[QUOTE="hawlejr, post: 2805370, member: 86290"] Minox recently re-did their reticle on the 5-25x56 LR I have 2 of them, and they are very very good. I like the Christmas tree reticle in Mildot format, 34mm tube, 56 mm objective. Compares favorably to my Nightforce NXS. I think they have the quality of the Kahles and S&B but about $1000 less here in the States. It's not even their top of the line, but it's **** close in performance. It's been reviewed by folks on the internet....just google. I did have some trouble with Minox, but their customer service came through for me. Another great brand is Valdada. Zeiss Schott) glass, terriffic scopes (especially if you don't mind a few extra ounces). Could be the best in the world. Of course, if you were here in the States, I'd recommend either Nightforce or the upscale Leupolds as, if anything goes wrong, it's a lot easier to just return and get a new scope. With scopes like you're talking about costing more than the rifle, and a 400 m max distance, (unless you're shooting red squirrels), you could save yourself a lot of money and weight with a Bushnell 3-9X !! :) [/QUOTE]
