Does any body change reticles on these scopes. Mine has TDS-4 and I want fine crosshairs. Any help would be appreciated.

Give SONA at 800-426-3089. I believe the fine cross hair reticle your asking about is called PLEX.

Power can not be boosted and they offer a plex and a fine in the 6-24.  Might have to go back to Austria for the swap.

Going to try to find a dealer that will trade with me for a Nightforce 12x42.
Thanks

I just had a reticle change on my swarovski, plex to 4a. It took just just over two weeks from the time it left my home (California) to SONA (Rhode Island, USA) and back.

Mike, was this in your Z6?

Yes.

When rob221 says 6x24, I think he means 6x24-50 PH/PV. Good point, not sure if it would be the same process or different. The PH/PV is FFP and the Z6 is SFP. I can call SONA tomorrow and update.

OK, Chris is on the money!!

These products listed below all go back to Austria for now and the process time is 6 to 8 weeks. This may change sometime in the near future with SONA USA doing the repairs.

rifle scopes:
6-24
4-16
all illumination rifle scopes
spotting scopes
older traditional binos

For the 6-24x50 reticle there are two duplex ret's available, plex & fine plex. If you choose fine plex you may also need to replace your torrents with Swaro high target style. The person who can answer this at SONA is out this week and will be back next Tuesday. You have the number for SONA on this thread.

Good Luck
