Hi guys,

Want to show you something most of you had not the chance to put your eyes on yet. I'm not a fan of such heavy and big scope. I ain't used it for hunting but had the chance to fiddle a bit with last week.
Was made by Leica to compete with Swarovski Z6. It's a x6,5 zoom scope. The race is not over, Zeiss work for a x8 zoom to be presented soon...Leupold and S&B have one already and a VX6 with the Oregon based company.
Just for the pleasure of the eyes. I keep my 2,5-8x36s and my 1,5-6x42s for hunting. Enjoy.
Have good afternoon and good sunday

Don�t forget Premier.

Not so good i think (the S&B) problem on the lowest setting (optic aberration on CC) but don't forget also Premier would be nothing without S&B staff and some tubes and glasses....
Is this scope actually on the market/going to end up on the market? I thought Swarovski were trying to block them? Certainly looks like an impressive scope, on a beautiful rifle. What do you think of the Helix?

Congratulations on beating the English in the Rugby World Cup.

Hi dhg,

This one is a pre serie model for testing with gun makers. Production is launched. I don't know if they get agreement with Swarovski but i think they found one.
I don't know how it will be received in public and don't think they will be mass produced as the Z6 (to this day around 100000 sold!)
It seem to me that's a race that does'nt bring to much for customers except owning the "biggest and most expensive". Maybe for the guy with one rifle one scope who hunt everything with it...I prefer to specialise and adapt scope and rifle to the hunt. Sometimes i even ain't no scope...

Thank you for your congratulations for France victory. Wales were very impressive too and i'm glad they won because they were not favorite.
