Just bought the S+B 12-50-56 PM 11. ( Sport Reticle )
Will be trying it out this weekend, out to 1000m.
It looks impressive sitting in the box.
Will have a better idea on Monday.

Im not saying i know everything, but i know enough. Its better to keep quiet and let people think your a fool, than to open your mouth and prove it ! ! !
Good optics
I dont like the click adjustment, they are too close together and it's easy to turn two clicks and not one, but I guess that's the trade off you get with that much adjustment.
The sport dot works well enough on 40x plus magnification, but at 30x it will cover a F class V bull at 1000 yards, I have just sent mine back to have the sport Fine ret installed ( not cheap )
All in all it's a very good scope and only £100 more expensive than the NF 12x42, having said that if the NF had better optics it would be my first choice.

God has a hard on for green rifles
Just come back from a very good days shooting.
12-50-56 PM 11 ..... Is the dogs Boll **ks.
The parallax is the best I have seen.
The click adjustment is fine. They are close together but "who cares" If you’re not sure how many turns you have dialled .... Just look at the knob.
The marking's are clear, precise and easy to read, even in poor light, rain, mist and fog. As i had, all bloody day !
Go for the fine reticle though.
I could not find fault with it.
