[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 1657341, member: 22069"] I have an older Artemis 2000 1.5-6x42 with the 4A reticle. It has a steel tube, excellent glass, FFP, and is built like a tank. It is the best low light performer of any scope I have ever owned. Its only weakness is that the eye relief is a bit short, around 3". That said, I wish they still offered this scope for sale. I would own another one. [ATTACH=full]138447[/ATTACH] In general, I have a very high opinion of Meopta optics. They are high quality and offer excellent value. My frustration with Meopta is that they don't seem to understand what features are needed/desired by American shooters and hunters. I believe this is what has held Meopta back from being a major player in the North American market. If they made scopes with features better matched to the kind of shooting I do, I would own more Meopta scopes. I also own two first gen Zeiss Conquest scopes. For my money, I got excellent glass, reticles that I liked, side focus, and external turrets. The only drawback was 1" tubes with limited internal adjustment. The current Sig Sauer line of scopes offer a lot of attractive features, but they really need better reticle offerings. IMO, with a little homework, Meopta could beat them both in quality, features, and price. [/QUOTE]
