    Question Meopta Artemis 2000 6x42 - reparallax for air rifles ?

    As above - I have one on the way which was going onto a powder burner (still might) but the thought occurred to reparallax it and pop it onto a FAC Rapid instead.

    Has anyone tried reparallaxing one of these ?

    Thanks for looking

    Re parallax

    Hi , yes I have done 2 of these about 7 years ago and both were one of the hardest scope's that I have re-parallaxed, I had to heat them and use an oil filter grip to turn and break seal but was well worth doing greats scope's.

    One of the finest hunting optics on the market for my money. They do suffer parallax issues however but as said above, they're well worth a bit of effort

    In fact, if you don't get on with it and it has the 4a or 4b reticle, drop me a line.

    I remember someone doing one of these, they couldnt go to the toilet for a week after.
    I think his stonks went back to the normal colour after a month.
    Not sure that the depth of field was stunning, but the clarity was.

    Bowket uses one for all of his testing after a Blueprint Tune that apparently he had factory parallaxed to fifty yards. Here is a picture of it from his facebook fanpage.

    Just checked and you have to click the "previous" arrow to see the scope. He swears by them and has used his for years. I would love one myself.
