Sten Ch Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 (edited) "its the first time had some decent glass on a rifle everything else is junk now" Yes, there is a world of difference between scopes like Schmidt & Bender, Zeiss, Kahle or Swarowski on one hand and American and Asian scopes on the other, especially when light is low. The second group's only quality is the price... Edited March 1, 2008 by Sten Ch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
