Compact photo visual lens barrel
A very compact photo visual lens barrel equipped with a fluorite lens.
In combination with the high-resolution HR series eyepiece, it demonstrates high visual performance despite its small aperture and short focus. Especially when observing the moon and planets, you can get a higher-grade powerful image.
It can also be used as a high-performance astro camera by using a dedicated flattener lens and reducer lens (sold separately) together. It creates a sharp image over the entire field of a full-frame SLR camera.
Great service great advice awesome guys.
First up - this case is not cheap - but worth every penny if you have a rifle you wish to keep well-protected...
A big, well-padded case with a super-soft internal microfibre to keep the rifle and gear scratch-free, this carry case has an ingenious system of movable velcro straps so you can customise how the rifle sits in the case, along with any accessories to be stored in there with it.
Additionally two large front zippable pockets are excellent for keeping spare parts and accessories in, and the main zips can have a padlock fed through their zip holes for added security.
This is a brilliant case and will keep everything absolutely in order including the scope on the rifle - and you also know its a good case when the store owner uses it himself... ;-) HIGHLY recommended.
Finally picked up - after a five-month PTA wait - my new Howa 1500 with the FDE MDT XRS chassis upgrade and a sweet new long range Nikko Sterling scope on as part of the deal. As always Aubrey and the folks at Magnum were top notch, helping me get the rifle sorted and offering me hints and tips on getting the best out of this new target shooting purchase, plus of course those essential new accessories to get the best out of the Howa. Can't recommend the team highly enough - they genuinely listen and offer the best advice from their years of experience...
Even the best 22LR rifles can be fickle about the ammunition they need to run at their best.
My Anschutz MS54 shoots really tight groups with this stuff. And it’s not expensive…
The guys were really helpful in sorting out a pistol for me and sending it to my closest shop up here in QLD. I would definitely recommend calling and having a chat or drop in if your local. Thanks again guys.
