I would like a fixed power about 15x, no target turret, and minute hash marks. Any ideas?

Having looked over 1/2 dozen sites, using their and other search engines, I don't think a scope with your parameters exists.

Alan, I think you are right. Simplicity is hard to come by!

Looks like Weaver used to make a model KT15 about 5 years ago. Couple on ebay once in a while.

Have you looked at the swfa ss in 16 power it does have turrets but it might be close

Agreed, I was going to suggest the Super Sniper as well. Mine is 20 x

Gentlemwn, the scopes you mention have moa adjustments, but do not have moa hash marks in the reticle. I want moa hash marks inorder to relate to a moa drop chart without having to use the turrets. Interesting scopes, though. Thanks.

Well why not get a Zeiss Conquest with Z reticule? The hash marks may not be exactly MOA, but their website has the drop for a given caliber, bullet and velocity. Sorry I did not think of that earlier. Mine is a variable though.

Second focal plane variable scopes with any range finding reticle ONLY work at ONE power setting.
My IOR 4-28 ONLY works at 22 X for the adjustmants and hash marks to mean anything.
My Conquest 4.5-14 ONLY works at 13.4X for my 300 H&H load.
There is a reason all real sniper scopes are first focal plane as the power setting makes no difference in "milling".
No idea what your budget is, if big get a 4-16 Schmidt with the mil dot reticle. If cheap, find a mint 10x43 Unertl Vulture, send it to TK Lee and have him put some dots in it. They are both quality scopes not some chinese junk.

Check out Leupold's custom shop scope offerings.
Might be able to build their FXIII 12x w/ desired reticle. Not the 15x, but most likely close enough, just a thought.

Oh just a 1-20x50 with at least 50 mils of adjustment and 10 mil knobs, not to mention a nice reticle. (I like the GAP reticle)


Love shooting precision and long range. Big bores too!

Check out Horus vision.

They have one scope that is in MOA all of the rest are Mil.
