Mil apparently loves them 🤷‍♂️

Similar experience here. Schmidt has really good edge to edge sharpness as well. Again, similar, all the scopes I tested were outstanding and would have been very close but the TT just stood out at practically every magnification and really pulled away at >25x. I might see if I can grab...

I have a set of the new UHD 8x32 coming my way, I like compact/lightweight units. Which ones did you grab?

^^^ Wow. Nice!

Sounds like they need to meet 😏😝

Now you have me curious, might try to grab another RG3 and another Schmidt at some point. Not saying the Schmidt was bad by any means but the RG3 was slightly better at top mag. The Tangent absolutely crushed them all at 35x, I was expecting to see falloff but it was like it kept getting...

You have a terrible Razor or I have an amazing one, yes, the IQ does fall off some after 25x but "turns into PST" is definitely not the experience with mine. At 30x my RG3 was neck and neck with Schmidt, at 35x/36x it actually bested the Schmidt slightly on my resolution charts.

Glad to hear you're still doing that, I miss the updates and the pics of the kids as you bless them and the community's down there.

Oh man... Horta's Palace of Poo would have been awesome...

I had the RG2 3-18x50 in house that I had with Steiner T6Xi 3-18x56 and Delta Stryker 3.5-21x44. I have to say the RG2 3-18 for being over a decade old was a surprisingly good performer, the reason this scope did not do better was because it was simply too heavy for the user base of a 3-18 form...

IMO the wider FOV of the non-USA Schmidt 6-36 gives it a significant advantage over most other scopes out there (even the TT 7-35), I think that has to be taken into consideration and is likely why I felt in some areas the Vortex RG3 did better than the Schmidt. Regardless, all these alpha...

Nice, can I apply to be one of yer farm hands? You don't pee on them do you? :LOL: Wait, you pee on everything, well that brings new meaning to the term "coating", will this be called Hortacoating, does it glow in the dark? Here I am showing off some of my engineyouitty Okay, not actually...

Who are "we"? I've always known TheHorta to be a collective of one, but if you are multitude I'd like to know... Glad to know the Hide will have yet another good resource for scope specific Cerakoting. To be honest I'm pretty nervous about sending my optics off to someone for the above...

You know me and you know I love wider FOV, that said, I never felt with the TT 7-35 or the Schmidt 6-36 (USA) that these scopes were really lagging behind the likes of the wider FOV scopes I was comparing with. The TT 7-35 reminded me of my initial response when I first looked through the ZCO...

That's what my evaluation turned up as well, I even think the TT 7-35 is "better" than the TT 5-25 from a purely optical standpoint, but with the TT 5-25 and most of us (ELR shooters included) not needing above 25x I still think the TT 5-25 represents the better value and offers slightly wider FOV.

Oh nice, I always thought those % off everything deals had fine print and I always thought Swarovski and some other mfr's were included in that, but that is something for me to keep my eye on, thanks for the tip.

Wish I was available tonight for the livestream, would love to compare notes.

Which Meopta’s? And where on earth did you find a Swaro on sale, they seem to never go on sale.

Ah, then I'm guessing the Black RG3 6-36 is not part of this deal :(

Ernst Abbe of the "Abbe" in Abbe Koenig was co owner of Zeiss way back when, so the design has its roots in Germany, it is a popular albeit somewhat heavy design so these binos typically weigh more than their Schmidt-Pechan brethren which has largely taken over the high end market. Some would...
