Optika 6 line--anyone got their hands on one yet?

[new2mud]

I've been following the release of this line, but haven't managed to find anyone that's spent some time behind the glass. Looks to be a feature-rich offering at quite a competitive price.

Anyone have first-hand experience, as well as other optics they would pit the glass against?

Search here, there is a thorough review. My dad just picked one up for his 300 Weatherby. He hasn’t even mounted it yet.

There will be an Optika 5 line this summer too.

Found Formidilosus' very comprehensive review of the 3-18. Tracking seems to hold up to some bumping around, and has been robust for him:

Thanks for sharing the process. Keep preaching about reticles. I’ve concluded that any windage reference above 4 mil is probably useless to me. I’d rather have a thick reference bar for the dark timber, lowlight scenario. If I need >4 mil of windage for a one time shot, the situation likely...

Anyone have experience with the 4.5-27? (No donut reticle, which was his biggest complaint w/ the particular 3-18 that he has)

Would it be wrong to assume that the Optika5 will be less money but the same glass?

There was something from @gr8fuldoug on these, but that is what I interpreted. These were slightly less and 5x zoom range vs 6x.

Also 1" tubes for the Optika 5's and capped turrets unlike half of the Optika 6's. Looks like a nice dedicated hunting scope.

Just saw the Shot Show press release. Looking forward to them being available.

I bought the 1-6x24 illuminated for my AR. Super clear, tracks well, really like it. Probably the nicest scope I’ve had. Ordered a Meostar 1 for my bolt gun. Looking forward to getting that

Well—now you’re just jumping to the really good stuff.
