scope help and or ideas
« on: December 26, 2009, 07:37:02 PM »
  i am looking for a scope      1x6 power or abouts,  42 mm obj and up,  4 to 5 in eye relief,      4A   german reticle,    FOV @ 100  60 plus feet at lowest magnification, and preferably 30mm main tube     i have a tasco titan 1x6x42mm with a 4a that is perfect BUT i need a several more and i have looked for 2 years.   was looking at Trijicon 1x4 or 1.25x4 and i
 like the bindon concept.    I am looking for ideas to look at and i want decent glass but @ 679 the accupoint is a tad  expensive

       and low light  performance is important soooo i wanted to bounce ideas off all of you guys here!

mueller makes a nice 4a reticle glass     but    they need to come out with one in 1x4 or1.5x 4.5 or 6   with a 4.25 to 5 in eye relief    i would even take a an illum reticle model   ( i doubt i would even use it that way)

Wish I could help you more, I don't really have any experience with Trijicon other than their ACOG/RCO.

I hate to say it, but generally with very few exceptions you get what you pay for with glass.

Hope somebody with more experience can chime in for you.

Good luck.

Look at Meopta 1.5-6x42 and Nikon Monarch Gold 1.5-6x42 as well as the Nikon Monarch Dangerous game scopes.  Go out to ebay and look at what they are going for there.  I saw a Meopta go for $350 and I think there is a Monarch Gold out there right now sitting at about $350.  Both of these are $600 plus scopes.  I have also seen used Trijicons go for around $400 maybe even $350 on ebay.
