I need one short parallax scope 10 meters or below .
Vector Veyron comes to my mind but not limited and open for suggestions. Private sales or possible trade?

Budget is ... I only want to defend my walnut trees in my backyard from squirrels hordes :)
I need only for 5-15 meters max shooting between tree branches, shortest possible parallax, shortest possible scope body, not mil dot, and can be cheap.
I had several LPVO's in the past for mid range shooting rings at 20-50 and I could not get used to the low power, also the parallax was uncomfortable for shorter distances... and I sold them all.
Otherwise I have my high dollar target scopes for longer range rings at 50-200, but non of these can focus shorter of 10 meters.

As much I researched the Veyron series have two scopes P<10y and some UTG goes down to 6y. ImmersionOptics would work but very short eye relief makes you crick in a neck aiming straight up (I already had the IO 14x50).

Let me know what you have in a pm and we go from there.

You can get a new Tasco Air 2-7X32 for less than $100. The lowest focus mark is 7.5 yds and you can focus a little closer than that. I have 2 of them and no complaints on springers.

I found one older cheap junk 3-9 FFP mildot scope in my boxes, I think I got it with a QB about some ten years ago. I managed to brake loose the front ring and readjasted the focus less then 20 meters at max power, this gave me about 5-6 meters at medium and looks almost pretty at minimum. It can work as a first aid untill I find a decent one. I hate to see the FFP mildot growing thickness when zooming.
This was my first time doing this surgary on a scope not much loss if doesn't work out.
