    Posted: January/27/2010 at 16:25
I have a Kahles Helia CL 4x12x52 with the MultiZero system for sale. The scope was purchased from the Samplelist last October and has seen light use on a Sako 75 since then. It has some slight marks on the Windage turret cap but is otherwise in excellent condition. 

I am selling the scope for several reasons. First, I have decided it is simply to large for the style of hunting I want to do. I am probably selling the Sako and the firearm I am replacing it with will be much too light and fast handling to reasonably mount a scope with a 52mm objective bell and up to a 12x zoom. The second reason is that I have been having trouble with my eyes and can not seem to get the full benefits of such a fantastic scope. My eyes have a tendency to blur when I focus for extended periods of time and the high magnification of this scope appears to make it more noticeable. 

I realize that no one wants to purchase a product if the current owner is unhappy with it, but I can tell you honestly, I do not think it is the scope, rather my eyes that are the problem. However, should you purchase the scope and feel downright disappointed by it within the first week or so I will gladly refund you purchase minus shipping both ways. I doubt you will be disappointed in this as it is a fine precision optic and on the right rifle setup should perform up to its reputation.

I have the original box and papers as well as the multikey, which allows you to use the MultiZero system (a very cool system by the way and perfect if you plan on doing any fixed distance target shooting or loading multiple different brands/hand-loads for the rifle.) It also comes with the Kahles flip-up lens covers.

My asking price will be 700 dollars plus shipping (I'm guessing about 15 dollars should cover shipping and insurance.)

This scope is in great shape and has not been abused. It should make someone very happy, it is just not what I am in need of for my current hunting set-up.

SGT D, 

I am not sure if you will check this or not, but I attempted to reply to your PM and received error messages saying you could not receive any more messages??? Perhaps your inbox is full? anyhow, if you get this or fix your message problem please let me know.

Me too.  I sent a PM last month and figured it was sold when I didn't here from you.

Apologies, the scope has been sold for some time. I forgot to edit the title to reflect that it had been sold.
