I own a Premier Reticles 3-15 with a Gen II reticle, I also own a S&B 4-16X50 with a Gen II XL reticle and a S&B 5-25x56 with a P4F reticle.
I've just gotten off the phone with Nathan of HuDisCo, who is the distributor of Hensoldt scopes. Nathan has agreed to send me on of his 4-16 FFP scopes for me to host a scope viewing if there is any interest in having this sort of thing.
I met Nathan down at Rifles Only at the Cup last month, I guess that's why he's agreed to send me one of his toys to play with.
I would propose that this take place in about a month to six weeks. This would allow anyone in the surrounding area to make plans to be in Alvin should they want to look through some high end glass. I know it's a big leap of faith buying something sight unseen when it costs this much money cause I've been there. That's why I figured there may be some guys in the area who would like to come check out some different high end glass under the same field conditions.
I'm not making anything for doing this, in fact it'll take part of a weekend that I would be sewing product in order to pull this off. So, I'd like to know if there is any interest in me getting my scopes together and having Nathan send out one of his scopes out for an evaluation by prospective buyers.
This will not be a shooting event at all, it will only be a viewing event. At this point I don't know where I can get it set up, probably at the local community college parking lot. That location would allow several vehicles to drive right up to where we'll be set up, and there will be long distances to look at through the scopes. Hopefully it'll be a warm day and there'll be some mirage to be able to compare apples to apples through.
I guess you guys can let me know here how much interest there is in putting together something like this and we'll see if we can make it happen.
