Reticle German 4a
RETICLE-GERMAN-4A_teaser-960x640.png

Go for a Classic European Style Reticle: heavy posts are easily seen against a dark target or in low light. Use it for general big-game, dangerous-game, or pig hunting.


Reticle Ballistic
RETICLE-BALLISITC_teaser-480x320.png

Perfect for quick hold-over determinations and distances beyond point blank range. Provides hold-off determinations for 10 and 20 mph crosswinds. Approximates the ballistics of modern center-fire cartridges. Suitable for mountains or open plains, big-game hunting, and varmint shooting.


Reticle Magnum Ballistic
RETICLE-MAGNUM-BALLISTIC_teaser-480x320.png

Provides quick hold-over range determinations for enhanced magnum ballistics. Gives you hold-off determinations for 10 and
20 mph crosswinds. Approximates the ballistic of modern flat
shooting magnum rifles. Suitable for mountains or open plains, big-game hunting, and varmint shooting at extended ranges.


Reticle Circle Plex
RETICLE-CIRCLE-PLEX_teaser-480x320.png

This reticle provides rapid target acquisition for quick shots in heavy cover. It’s equally at home on a rifle or shotgun. Use it for big-game, dangerous-game, pig hunting, turkey or action shooting sports.


Reticle LE-TAC
RETICLE-LE-TAC_teaser-960x640.png

Allows rapid target acquisition with quick visual ranging. It approximates the ballistics of 5.56 w/62 gr bullet. Excellent in combination with the Modern Sporting Rifle.
 Use it for action shooting sports or close-quarter environments.


Leica Equipment

Leica Sunshade
Effective reduction of stray light

SPORT-OPTICS-EQUIPMENT-SUNSHADE-CROSS-CATEGORY-TEASER_teaser-480x320.png


Rugged and reliable

The optional all-metal sunshade ensures a brilliant image even in intense sunlight. A second sunshade can be affixed via a second screw thread to increase its effectiveness in reducing stray light. The interior thread (1.93 in x 0.03 in/49 mm x 0.75 mm) can be used to attach special filters. Measuring 1.97 in/50 mm in length, the sunshade is anodised aluminium.
 
The ER 5 scopes are now discontinued. Can the "closed secret" of their place of manufacture be revealed? I had heard that they were made in the USA briefly, then made by Leica in Portugal due to slow fabrication in the USA.

Did Zeiss USA make these?
