Anyone seen this model? Seems like a low price but no one else shows it.

I cant find this large wheel focus shown anywhere else, the 12.5-50x56 is normally referred to being a 12-50x56. I also am wondering about the SFP option they show. Any thoughts? I cant find these on the S&B site either. Just wondering if this is the wrong image and a mistake on the 12.5-50 or something? Thanks PG

why not call Mike, who runs the business your link goes to. He's a good guy, and uses the good stuff in addition to selling the good stuff. I've seen him at the range more than a few times. :)

I did call the other day he was busy I guess I will try again. I just figured someone would have seen this or know about it. I tried to find out on the optics forum here but got nada. Thanks PG
 
I think the scope is for FT Airgun, if you enlarge the rendering you can see the name Field Target on the eye piece, as most FT scopes now come with the Big Parallax Wheel for Range finding and the IR Knob is on the right side instead of the left.


After a search I found the same scope listed else where as 12.5-50 and with no photos:

That's the Field Target model. It's optimized for shooting out to about 170m max. The large wheel is used for precise parallax. The FT guys use parallax to range-find, and then adjust their hold-over accordingly.

You'll probably want the regular 12-50 S&B. It's a spectacular scope, but I think it may be Second Focal Plane only.
