When reviewing the specs of these scopes, you can only see a lot of similarities. Schmidt and Bender, and March certainly need no introduction as a top tier optic. I received the S&B 12-15X56 and March 5-55X56 from CGN member ‘blackburbot’ to compare. If you have any questions about the SD 1-4X CQB 20mm scope, let me know. An opportunity was offered to compare the SVSS to a couple of other top tier high mag scopes. There are some members whom owned or still have the 24mm LE model here, including Molon. Goliath reference) and while one might immediately gravitate towards the shorter scope there are some pros and cons which are discussed later on when combining high magnification erectors.

S&B 8x56 A7 fine £756 (A4F is £562 but I quite like the fine one) S&B 8x56 Illum £900. I own the standard S&B SD 1-4X 20mm model with CQB reticle model. The very first difference is immediately obvious in the image above, once you pull them from the package, the Schmidt is ginormous while the March is smaller than many 5-25 scopes today (hence the David vs. Swaro AV 6-18X50 BR £850 (never heard of AV range) Swaro 6-24X50 PLEX £795 (no box) New. The biggest difference apparently is the 4mm in the objective lense and the original Short Dot 1-4X 20mm is First focal plane vs the standard 2nd focal plane or standard reticle which does not change size when zooming in or out with magnification adjustments. However, the Zeinth hunting model 1.1x4 24mm is on the website.
KAHLES VS SCHMIDT BENDER SERIES
The 1 inch HELIA 3 Series consists of the riflescopes 3 3-9x42, HELIA 3 4-12x44i and HELIA 3 3-10x50i. The HELIA 1-5x24i is ideal for the driven hunt, the HELIA 2-10x50i is perfect for stalking and the HELIA 2.4-12x56i is the top for hide hunting. The LE 24mm tube is no longer listed on either the USA or DE (Germany) websites. The KAHLES HELIA riflescope series, especially developed for hunters, is highly appreciated. Ski I recall that sticky well but somehow my old, tired brain is still baffled, mind laying it out for me succinctly?
