Kalinka scopes from Russia
« on: February 06, 2005, 08:23:21 AM »
Was looking at this site and their scopes. They have fixed power scopes and all seem to run around the hundred dollar mark.  Any opinions on this line??  Thanks.

I have a 4x32 VOMZ Pilad - for the money excellent scope. Bulletproof - very  well put together in a old school kind of way. Optically very very good for the money and if you like German type reticles (which i do) their version makes a great hunting reticle.  Im sure the odd clunker comes out of the factory but for a $100.00 scope thats a bit different - fully worth it.

PS Im in New Zealand and the scope was here in well under a week so their delivery/customer service is good.

I love their reticles. Thats the main draw for them, to me that is.
I wish more manufactures would offer different reticles like these. I tire of "Plex" reticles. While definately effective, it gets boreing.
I like diversity, and don't like all my rifles to have the same scope with the same reticle.
