Matthew Campbell, member, from OK, United States, asked on October 28, 2018

Will this scope work with 6.5 Grendel?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Armando R., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on May 15, 2019

It could theoretically be used with 6.5 Grendel, but these are BDC reticles designed specifically around the calibers that are listed. You would need to do your own measurements regarding bullet drop and compensation and compare it to the subtensions of the reticle.

Q
Michael, guest, from DE, United States, asked on November 24, 2021

what scope mount is needed/do you recommend for the 6.5cm?

Manufacturer Answer
A
Answered by Primary Arms Optics, Manufacturer from TX, United States, on December 15, 2021

Depends on the firearm. Does your 6.5cm have a picatinny rail or what clearance is needed to raise the center height of the scope to not hinder the sight picture are some of the questions needed to adequately provide an honest answer.

does this scope have a true zero stop

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Ethan, Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on June 01, 2022

Unfortunately, the Primary Arms 3-18 x 50 mm Rifle Scope is no longer available. I would recommend the Meopta Optika6 3-18x50mm 30mm Tube Rifle Scope, which uses a zero stop/locking turrets, and can be found by using the link below:

Q
water, member, from OH, United States, asked on March 18, 2021

Can you tell us what kinds of power throw levers the ring will accept? The manual shows that it can be replaced, and I am looking for more length.

Manufacturer Answer
A
Answered by Primary Arms Optics, Manufacturer from TX, United States, on December 15, 2021

Primary Arms doesn't have a dedicated throw lever to fit the 3-18x50 scope, but the ocular lens size is 35.5mm. Source a throw lever slightly larger than the ocular lens that allows for variable adjustment should work.
