I'm looming at a Schmidt summit 2.5-10x40. Does anyone have one of these on a CZ 550 375 length action? Trying to figure out if it will fit before I drop the cash on the scope. Also any first hand experience with this scope would be great. Anybody run one of these?
 
It should fit no problem. Tube is quite long. I love my S&B's but really??? I'm disappointed in mine. Have it on a M70 SG 30-06. It works but acts more like a Leupold than a S&B. You make an adjustment and it has to shoot in-then reticle is stable. Never had this in the 30mm S&B's. Eye relief is very good though better than the 30mm models, also you get this donut in the eyepiece and not so forgiving. I do recommend S&B but not this model.

This was not one of their finer products. Just my opinion so make of it what you will.
 
The Schmidt Bender Zenith 3-12 fits, with not a lot to spare but man what glass. I have never seen the summit . You should.be able to compare the dimensions of the two on their website.
 
Thanks guys. I ended up passing on this scope because it only had 25 min internal elevation.

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
