Thread: Zero Compromise Optics, anyone got one or looked through one?

Looked through their spec sheet.

Always going to be one thing on paper and another in the field.

With specs like light transmission and field of view being talking points it seems scope weight and length are only going up, along with tube size for elevation.

Dropped a lot of coin on a second hand S&B Ultra Short, when turned up to max (20 power) the optics are certainly not as good/hi-def as some of the other big names, but I like it, which is what matters in the end.

Having said that, it needed to be sent back to the factory on day one as the zero stop on the elevation turret was not moving.

Good thing I bought from a dealer despite the usual 'fine when it left here' line, when it turned up at the factory in Germany on a Monday it was back on my door by that Friday (and living in the middle of nowhere, post by ferry) all sorted and serviced with apologies, despite the fact it was someone else in the UK who fucked up.

Anyway sorry for the rant, point being everyone and their Nan are coming up with scopes now (look at Element Optics from FX Airguns/Matt Dubber), a lot of rebrands going on and you can see some of the switchgear is similar or even the same (look very closely at some of the Made in Japan Vortex, Ziess etc.).

No point having a top tier dogs bollocks scope if the company goes out of business in 5 years...
