Thanks for the info, good read. Had a chat with the South African division of Leica, and was told that they would be bringing new magnifications out within the next year. But wouldn't specify what.

I heard that rumor, but could not get Leica to confirm it.

Very nice ILya, thanks for all the time and effort you spend sharing your expertise.  You make buying scopes a whole lot easier.  Excellent
