Hello,
So I have a pentax spotting scope and the visuals are great and accepts standard eye pieces from.various companies.
My question is does anyone know of a company that would be able to manufacture a custom eyepiece with a reticle?
Second, if first is not available, would it be possible to get an etched reticle from eo Edmund's and diy an eye piece?
Third is there a random eyepiece with an etched reticle that I could work the subtentions out for?
Sorry for the rambling
I would be ok with fixed magnification.
Any thoughts?
 
I have a pentax pf65ed. I would be in for a custom eyepiece if this is possible. 20 to 32x would be ideal. I run a fixed pentax xw14 eyepiece now which puts me at 28x with 65mm body. Clarity with the fixed eyepiece is pretty darn good imho.

Keep us posted on what you find.
