Looking for one of the above. Also after spare turret dials/inserts.

MUST be the standard model not the Wide-View or similar.

I bet Tamony's got one....
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

I have one of these scopes in green ( well mostly green the anodizing on the main tube has gone a golden color over the years).
The range finder is with practice very quick to use and is ideal for fig 11 & 12's. Plenty of magnification for targets up to 600 yds.

Is it for sale?
Sounds like one of the early ones, as they were later just a plain black (as they found that the green anodising changed colour after a while, as yours has done)
