About this deal

Ive never owned such large bins before and I was pleasantly surprised when I used them on the stars,the extra 10mm diameter is really evident and they really brought out the orangeness of Arcturus .The colour fringing I notice in the daylight was not a problem as far as I could see,which makes me think they will be well suited for astronomy.

Don't scoff at those old 16 x 50 binoculars as some had excellent resolution even though the coatings were poor. The Japanese ones were very good and probably still work when some of the modern Chinese cheapies have long hit the dust. Several people, myself included, have for years been suggesting a copy of this "tall one", or the"fat one", but without the aspheric eyepieces. Has anyone seen the plans? Or did they go to KOMZ or the plant in Novosibirsk when CZ Jena was dismantled by the Russians? Bearing in mind my visual problems, focus and dioptre adjustments seem OK, closest focus about 30 feet (less with my glasses off!). Noticeable pincushion and defocussing off-axis, fringing acceptable. In WWII, the infantry went to a shorter K98 rifle, which launched the 154-gr flat based bullet at 2,805 fps, and the 197.5 grain boattail at 2,494 fps. Let's note here that commercial rifles continued to be built in .318 into the 1950s. FN produces bolt action 8x57s in the 1950s which were .318 bore, so be aware!! The same is true of some drillings and combination guns produced from 1905 to 1939.. still. .318 inch bores.

What about a handheld using the Fuji II 25 x 150 eyepieces and prisms(Porro II), in about 9 x 70 or 10 x 75 or 80?, with objectives with aberrations to balance those of the big, heavy prisms and the existing eyepieces? What would one pay for that? My goal was to use Speer's 200 grain bullet at 2,340fps the same as the WWII German military load. So giving good ballistic co-efficient and yet little meat damage. I don't think that a 150 grain or a 170 grain is the "right" weight for these rifles. Of the recommission news, Cameron Roach, executive producer of Waterloo Road and Founder of Rope Ladder Fiction, says: “We’re beyond thrilled with the triumphant return of Waterloo Road, and so thankful to the BBC for committing to the show so fully. We love that the show has the potential not only to be a crown jewel for BBC iPlayer, but also serve as a true beacon for training, and inspiring next generation talent. In addition to our open auditions and full-time production trainee placements for industry newcomers, our workshops across Greater Manchester this Summer for 14-16 year olds, in partnership with BBC Young Reporter, have truly demonstrated the infectious power of this show." I am told by an expert on the Mausers and German snipers that there were a significant number of 8x60 sporting rifles with telescopic sights around. They could shoot the 8x57mm ammunition. It is well worth getting any vintage binoculars professionally cleaned and serviced. You will notice the difference in performance. References

Drill holes do not need to be cleaned during vertical installation (ceiling and floor). For floor fixings the hole must be drilled 3x drill hole diameter deeper. The 7x50 binocular was more suited to Naval operations. This is because lower magnification binoculars are more suitable for use on ships in rough weather. Carl Zeiss, Ernst Leitz, Swarovski and Voightlander. Up to 1940 they carried the maker's name and as well as the word 'Dienstglas'which meansSince this chamber reaming operation is also possible for earlier I-bore rifles, 8x60mm chambered rifles (without the S or any other further additions) also exist. 8x60mm rifles sport the earlier tighter 8.07 mm (.318 in) I-bore as found in the 8x57mm I. The 8x60mm S is very popular in European countries like France where the possession of rifles in their original military caliber is tightly regulated: It allows French licensed gun owners to possess rifles based on the Mauser Gewehr 98 system under the less constraining "hunting rifle" category.

them to make the binoculars easier to use with his trademark goggles? U-boat and Kriegsmarine binoculars Firstly, the fully coated or fully multicoated description was actually in the flesh a single coat on the front and a single coat on the rear eyepiece surface. . All other surfaces were completely uncoated.Particularly after Germany invaded Russia in 1941 the Wehrmacht needed binoculars that could withstand cold temperatures. A number of markings exist that indicate although some people don't like the Jenoptem because of the poor edge performance which I think is due mainly to a curved field, they are valued because they're well built and fully repairable. These are the most practical size for modern applications such as bird watching or spectator sport. They give you powerful magnification and bright lenses. I have been making these Cases now for over 10 years, without any chambering problems at all. My commercial outlet has also distributed over 1,000 Krop/Guedes cases over a similar period without any complaints.

For less than what a good original 8 x 60 will fetch, one could have at least two Busch design 45 deg inclination 10 x 80 multicoated ( and not just "broadband" single layer MgF2). What is more, they could be lightened considerably by substitution of Delrin and aluminum for the steel in some parts of the 45 deg inclination 10 x 80, as well as removal of the heavy filters and filter mechanism, I have done so, and they become hand-holdable. There were .30-06 Springfields captured, and lots of .30-06 ammunition. The 8x60S could be made easily from .30-06 brass. The 8x60S could launch the 177-gr AP boattail at 2,800 fps, as well as the 198-gr bullet at 2,650 fps both shooting about the same trajectories, and within the adjustments of the scopes, to beyond 1,000 yards. It was unbelievably bad, in fact I can't believe anyone could make such a bad binocular even if they were trying very hard. However, measuring the exit pupil you might find that it is less than 7.5 mm even if the clear aperture is actually 60 mm. This would be because of internal restrictions such as the prism being too small. It might even have the old-fashioned squared off exit-pupils.There is no way to give a short answer to anything about the history of the 8x57 flavors, nor the 8x60. I will give some short answers and can expound on points later. Cases were formed with RCBS Kropatshcek dies (no trimming required) and lathe turned (bevel) on an Emcomat-3 Miniature lathe ( and lately, on a Hercus ARL (similar to a Southbend). The second reason is a continued fascination for items from the Second World War and from the Third Reich in particular. Models It is expensive to have binoculars serviced. These German binoculars can be particularly difficult to repair. Binoculars with collimation issues (double vision), These are the classic night vision binoculars preferred by sailors. However, this spec was also used by the Wehrmacht (Army) and Luftwaffe (Air Force) as well
