Rifle Scopes New Schmidt & Bender PM2 6-36x56

[pucker]

I’m too lazy to check if someone has already posted this, but here is the S&B official list of updated items on their 5-25:

Riflescopes - New Products - 5-25x56 PM II - NEW

www.schmidtundbender.de

1. Metal mag ring
2. “…the diopter has been redesigned in order to attach our military grade Polarization Filter Ocular via a thread. The ribbed structure of the diopter adjustment makes it suitable for the tactical Tenebraex Ocular Lens Cover.”
3. Flat turrets (D27)
4. P5FL Reticle

So…STILL no mention of addressing tunneling or tumor.

Again, a complete redesign (not an easy mag ring swap) doesn’t make sense when the 6-36 exists…as it would surely drive costs into the same bracket.

Sigh.

Again. Call S&B USA and ask. Jerry will tell you it doesnt anymore.

 

[clonebuilder]

People abroad already have them in hand i guess

Optics Trade has a video on YouTube showing the updated 5-25. According to the video it still has the tunneling effect and it does still have the illumination knob

Well. Shit. If thats the case my 3K one is a steal.

Worthless because you can’t put a shark fin on it.

Not good enough, needs to be at least $150.

Was looking for the factory throw lever @TheOE800 was liking… This is the damnedest industrial design…snag-a-tronic

Dual-use. Sharpen it and peel an apple while you shoot. You’ll poke your eye out kid.

Or glide through the river like Chuck Norris

Ok more like this

 

[TheOE800]

It’s so dumb I love it.

Set youtube resolution / frame rate to 2,160pixel/4K it looks alot better

Also, Is this supposed to demonstrate daylight bright reticle ilumination or is this CGI

I noticed that too, wasn't sure if my mind was playing tricks but I think I can still see the illuminated center on the white bird, I'm so used to Schmidt's illumination being somewhat lackluster, but that looked impressive though it was an overcast day so let's see it under bright sun

Yeah. That and the P5FL looks pretty good. Just wish that center dot was 0.03/0.04 mils and not 0.07.

Who do I speak with about getting the DTII+ swapped in place of my DT?

 

[Doctorwho1138]

aaaaa SAA

Who do I speak with about getting the DTII+ swapped in place of my DT?

i contacted them here

[email protected]

I will go ahead and say it’s very expensive. I decided against it. Good luck

 

[Tokay444]

Multiple thousands of dollars?

 

[Glassaholic]

Multiple thousands of dollars?

A while back it was around $800, but that was pre-COVID, not sure what it is these days

 

[Tokay444]

I’d jump on that all day.

 

[clonebuilder]

I’d jump on that all day.

call the S&B USA Winchester, VA customer service line, I think its around 800, and reticle swaps are 550 for non horus non finnaccuracy

 

[Tokay444]

Thanks guys.
I have a box of 105 Hybrids I can sell to fund this.

 

[Kiba]

I didn't think they could swap the standard DT turrets for the DT2, I thought the main scope body was different to accommodate the larger DT2 turrets and it was cost prohibitive to replace the entire scope body.

Maybe I got bad info or things have changed...

 

[Doctorwho1138]

I think you are correct. I couldn’t find the email reply but I think it’s around 800 per turret. I was told that most people just do the elevation turret. I am sure they are amazing but i couldn’t justify the expense for my use.

Yeah. It’s worth it just buying outright

 

[Doctorwho1138]

Yeah. It’s worth it just buying outright

Yeah I wouldn’t buy one without it if buying new that’s for sure.

 

[Huskydriver]

The elevation is like 750 wingage to zc is like 600 iirm...

Parts are several weeks out per Jerry iirm when you are ready.

yeahhhh, def not worth it for the turrets tbh. Reticles at 750 for an MSR2 swap and 550 for others is decent.

Or just buy one that already has them.

I think you are correct, i called Jerry last week about upgrading MTC turrets to the new DTII and the main body is different. No go on my older 5-25 MTC MSR

 

[clonebuilder]

Anyone with MTII turrets, are they the same feel-wise as the DTII+?

 

[BCX]

I think the P5FL will make a fine hunting reticle....i see 2 6-36 in my future

I asked about that (DT or MTC to DTII) as well...LOL

My MTC version is a spare. The one on my rimfire is the original DT which is still pretty acceptable.
