New Trijicon Ten Mile HX LRH scopes

[LeddSlinger]

I have a Trijicon Accupower 5-50x56mm SFP ,I was told its the same thing as the Ten Mile. Came with lots of goodies including an owners manual . I also have a Athlon Cronus 4.5-29x56mm FFP. It came with a Box and a scope and that's it, had to down load the owners manual .Looking back I wish I bought the Trijicon Accupower 4.5-30x56mm FFP instead of the 5-50x56mm . The glass to my 63 year old corrected vision eyes,the color is slightly better with Athlon ,but other than that the glass is equal . Also have a Zeiss V6 and glass is significantly better than both. Brought out my Sightron S111 6-24x50mm and its glass wasn't far behind the Trijicon or the Athlon Cronus .

Yeah 5-50x is a HUGE ask for any scope to perform well. The 5-50 has good glass, but definitely not as good as the 4.5-30.

What's your budget ? I will tell you Sightron is cheaper, but has excellent glass

You won't touch a Schmidt, Kahles, or Swaro for $1800 with the same magnification levels of the Trijicon Tenmile scopes.

Zeiss V4 and V6 glass isn't as good and the mechanics (turrets, zero stop, illumination, etc) on the Trijicon is far superior to Zeiss.

My 4.5-30x56 Accupower and 4-24x50 Tenmile below

I await the double bind tests from a recognized optics lab verifying your claims.

I just recently compared a Zeiss V6 3-18x50 on a friends rifle to my Trijicon 4.5-30x56 and 4-24x50. We both agreed that the Trijicon glass was sharper and brighter when set on the same powers of the Zeiss V6. Wasn't even a comparison on the turrets because as soon as you touch the Trijicon anyone would know they are higher quality.

Ive also compared my 4.5-30x56 Accupower against a 5.5-22x56 NightForce NXS and new 4-32 NX8. Again, the Trijicon glass was sharper and brighter in low light. Turret mechanics were about equal in quality but the Trijicon has a much better and more user friendly zero stop and illumination

Please tell me where I can buy an S&B or Kahles for $1800. I've got money waiting to spend.

Well, I bought this "used" one (actually open box) on Amazon.

Last year I bought a Schmidt Klassik 4-16x50 in Ebay from Australia for $800 US. Everyone missed that the price was in AUS dollars.

Being alert is the key.

Sorry but a lpvo, sfp rail mount is not in the same universe with what we're discussing in this thread.
