Pecar scopes
I have read that Pecars are an excellent scope . Any comments on how they compare with a Leupold VariX 111 ?
Also do they have decent eye relief ?
Had another European scope (Meopta) on my 7mm Magnum but found the eye relief too short .
Want something with a long tube (Pecar 4 - 10 x 45 looks to have that) and decent eye relief .


The hunting imperative was part of every man's soul; some denied or suppressed it, others diverted it into less blatantly violent avenues of expression, wielding clubs on the golf course or racquets on the court, substituting a little white ball for the prey of flesh and blood.

Bushchook, pecar scopes in the 1980's was the number one scope in this country for pro roo shooters. most gave them a pretty tough time and still loved them. The problem is they stopped importing them in to Australia for a number of years, but i think they are again available in new models , yet I am not sure if the quality is like it used to be. You need to talk to someone who has a currant model.

DBB ,
Saw a recent model advertised in Australian Shooter for $875 . Around $1500 new . Unfortunately it's gone .
Might go with a Zeiss Conquest or another Leupold VX 111 .
