Rifle Scopes Anything new that's better than a K16i?

[tna9001]

Hey Guys,

It's been a few years, I've had a gen 1 Razor 1-6 and a K16i, the Razor was very good and the K16i was amazing. I'm back in the market for an LPVO and I'm wondering if the K16i is still king of the 1-6?

Thank you!

For LPVO, used Swarovski Z6i 1-6 or current model Swarovski Z8i 1-8. The two you mentioned and the Swarovskis are probably the best options for 3-gun use. Maybe a Zeiss v8, but it's probably heavier and the reticle doesn't look ideal. The Kahles and Swarovskis have good all around reticles for a SFP LPVO, in my opinion.

Most people on this forum are discussing FFP long range scopes though...more precision rifle focused.

Im hoping for shot show to have some LPVO offerings.The K16i and razor gen2-e are 2 scopes that I own and like.

The Blaser 1-7x28 looks very interesting, but the only reticle they offer (so far) is a German #4 style. Optically, it may be the best LPVO now available. Koshkin posted a video review of it here.

With SFP LPVOs, if you want SFP, it is between Kahles K16i and Leica Magnus 1-6.3x24, I think.

For the most flexibility, March LPVOs with side focus are probably still the best. Their 1-10x24SFP now has a flash dot reticle which makes it faster, but it is narrower FOV, so it is a little less quiick than the Kahles and Leica.
