I feel the love here!

Posted By John Kuhl

I had a classic 12" LX200 that I used for years and years without a single problem. However after one look through my friends new 12.5" Starmaster. Well lets just say, that was the last time I used that scope. It was sold soon after.

Should I sell my AP Traveler and buy a SV 105" Apo?

Posted By John Kuhl
You have got to be kidding? You can always get a 4" scope, but good luck getting another Traveler. I would never think about it, much less do it.

Let's face it, mass production or excellence, your choice!

Posted By John Kuhl
Floyd you are a 100% right. I have to laugh when someone wants to know if there cheap, mass produced scope is going to be as good as a quality hand built scope.

Who Already has Their Dream Scope?

Posted By John Kuhl

I am lucky enough to have two dream scopes. One is
a 20" Starmaster, the other is a 160 AP on a 900 mount.
However the scope I use more than all the other scopes I
own put together is my 14.5" Starmaster. This scope just
hits a sweet spot for me. Big enough to show me what I
want. Fast setup and take down, and doesn't take up to
much room. Oh and most important, the Zambuto optics
are as close to perfect as you can get.

Best, John

PS, I also happen to have a wife who loves to
observe as much as I do. I am a very lucky guy.

I use the AP (Baader) tripod with my
G11. Works great, and the wood looks
wonderful.

What About This Objective Set?

Posted By John Kuhl

For that price I bet they used 40 grit
sandpaper to polish it.
