Hey Guys,
I've searched (maybe not well enough),but is there such a scope (1.5 - 6 X 20 OR 24) available ?
 
Thanks,appreciated.I'll stick with my VX 3 and my Lynx.
 
Yep, there are a few--

in 30mm the Leupold in a VX-7 and the new VX-6
 
Schmidt&Bender now have a 1-8x20
 
the 1-6 swarovski scopes are nice, worth every penny imho, my boss is using this scope on his 375 h&h on a bear hunt on the 24th. Swarovski Z6i 1-6x24 BRT-I Reticle - Swarovski Rifle Scope 59135
it's also a nice scope on an ar15 style rifle for 3 gun. i've also used the trijicon and nightforce 1-4 scopes with success on large caliber rifles Nightforce Optics - NXS 1-4x24. the nightforce is heavy, but the most rugged scope by far

as for the schmidt and bender 1-8, they have been pushed back for about a year now, they are having trouble getting the reticle in the first focal plane and the red dot in the second focal plane to work well together. they also raised the price on the 1-8 and 3-20 scopes 600$ recently

most current ETA on the schmidt and bender offering is August, but like i said, it's been pushed back for a year so far
 
Don't know about USA, but the S+B 1-8x24s are listed and priced for next day shipping on UK sites - GBP1696.55p at York guns. Not cheap.

Preparing for the adventure of a lifetime. Looking forward to my 2026 Africa hunt with Van Wijk Safaris in South Africa.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
