Well. Thank you everyone for your input. I ordered an 8X56 S&B Klassik from optics-trade! Only spent a touch over half often budget so now I need to start looking at binoculars. I’ve got a $550 head start on saving up for those. Got the scope for $750 with shipping.
Optics trade said it will ship in “One month or longer”. Does anyone have any experience on how long that might actually be?
I’m still probably 6 to 8 weeks from having my rifle build finished. So no real hurry.
A previous order for a 6x42 with them was almost exactly what the quoted time frame was until it was shipped. I don't remember what the time quote said but I do remember that it was right on time. Shipping took a little while but it was trackable. Really it was a painless order since I wasn't in a rush.
