AllenBoselyNickel quality ?
What is the quality level of Gerhardt's Nickel Magnum 1.5-6x30?
Is it in the same league as Swarovski,Schmidt & Bender and Ziess? Especially as far as glass and preciscion of manufacture.
Or good but not in the category as the top three Euro scopes?

astiI have only used one Gerhardt scope. I couldnt tell any difference to the Zeiss i own.
If I would grade them it would be like this: Zeiss and Swaro=10 SuB and gerhard at least 9...

ozhunterI have had a lot of problems with internal mold {yellow colour inside}both Swarovski Bino's and scopes so I now stay clear of them. I love the S&B's and Zeiss but I am also keen to hear about the nickel in 1.1-4, 1.5-6, 1.5-6X33MAG and 2.5-10X48.

GerryAllen,
Nickel scopes rank right up there along with all the great & good, Zeiss, S&B & Swaro.
IMPO they are outstanding and (many) years ago one of the German hunting press magazines did a scope comparison and a Nickel scope was the winner!
