unertl programmer

Hopefully it has the mounts and bases with it, as they can be diff. to round up, congratulations, you have one of the finest scopes made in the early days of precision shooting, very valuable, I hate to ask how much you paid. These Unertls are still doing great work on Shuetzen guns, and CBA bench guns(breech seating). I saw a recently made Unertl, go for $25,000 on E-bay, this is the one made for Special Forces, but I guess that even the US DND couldn't afford them either.

25k for a scope?
i agree!!! 25K for a scope??
yikes.
you can be asssured i didn't pay that for it. i might be convincd to sell it for that tho. LOL
i thought there may be some target/schuetzen shooters who know how to set them a programmer.
i understand there is a bit to the set up, and yes bases came with it.

i don't know how to post pictures.
but you can go to www.alexweb.net/unertl . he shows a programmer on his web site.
my thoughts??
zero it at 25 yards, then run the "parallax" ring out to 200 yards.
zero it at 200 yards.
then count the number of turns of the "parallax" ring to bring it back to 150, 100, 50 and 25 yards.
as i understand it the scope adjusts for distance, but i could be wrong.
i intend to use it on my martini international ... 22LR.

not a programmer...
the previous owner thought it was a programmer but it after working with it at the range and going back to alexweb (dewey's) site i believe i have a
1 1/2" target unertl.
nice scope... but not a programmer.
BTW i sent off an e mail to dewey asking about how to adjust a programmer . he was good enough to tell me to call him and he would run me through it.
good effort on his part.
i shot my first ever 100 yard CGN bench rest postal match with it. didn't win... there be snipers among us
i'll do better next time now that i know how to focus the scope!

Programmer-200
The "Programmer-200" with "POSA-Mounts" represents the present day ultimate in rifle telescopes. It should result in significant improvement in convenience and precision, factors that will appeal to the serious target or bench rest shooter.
This model offers to the rifleman new convenience in focusing of a rifle telescope and, with the POSA-Mount target mounts, increased accuracy with a substantially improved base holding system.
Generally, the focusing of the telescope is accomplished by the axial displacement of the objective lens in a mechanical system using fine pitch threads by positioning a graduated ring relative to a fixed scale. Ten to fifteen turns may be required to cover the range from infinity to 50 ft. Geometrical optics relationships result in a non-linear scale, meaning that a larger displacement is required when going from 75 ft. to 50 ft. as compared to going from infinity to 100 yards.
"Programmer-200" makes range changes from 200 yards to 50 ft. in less than one-half turn of the range graduated ring, on a linear calibration, and with a compensatory ring so that any secondary correction can be made with the identical precision of the conventional system. Also, the user can set the scope parallax free for any intermediate range which falls between any two programmed ranges.
The heart of "Programmer-200" is a precisely generated cam, linearly spaced with dwell positions provided for at 200, 100, 50 and 25 yds. and 50 ft. A secondary graduated ring, using the normal fine pitch thread system, provides for zero compensation at each programmed range and also permits parallax free setting at any intermediate ranges. Each range setting has a 15-degree cam dwell (zero lead cam position) and it is therefore not necessary to precisely position the program ring relative to the reference line.
The optical system incorporates the latest improvement in the state of the art of optical instrumentation. All air to glass surfaces of the optical system use the new higher efficiency low reflectance coating which reduces reflection losses by to about one-half of the conventional low reflection coatings. This would result in a theoretical net transmission increase of 10%. All achromatic lenses are cemented with the newest developed extended temperature range baked cements. Improvements in the mechanical design coupled with the increased size ocular give a large field of view.

I have 4 Unertl scopes and I like them all.
I also picked up a Lyman SuperTargetSpot. This is along the same lines as Unertl but originally cost a little less money. Mine is a 20x and sits atop a Remington Rolling Block No. 2 (the small rolling block) in .17 HMR. They make a great combination.

Congrats!! I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much as I enjoy mine. Mine, a 10X, was part of a 'package'. It's mounted on a custom Winchester High Wall of that era and in a vintage caliber as well, 219 Donaldson Wasp. Included in that 'package' was a set of RCBS dies and two of the three required forming dies required to form 219DW from 30-30. My 'antique' varmint/predator rifle and the only thing out of 'sync' is the Harris bi-pod I've put on it.
