Bresser Binoculars 8 x 60

Product Information

Since this chamber reaming operation is also possible for earlier I-bore rifles, 8x60mm chambered rifles (without the S or any other further additions) also exist. 8x60mm rifles sport the earlier tighter 8.07 mm (.318 in) I-bore as found in the 8x57mm I. Drill holes do not need to be cleaned during vertical installation (ceiling and floor). For floor fixings the hole must be drilled 3x drill hole diameter deeper. I am told by an expert on the Mausers and German snipers that there were a significant number of 8x60 sporting rifles with telescopic sights around. They could shoot the 8x57mm ammunition. One reason this is credible, is that from my own experience, I have found several of these older rifles with the claw mounts to have the bases installed so precisely, that scopes built by one maker would swap with those installed by another gunsmith, years apart. So fitting a new scope would be quite easy.

Handloaders can also produce this round, by altering a .30-06 Springfield case and using a standard 8 mm bullet. Prvi Partizan is a major supplier of brass components for European 8x60mm S Handloaders. x 60 is a useful combination of low magnification and aperture. At that price they might be worth a punt. I also had a pair of the Lidl Bresser 10 x 50's and they are not at all bad (compared to most of the dire cheapies in circulation). market from 1945 to 1950. I don't have any evidence for this other than the number of pairs advertised in US magazines just after the end of the War and the desire of the Carl Zeiss, Ernst Leitz, Swarovski and Voightlander. Up to 1940 they carried the maker's name and as well as the word 'Dienstglas'which means When it comes to Lidi binocular, you should try them in store before you buy. When I bought my 10x50 in Lidi, I tried three and only one of them is acceptable. The other two is out of collimation.

These are the most practical size for modern applications such as bird watching or spectator sport. They give you powerful magnification and bright lenses. These are the classic night vision binoculars preferred by sailors. However, this spec was also used by the Wehrmacht (Army) and Luftwaffe (Air Force) as well The Bresser "10x50" that I tested (laser rig -- but the method I suggested above gives less than 1% difference) was a 10x42. Which is slightly better than my Chinese "marine" version of a 10x50, which is only a 10x41. The ubiquitous "15x70"s are 15x62. There are two reasons for this. The first is a practical one. German-made binoculars were of outstanding quality. They However, measuring the exit pupil you might find that it is less than 7.5 mm even if the clear aperture is actually 60 mm. This would be because of internal restrictions such as the prism being too small. It might even have the old-fashioned squared off exit-pupils.

Filming on the two newly-commissioned 8x60’ series will begin in Greater Manchester this autumn, and further details will be announced in due course. It is expensive to have binoculars serviced. These German binoculars can be particularly difficult to repair. Binoculars with collimation issues (double vision), A disadvantage of the Porro II is that for a given clear aperture of the prisms, the axial displacement is smaller than is the case for the Porro I. This imposes a smaller limit on objective aperture. Mechanically it was completely wobbly, nothing fitted properly, the hinge could tilt about 20° up or down.
