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.
 
The Leupold M1-16X was usable and good for 1,000-yard competition. Not so good when the sun starts to set.

Once they get older adjustments get sloppy. The USAMU retired them and went to Nightforce NXSs between 2000 and 2003.
 
I'm only aware of SWFA and IOR offering fixed 16x these days.

Love to get my hands on one, or maybe two of them. You know what they did with them, Dave?
