Once the sun came out I focused the scope at a known distance and as usual the range shown on the focus wheel was several yards short of the actual distance. I put the focus wheel at the known distance and of course it was blurry...I then adjusted the...

    Focus change with brightness?

    I calibrate the parallax side wheel (6” in diameter) by setting out targets at 2 yard intervals, focusing the scope, and marking the side wheel. This particular scope was calibrated in overcast weather during the winter. I assume if I had calibrated it during sunny bright weather the effect...

    Focus change with brightness?

    Thinking about what Larry said...everyone who uses reading glasses (which I do) knows it is a lot easier to read in bright light as the pupil is constricted so maybe that has something to do with it...my depth of field is greater as the brightness increases? Will try focusing with reading...

    Focus change with brightness?

    I think I’m missing an obvious solution but can’t put my finger on it. Using a March HM 10-60x56 scope (an couple of years old, not the newer one with the thermal compensation) for field target which is an air rifle discipline that uses the parallax of a scope to range targets from 10-55 yds...

    Rifle Scopes 16x Fixed Power

    Looking for a 16x fixed power scope, preferably Zeiss or S&B, not sure if Zeiss ever even made a 16x scope, but I saw an older S&B 16x on ebay a few months ago. Gone now. If you know which top end mfrs made one of these I’d appreciate it.
