Thanks for the intel, RC!
I've had nothing but great experiences with my Kahles scopes. They are excellent optically, fully on par with just about any of the other high end brands, and I've never had a single problem. Even if they never find a new US importer, I still wouldn't hesitate to buy another one, especially now, with current pricing being so good. Kahles suffered from a name recognition problem here, not being as well-established as Swaro and Zeiss in the States, and the average hunter rarely saw any advertising for them or product on store shelves. That's a shame, as they make as good an optic as anyone.

Thanks for the update. I now have much more confidence in the Kahles I just bought and about to mount.

I have looked through (not owned) them, and they had great optics. I haven't heard many complaints from durability issues on here from them either. Unless it's going on a true beat-around gun, I wouldn't let the service sway my decision much.

I like the multizero. I have the 3-10 CL MZ and it is awsome. If I needed another scope there would be no hesitation of getting one off the samplelist. If I can ever find a Kahles 2-7CL MZ I will get it.

Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.
Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow Now the rules have changed again. |

If you plan on using your turrets to adjust for shooting @ different ranges (my preference) as opposed to a holdover method, and it's within your budget I'd jump all over one if I were you.

Holy cow! DO NOT let the shipping costs deter you from getting a fine piece of equipment like that. Clean out your piggy bank, look under the cushion on your couch and dig through the console of your vehicle......please!
Buy that scope. Be excited to get it. Take pictures and post them as soon as you get it mounted. Lastly, thank anyone who talked you into getting a piece of glass like that.

It cost me 14.95 to ship one halfway across the U.S., including insurance about three weeks ago. What kind of rifle is it going on? Talley makes some great ones that won't break the bank ($40 to $70 dollar range).
If you need a scope sooner than you can save the extra, then there are a lot of great choices for $775 that'll get you mounting hardware and shipping.

Then you can get good ones for $40 in the Talley Lightweight Aluminum series.
.257 WB mag is a good cartridge btw.
You can always get a really good scope for less money, have target turrets made for it by Kenton, or if it's a Leupold then they can install them on about any scope they make.
If you go with Kenton be sure to check their website because they don't make them for every scope out there.
If $775 is your absolute max then I would definitely go that route. In fact, I'm getting ready to do it again myself.
