    Vortex Impact 4000 in Comps

    Yup, you can do that although it's pretty easy to screw that up under time/match pressure. I'm firmly of the belief that the Impact is more of an "adjunct" ranging device (vs a primary) In using mine, I've found that you can either holdover for everything if time is absolutely of the essence or...

    Night Vision Vortex Impact 4000 Rifle/Rail mounted Range finder???

    I've found mine to hold zero quite well. I've also marked the zeros for different rifles with sharpie on the elevation and windage dials and have found when moving them back and forth that they RTZ quite well.

    Envision MARS-M and M/C

    Yeah, I've read through the Mars thread, hadn't seen anything about the 905nm version. Don't disagree that $7k for a 905nm laser is pretty ridiculous, all things considered, haha.

    Rifle Scopes Is a Viper PST Gen 3 coming???

    I currently run the PST G2 2-10 on a "SPR-ish" rifle. Realistically all they need to do to that optic is make the elevation locking, the windage locking or capped and put in a new reticle (either a simpler mil-hash as the current one has weird longer hashes on the vertical stadia below center or...

    Night Vision B.E. Myers' WMLRF entry

    Was just reading about it on SSD. Seems like a really cool piece of kit but more geared for use on an MG where the gunner is wearing head-mounted nods. It does mention use with precision rifles but I'm not sure how useful aiming with active IR is in a precision fires context. I think that it can...

    AR 10 build 6.5 CM

    Yeah, there definitely is a speed cutoff. I can't say for sure your load is hot, all barrels, chambers, etc are different. I'm more saying that comparing relatively faster .308 loads to moderate 6.5 loads doesn't really give you an accurate performance comparison. By your math, you're still...

    AR 10 build 6.5 CM

    To be honest, I think you're kinda comparing apples and oranges. 2795 with 155s out of a 16" barrel is screaming. I run 155 ELDMs at 2825 out of a 20" bolt gun and wouldn't go any higher. I run 140 ELDMs at 2650 in a 19" gas gun and 18" bolt gun. What pushed me to the 18" 6.5 bolt gun was the...

    GLX 2.5-10 vs Credo 2-10 vs PST Gen II vs PLXc 1-8 vs Razor Gen III 1-10 ?

    I have a PST G2 2-10 as well and although I quite like it in it's application (18" .223 gas gun) I agree that it should have capped windage and an updated reticle (like the EBR-7 that the 3-15 and 5-25 have or the EBR-9 from the 1-10). The current reticle (EBR-4) just makes me scratch my head...

    Garmin Xero C1 Pro chronograph

    I'll have to check what the offset is set to in my LR, I've never tinkered with that setting in the 5+ years I've had it.

    Garmin Xero C1 Pro chronograph

    Yup, had it setup in the correct spot. Garmin was on left side of rifle, LR on right, both same spacing from the rifle (albeit on opposite sides).

    Garmin Xero C1 Pro chronograph

    I just got a Garmin the other day and was comparing it yesterday side by side to my Labradar. The Labradar was being a pain in the ass and didn't pick up a shot till the 8th (of 20) but the Garmin was slower across every shot, as little as 3fps and as much as 11fps slower. What was strange (to...

    Impact 4k mounting option thread

    I've run mine on 2x Spuhr low Raptar mounts (on an ISMS unimount and hunting unimount) and on a Era Tac on bolt guns and have run it on the top ring cap pic rail (not Raptar mount) on an old Badger Unimount and have 30 and 34mm Vortex mounts/diving boards coming in for other gas guns.

    Do you run a SunShade and why or why not.

    I'm the same, run a sunshade on all my magnified optics (other than LPVOs) as they help when shooting into the sun as well as in the rain and I can't think of a downside.

    Shooters Global Pulse -> electronic level -shoot diagnostics tool

    I honestly don't really see the use of the ACI being that it only displays in the phone/app, same for "stability". The price difference between this and the Send It is the difference between US manufacturing and chicom manufacturing...

    SERT vs Savior

    I have the Triad case, the AG case, the AG M2010 case, and a short discrete case (they also make regular cases, up to 64" long) from Elite Survival Systems. I'd buy another case from any of them without hesitation, awesome quality, made in the USA and have all held up well to nearly daily use.

    New Burris LRF integrated scope

    I can't speak to the execution of the previous Eliminators (as I've never handled one) but the concept is definitely the way things are going. Most here are pumped on the Vortex Impact 4000 bringing a reasonably priced weapon-mounted LRF to the masses, this just integrates all that tech in the...

    Rifle Scopes Razor 1-10 vs ATACR 1-8, 1X Reticle Usability Without Illumination

    I've gotta say I'm curious why the requirement for a usable reticle at 1x without illum? I've been using a Razor 1-10 for years and really like it. The illum is super bright and it works great at 1x and the reticle is nice at 6-10x for holdovers at distance. I'll grant that I run a red dot at...
