Robert_White,
they don't have an affordable 1x6 Carbine scope.
Isn't a 6mm objective kind of small?
1x6x24
http://swfa.com/SWFA-SS-HD-1-6x24-Tactical-30mm-Riflescope-P53845.aspxIt is one grand. Ouch.
In my mind this niche is wide open. I know nothing of optics manufacturing but why are good 1x4's half that price?
If somebody came out with an affordable rugged 1x6x24 with forgiving eyebox and various reticle options. And cranky knobs that repeat like SWFA, and did I mention forgiving eye-box? I would be all over that. And something long enough to help with mounting on a Rem-700 long action etc. That would be perfection. 30-Mm tube or better. YOu bet.
