Schmidt & Bender PMII 6x42 P3 #832-811-862-73-94 Special Release $1999.99

I am starting a new thread as I have gotten a couple of updates from S&B on this scope.
Both Windage and Elevation Knobs will be exposed as opposed to their original info that the Windage would be capped.
I was asked the Bell Length and that is 4.33"

We expect the 1st shipment the beginning of June at at the moment we do still have a few scopes that are not spoken for so if you'd like one from that 1st delivery please give us a call to place an order.

Schmidt & Bender Police Marksman II 6x42 Fixed Power Riflescope is simple and practical. This Schmidt and Bender fixed power riflescope allows you to hunt with the world's finest optics at a reasonable price. Utter simplicity, ruggedness, reliability and it is streamlined as well as efficient. Its 42mm objective lens providing some of the highest light transmission levels ever achieved, yet presenting a low profile. This Schmidt & Bender Riflescope is built upon the smaller 30mm tube, allowing a wider choice of rings and mounting options. The fixed 6x magnification is designed for precise shooting at long ranges, yet still offers a wide field of view.

I think it is a fair statement that "this will be the finest fixed 6x42 scope available on the market".

What does single turn turrents mean?

Does first focal plane matter on a fixed scope?

Leaky:

Single turn = only one turn of the turret to reach max adjustments.
They also have a double turn = two turns

It helps to know in the dark... I have a Leupold 16x40 with 140MOA up.. Thats like 8+ revolutions. Basically useless in the dark or dusk.


Focal plane : most likely a hang over from the description of a variable scope.
A fixed magnification scope is obviously only First focal.

Thanks Northman. I've been buried this morning and just saw this post

Doug, thanks for the update, particularly on the ER and bell length.

S&B must have done their homework to drop the weight of that outfit to 16.79 oz.

I can't wait to get one in my hands. I hate not having it physically in front of me so I can "show it" to you guys through my eyes

OK, I ordered one - thanks Doug!

Thanks for the support. Have a great weekend

BOOM!!!

Hi Doug,

This spec sheet shows the eye relief is 80 mm. The first spec sheet said 90 mm. Which one is correct? Thanks for your help.

LJB

They originally told me 90mm, when i received the update the other day stating that both turrets would be exposed they updated it to 80mm.
I questioned them about it but have not heard anything back as of now.

That is a significant difference in the eye relief.

3.15"?

80mm ER is paltry. Even 90mm is lean on this side of the pond.

Who specified this scope’s build details? I thought this was supposed to be a special run in response to the numerous threads on this forum and others seeking a über quality 6x hunting scope.

It sounds like S&B is deciding what they want to build. Is it still black or did they change it to FDE?

Like I previously mentioned, its the exact same scope they had 20 years ago. Disclaimer, I don't know the exact date but I know it was a longgg time ago. I remember looking at them. I was hopeful with the mention of the capped windage and slightly longer eye relief that updates had been made. Nope. The only update is the price tag.

90mm has never bothered me on sporters, and order already in, though clarity on the ER would be nice. Will be on mtn rifle build... scope bite pics comin’ up!

It may be. I was under the belief (and still hope) that this will be made with latest glass, coatings, etc. I didn't expect the physical dimensions to change and I'm ok with that but don't want to be expecting one thing and receive another. The windage not being capped was strike one, but not a huge issue. The eye relief being shortened by .4" is strike two and it hurts. I'm somewhat skeptical on the "Weight: 476 g./16.79 ounces" now that the eye relief has been shortened....if the weight ends up at 610 grams/21+ oz's it's another strike.

I hope S&B will clarify things quickly. It's a bit costly to be misled on a project like this.

Is S&B acting like Trump?

The exposed windage turret was a showstopper for me. Doug graciously cancelled my order. Can't imagine using a scope with only 80 mm of eye relief.

You can’t imagine, because you’ve never used a S&B.
