That's the word on the street! Rumor has it a new rimfire from Sako, a rimfire offered from Tikka along with updates on the T3! It should be interesting and of course then waiting to see which products Beretta is going to bring here!

Didn't Swaro and Zeiss do that once already to the tune of ~$3k? An 8x32 EL LRF would be sweet! I can walk on water.......................but I do stagger a bit on alcohol.

Leica owns the patent for that. Perger Porro. I don't think they would want to do that. IMO the perger porro is a step backwards, it has more green tint, and is fuzzier around the edges.

To compete with offerings from Zeiss and S&B.

Zeiss has the Victory V8 series, 1-8x30, 1.8-14x50. Not your everyday scope. A very small market but they need to keep up with the others.
