So which is your favorite scope overall?
Are there any videos out there through the scope? I'm seriously considering one of these.
Would be hard pressed to choose. Thank God I don't have to... yet.
They each have their pros and cons. One of these days I'll do a write up.
Lol...couldnt help but ask as a guy who could only afford 1, thanks for the videos!
HKDave has way too much disposable income...damn
Hmm if I could only have one, and provided they all track and have great glass, I'd pick the one with my favorite reticle. I think Minox and Vortex have got the reticle thing down. The Gen2XR and Mil-R are plenty serviceable, but I prefer what Minox and Vortex have been producing.
I've been collecting for a longgg time... and most of my underwear have holes in them and ramen is my favorite food.
I'm interested in hearing where you hit infinity on your parallax at. From my conversation with cstactical today I came away understanding there was a change on where they set some lenses. Seems most of us with prior scopes where hitting infinity at around 600.
Had to spend some time at the range before answering. I’m not quite to infinity at 600y but close.
Thank you sir. I've spent some time talking to CS tactical and ended up buying a ATACR in MILC to replace an AMG and am waiting on more MR4s to come in stock. Looking to compare the new ones with the one I already have to see if they gave some more adjustment on the high end for parallax.
I know Dave is gonna give me some hard love over this but, I just snagged another Minox MR4 from the PX yesterday. I just felt like I had to try another one cause I loved the reticle so damn much.. I love the MR4 reticle... Got a great deal on it too, just hope everything is peachy with it...
I think the reticle is great. I love the whole scope really, I almost never get into the second rev here on the east coast so that's not an issue to me at all. The MILC in my hands is like a MR4 with no tree under it. It's sweet. I'm going to end up with two of either one of these scopes, not sure which yet.
How does the ATACR glass stack up to the Minox? Also, are the center dots about the same size in both?
Any updates on owner's of this scope ? Still Happy with the performance and has there been any inssues worth talking about?
Would you buy it again if you could do it over ?
Thanks...
MR4 owner here........no issues. Over the moon about them, just like the day I received it.Any updates on owner's of this scope ? Still Happy with the performance and has there been any inssues worth talking about?

MR4 owner here too....great scope and I would purchase it again !Any updates on owner's of this scope ? Still Happy with the performance and has there been any inssues worth talking about?

For those saying that the ZP5 is their most fav scope that they have every ran...have you checked out a Tangent Theta? Wondering how they compare...
I will admit I haven't. I haven't even seen one on any firing line I've been to. I'd really love to get a look through one, but I have two reasons for not jumping into one:
1. First and foremost, is the cost, or more appropriately said, the benefit for the cost. I don't mind spending money on my scopes or rifles. I have or have owned Steiners, Schmidts, Vortex, and obviously the Minox, and I've spent time behind NF, Kahles, and quite a few others. But if I'm going to pay a $1000+ premium over what I spent on the Minox to get into justa Tangent Theta, it needs to provide me with something the others can't or do something better, and from what someone else who did compare the Minox with the TT said on here, "Save the money and go with the Minox."
2. Reticle choice. This really ties in with what I said about I need it to do something the others cant. TT's current reticle choice is Gen2XR or whatever they offer in MOA. Well, I don't use MOA and the Schmidt sitting on my DTA SRS has the Gen2XR reticle, so what does TT offer me that the Schmidt or Minox don't? Frankly, the MR4 reticle is perfect for me, although I like the Gen3XR reticle Tangent Theta will be offering soon.

It's on the under side of the eye piece. You likely have a sticker on the box (sometimes these are wrong from people at a store putting them on display and reboxing when purchased).Just got my ZP5. Now trying to register the product on Minox.com and they are asking for the serial number. Where can I find it? Cheers
Had my ZP5 out today but completely spaced on getting you a measurement, someone will probably beat me to it but shoot me a PM and I’ll get that for you.Can anyone tell me the bell diameter of the ZP5?
Not to highjack the thread but with all of the Minox scope glass love why are their Spotting scopes not more popular especially with a reticle offering ??
I am debating about buying the Mr80 . How does it look compared to say a Hendsolt 60?@Texaslongshot I bought their MR80 and it is amazing. The glass is unbelievable. I was looking at 4in wide sporting clays at 1 mile. The ranging reticle is the best on the market. Don't hesitate to buy there spotter. Right now with their deal, it is by far the best spotter on the market, for the money.
The OD of the objective bell of the ZP5 5-25x56 is 2.442" in diameter. Also keep in mind the Tenebraex cap adds another .135" below the objective bell, so from the center of the scope to the bottom of the Tenebraex cap would be 1.356"Can anyone tell me the bell diameter of the ZP5?
