bicykillgaz Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 Hi gents, I've been looking for a local gunsmith to price up two barrel chops and on one of the sites have come across these scopes, I've never heard of them before or heard anyone suggest them on here when people ask suggestions for top end scopes. Judging by the prices though they should be top notch and are British so why doesn't anyone use them on here? Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bicykillgaz Posted July 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 british? made in china sold by british I must of misread their site, seem a bit steep for Chinese scopes and apparently popular in f-class competitions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bicykillgaz Posted July 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 a mate has one,cost well over 2k, just not for me The price was enough to put me off but was more curious why they seem a top end scope but I've never heard them mentioned on here when people are looking for longrange scopes.

bicykillgaz Posted July 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 I'm not looking for a scope but will bare vortex in mind next time I do need one. Just bought a Nikon 4.5-14x40sf off another member to stick on my rimfire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.007 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Tested vortex out on field with snipercam, seems to have similar coatings on the lens as the Leopold scopes, not good at night☹ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
