After asking a number of top shots about rets they would like to see in the kahles scope I have submitted two a fine duplex and the other a rangefinder ret based around one I had designed for a weaver t36.

As I hear about further developments I will update this thread.

They made it for Benchrest and Field Target but the first reticles are for BR

Good video, so it is a true 5* mag scope.

Forgot to add release date is spring, no defined date, it will be available with the standard two rets as shown in literature.

Development of the rets I have supplied is beginning and will be available when everyone is happy.

There is a request to get the scope shown at shot show to the shooting show, this is a prototype scope so will be refined further prior to release.

The only major gripe i can see is they dont make gun boxes deep enough, so wheel would need to be easily removable and locate every time. Also without cutouts around the circumference.
I will reserve judgement on the arrangement until i have tried.

Lets hope its as good as other Kahles scopes i used to sell.

I agree Jon, am sure if there is an issue we can find an engineer too come up with a solution.

Am sure though they will be built to exacting standards, optics wise it should be top notch and quality maintained

Matt,

how do you rate the optics compared to what you are using, or have used in the past ?

Jon, have you had a peek through yet ? First impressions ?

NB: See what Robbie says -
