: Leapers scopes (questions)
: October 06, 2006, 05:07:51 PM
I got a look at the leapers 3-12 sidewheel focus scope today. I had a leapers 3-9 at one time too. Both have short eye reliefs on them. The new 8-32 is supposed to have a 3.5" eye relief. Anyone here own a leapers that has a decent eye relief??  Also, does anyone own the 8-32 sidewheel scope. I have a member of the airgun club here that wants one, but would like some input first. Thanks.

Was that 3-12 the mini or the full size?  The full size has a little better eye relief, and 1/8" clicks.  Weights about the same, but it's about 1/3 longer.  I'd rate it as decent for eye relief, at least at the lower powers.  Their web site is Leapers.com, the specs on the site include eye relief.  Haven't tried the 8-32.
