JSRamsbottom Scopes - what's the difference?

[Portzy]

Funnily enough I bought the same scope when I ordered the JSR/Leapers. I'm a novice so I'm so glad you've reviewed it. I was pretty blown away by it to be honest. I only got it because of a slightly tangential recommendation of its fine mildot reticle.

I bought it as a cheap option for a 2nd gun, but it's too good so it's going on the main gun, and I'm gonna get the Sabre 4x32 for the 2nd.

The JSR/Leapers is lovely and seems excellent value-for-money, and massive thanks to bighit for the link on how to reparrellaxing, but it sounds like something I'd f-up.

If Sabre produce a 3or4-12x40 version and JSR sell it at a price in line with the 2-7x32 I'll be desperate to snap one up.

Which Leapers did you get, this one?

That's the one. Seems very good, and if I was more experienced, I'd reset it from 100 to 30, and keep it. The 30/30 reticle looks nice, and I can see how it could be pretty straight forward to hold up/down, but the sabre's Ap appeals to me as a novice.

You might be surprised when you take it out and look at a few things at say 25 to 30 yds, especially on the lower mags of 4, 5, or 6. I was looking through a Hawke Vantage 3-9 this afternoon at my local range which was parallaxed at 100 yds and at 20 yds on x8 mag it was very nearly in full focus, course you had to get your eye alignment spot on every time but I sometimes think that we overlook non AO scopes, at least I used to 'till lately.
