I snagged a Premier Reticle 3-15, so I no longer have a need for this. The scope is NIB / never mounted.

I’m looking to break even on what I paid. The price has continued to climb on EO, so between the price increases and sales tax you should save at least $500 vs. buying one new.

For the scope only (does not include scope caps): $3625 shipped via UPS to the lower 48. If you’d like insurance, I’ll run the difference and add that on top.

For the scope caps: I’ll only offer these to whoever purchases the scope. We can discuss price, I just want to break even, but the front cap wasn’t necessarily cheap / is very tough to find.

No trades at this time. I prefer PP F&F or Zelle for payment. A normal check is also fine, I’d just need to wait for funds to clear prior to shipping. Thanks for looking and let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks. I really liked the idea of going with a “lesser known” optic that was still correct for an A5. I heard the parallax turret is prone to issues, so we’ll see how it holds up.

Mine is a ST not that it matters but it does.

I don't even know if my parallax works and it may even "wander" as I fire, still though it hits and is a pleasure to get behind.

Maybe that says more about the rifle than the scope, both together are what I consider my "go to" for classes and when I want to remove "gear" from the variable possibility.

There were two parallax knobs. One marked and one not and from I recall reading the unmarked was more problematic. That’s what I have. Also read to torque the badger rings toward the lower end of the spec and you’d never have an issue. I have mine at 15 in lbs. some suggest lower.

I have a premier usmc marked s&b and it took me a lot longer to find the 22mil single turn gen 2 mildot than the s&b. The premier was cheaper by a good bit, though! Most of the premiers I found were either the double turn or the 14mil single turn. GLWS.

Copy that. Mine is unmarked, and I heard that was the one with problem as well. Good to know on the torque spec. That’s solid you found a premier usmc marked S&B. I knew they were floating around out there, but I gave up looking after a couple of years.
