Rifle Scopes I may regret this

[Ferryman]

Recently I shelled out for a USO SN-3 for my .300Win Mag but I still needed scopes for my .308 and .223

I would dearly love another USO but cannot wait 16 weeks.

I was offered a killer deal on a Leupold Mk4 6.5X20X50 M1 so in a moment of weakness I shelled out the cash.

I reckon that at the price I paid if I keep it for a year I will still break even on selling it.

Here is hoping I have a good one.

You'll be happy with what you got in your hand. I waited 7 months for my Premier Reticles scope and am still not sure I'm happy with it.

You should have sent us an e-mail. Due to some great efforts made by our assembly team and machine shop our lead times have been brought down to 6-8 weeks.

Sounds good Ferryman. Have fun at the shoot.

The cross hairs are very thin and the windage knob does not click like the elevation knob. They send me new pieces to fix the knob but I was a little concerned that they had a preprinted instruction sheet to install the new part. The glass is beyond belief (5-25) and overall this is a very solid scope. I'll be getting back out with it soon so hopefully I'll learn to like it. I have a S&B 3-12 (as well as one of their fixed 4 powers). I can't say that I like it better, just different.

I'm not sure the windage knob is suppose to click the same as the elevation, I had a 8.5-25 FFP mark 4 that had a audible and tactile elevation turret but a silent windage turret. I could be wrong though, I am the New Guy.
