Kahles K 1-6x24 Illum. SI1 Riflescope 10517

This is the first item I ever purchased from EuroOptic- K16i in the SI1 reticle. It took me a few months to learn the reticle with .308/7.62, but super easy to master. The big illuminated circle is 36" at 1x, and 18" at 6x. 1 MOA dot. The end cost of this scope, I believe, is about half of what its quality demonstrates. If you are cliched "on the fence" about purchasing this optic 1) I think you should find one to try out and 2) reviews of this level of quality optic are really difficult to write. If you know, you know is all I can say about the Kahles line of illuminated reticles. I have this scope on a POF 308 in Seekins ring mounts at about 1.75" over bore. I would sell the rifle before I would sell this scope and I would sell my favorite bird dog before I sold that rifle, so... I personally think 200 yd is the max range for any range paper "grouping" (or whatever its called) with a 6x scope, but I can hit 8" steel plates out to 300 yards & get sort-of bored. That's nothing at all to brag about, but the point is I can see the targets perfectly in any shooting position from about 18 ft out to 300 yards. It will probably range out a lot further. That being said, the triangle vertical hash marks proved to be phenomenal when going between super & sub-sonic suppressed/silenced. 308 drops a LOT subsonic compared to super and the 5 MOA references are perfect. No changing my dope between the two loads. I am buying another one- I personally like what the limit of 1-6x gives versus the newer 1-8x.

THE top low mag variable. Kahles K 1-6x24 SI1 is all about fundamental capability w its startlingly bright glass, clear, uncluttered, precise reticle and huge optical picture, 1x about 130ft at 100yds (that's giant). Dials up to Aimpoint red dot bright levels. Glass quality is beyond the price, like PM II. It's top glass. Clear enough to work for 600 yard prone. Light and rugged.
