I'm trying to find some through the scope reticle pics on a USO 3.8-22x scope. Does anybody have (or can you take) some nice through the scope pics for the following reticles? Prefer sky shots if possible.

Pics needed:
-MOA Scale Type 1 reticle pic at 3.8x
-MOA Scale Type 1 reticle pic at 22x
-MOA Scale Type 1 reticle pic at 22x illuminated (green or red)
-PCMOA reticle at 3.8x
-PCMOA reticle at 22x
-PCMOA reticle at 22x illuminated (green or red)

I realize this is a big request but I want to make sure I get my next USO scope order right.

Thanks!

 
Re: Request for reticle pics on USO 3.8-22x - Reward!

Have you checked on what it takes to ship primers? If you're all setup for that fine, but if you are just a guy with some spare primers I wanted to make sure you knew what you were getting into. FedEx and such requires that you be a pre-registered hazardous material shipper and such, you can't just pop into your local Mailboxes Etc with a brick of 210's...

Just trying to help, sorry but I don't have a 22x but having used a MOA ret @ 10x and 17x I would imagine that it would subtend pretty easily @ 22x. @ 10x it was a little small, IMHO.

If you wanted MPR reticle pics for that scope I would be all over this

. I'm surprised no one has taken you up on your offer yet, those reticles are fairly popular. Good luck!

Hmmm, must say I am a bit embarrassed that I didn't realize that I had to be pre-registered for primers..... I had always just picked stuff up locally so never got involved with shipping primers. Now powder I've mail ordered and realized there was a HazMat fee but didn't realize the same for primers......

Well, heck.... I'll see if I can come up with something else that is of interest to somebody willing to help.

I realize this is a big request but I want to make sure I get my next USO scope order right. So as a reward, I will send the person that supplies the photos 2 boxes of 100ea Federal 210M primers shipped at my expense...... If you can get all of the photos of one reticle type, you get 1 box of 210M primers, simple as that.... Post them here and then send me an email with the high res pic. Must be good quality.

Thanks!

Photos are not very good representations of a given scope's reticle subtentions at any given power. They're OK, but the reticle rarely looks the same as it appears when looking through a scope, and the reticle never looks as sharp and black either. If you are anywhere with a two-hour drive of Brea (where USO is located), I suggest you call USO and see if they have any 3.8-22X scopes with the reticles you are considering that you can look through.

They usually have a few scopes there for demo purposes, but they may also have some scopes ready for shipping to customers that you <span style="font-style: italic">may be allowed to look through</span>. If they have what you are interested in, try to arrange a day that you can drive out there and look through the scope(s) yourself.
