Through The Scope - The Malcolm 20X Target Scope

We're looking through the scope on a Malcolm 20X Target scope. If you're familiar with our 8X Vintage Sniper scopes, then this design will look remarkably similar - with a few notable changes.

For one thing, it's got much higher magnification. If you've got an old bolt action (like a Model 70) or a single-shot target rifle (like a Remington 514), this is the sort of scope that would feel right at home. The parallax adjustment is also quite different. Rather than removing the sun shade, this scope's focus is adjusted by moving two rings on the objective bell. It's easy enough to move that you don't even need to get up from behind the rifle.

Some more details on the scope - 26" long, 41mm objective, 3/4" scope tube. External adjustments, with the same rings as our Gen ii 8X Scope. They've got some darn nice clicks, though I won't be using any for this video.

00:00 Introduction
I'll be filming this with a phone attachment, and unfortunately only a small portion of the sensor gets used. The amount of detail the human eye can pick up will far exceed this. I'm also recording the audio after the filming. It was a busy day at the range, and all the firing definitely drowned out my voice.

The range was pretty warm, getting up to near 80 in the morning. That means about as much mirage as possible.

01:08 50 Yards
We'll start on some paper targets at 50 yards. This is a very fun distance for .22 shooting, and there's plenty of .22 holes on the sheet from tinkering around with rifles earlier in the day.
This is also a good distance to play with parallax, switching from the landscape and back to the target.

02:54 650 yards
Time for a more distant view. On the hillside at 650 yards, there's a 30", 5", 20", and 10" target. With 20X magnification, they're all visible. You can even see the different impacts on fresh paint, though high mirage may interfere with this to some degree.

04:10 100-500 Yards
There's plenty of targets to choose from at the range, so this is a good opportunity to look at some variety and adjust the parallax on the way.
With this scope, I was able to confirm that one of the large, popular targets has tons of holes going through it.

07:10 1000 yards
Looking up at the hillside, I don't have a good target to show. There are plenty of bushes and fallen tree pieces to see, though.

08:18 Conclusion
That's it for today!
