Selling this to fund other builds. This scope is one of my favorites but it's really too much scope for the rifle it was on. HATE selling it but I shot that rifle twice and hadn't shot it since. Been on the shooting bench only. Was just looking at a 900 meter stop sign in my backyard in clear, sunny conditions with mirage, and I could see EVERY bit of detail on that sign. I have everything it came with, plus a mirage cap custom made by Kreativ Solutions. The rear scope cap is right from Zeiss, and the front is custom made, so that you can flip up the cap and still screw in a sun shade or mirage cap. This scope is pristine. It was my crown jewel but I really dont shoot the rifle it was on so, here she is.

NO trades, and paypal f&f preferred.

I don't mean to clutter your post but have been curious about this optic and it's
Jap glass, how is the clarity and color on the edges of the image, does it maintain full crisp image from the lowest zoom factor all the way to the highest or does it start to wash out as you approach the high or low extremes of its magnification (I ask because I had a v4 5-20 or 25 idr, that it's color and clarity was less than true at the upper end of magnification) also how much does it tunnel on the low end?

Ok, just took it out back and looked through it with this post in hand. It was a clear, overcast day, looking at a parking lot and cars about 800m out. Edge to edge clarity and color is surprisingly crisp. Never really tested that as I never really look there but it's clean and vivid from 6-36.
As far as tunneling on the low end, it's in my opinion that it's really not that different from high mag to low mag. The image remains pretty steady throughout. The picture in this scope to me, is the most impressive I've seen outside of a top of the tier optic. I never get to shoot at the 1000m line at dawn or dusk, but during the day there's nothing this scope would hold me back from.
