Thread: New scope

Worth looking out for an older Leica ER 3.5-14 x 42, picked one up here (Scotland) for just under $900 NZD.

Dial turret, side focus, light, excellent glass and good eye relief/box compared to FOV. Made in Germany.

Downsides, turret is single turn non-locking, only 20 odd MOA worth of elevation.

No illumination (not a negative or positive).

Personally avoid illuminated reticles unless needed twilight/night shooting (I guess you bush hunters may find it useful sometimes), rare for them to be daylight bright and light with good battery life. Swaro seem to have it down pat with their z8i but that is serious coin...
