lineshooter Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 (edited) Bob, I have their 30mm, 6.5-20x50 Viper model on a 308 I use for target shooting, it has the duplex reticule and I have found it to be a very capable scope, good, clear glass, plenty of adjustment, positive clicks on the turrets etc etc, I also have one of their spotting scopes which is very good too. I was told they are made in the Phillipines in the same factory as the Nikon scopes, how true that is I don`t know, but nothing suprises me these days. This one was brand new, listed at nearly £500 but I paid £250 so result, the latest scope the Razor HD looks very nice but way off my budget.

njc110381 Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 I've not used one of their scopes but I have a pair of Vortex Viper binoculars. The optics quality is up there with my S&B scope, very clear and bright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineshooter Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 Yeah, I would have prefered the tatget dot ret but hey at that price, beggars can`t be choosers Marchwood in Cannock I think are the importers, there`s a good test on youtube where the scope is immersed in water overnight then put in the freezer and it still still works after its thawed out. Good luck with you decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
