    Compact scopes

    I have the VX-R 2-7.
    Hardly take it off my rifle now. Great wee scope. Has all the features I need apart from cm clicks.
    The German 4 ret is awesome in the bush and has the centre of the ret illuminated at the touch of a button. Variable intensity as well.



    I assed up and dinged up the turret caps.
    Need to get some new ones when I get a chance.
    Anyone got any spare?

    Loving it so far. Clear as compared to a vx1 I looked through on a mates gun. Doesnt have a very wide feild of view (4-12x42) but so far so good. Life time warrantee which is good.

    Think Crafty has one in stock you can have a peep at.
    All good, I like the heavy German. I was a bit concerned a bunch of the other offerings were too fine to pick up in the gloom.

    Good one Dave. They are not a bad price either. They do come in metric I think now.

    Including alumina caps I got it into Oz for $400ish
    Thought cm was metric? Lol!
    Get one, the eye relief is really good on the 93
