Hello all. I bought an almost new 4.5X14 Vari X 111 a while back. Thought I got a deal on it until I got it home and realized that the Duplex reticle in it is huge. I really didn't notice it when I looked at it before I paid for it. Now I know that the seller knew it was too thick to use. Why anyone would put such a heavy reticle in a scope is beyond me.
So, what I need is some information on where/who to send it to to change the reticle to a fine duplex? I emailed Leupold and inquired about the cost to have the work done. Let's just say it was WAAAAYYYY out of my price range.
Does anyone here know where I can get this word done reasonably? I'm in the middle of building a rifle that I would like to put it on but the thick duplex covers up half a gallon milk just at 100 yards.
Any help would be appreciated.
Scott
