Are there magnified optics without a fixed eye relief?

❓ Are there magnified optics without a fixed eye relief?


Sorry for flaunting my optics ignorance so unabashedly with this question..... 🤦🏻‍♂️


I love my red dots:
No matter where my eye is — sometimes 2 feet away from the optic, sometimes almost touching it — I always have a shot.

However, I'd like something with a little more magnification, even 2x or 3x would be great.

I understand that adding a magnifier will change my eye relief — and my unlimited-eye-relief red dot turns into a regular scope with a fixed eye relief of only a few inches.


➧ Is there anything out there that will do this trick?
➧ Or are we still waiting for that innovation?


Thanks! 👍🏼

Inverted Tripod Sling Ideas?

Any good suggestions on how to run a sling on an Inverted Tripod?

I use the cole tac tripod sling on a normal tripod and it works great, but can't think of a good way to run one on an inverted tripod for NRL Hunter matches when you have to stow all your gear... some people run the OBI system and clip them to their pack, but $150 seems like a lot to hang a tripod to a bag.

Ideas?

300 BLK various barrel lengths velocity subsonic and supersonic.

I had a chance to get to the range and shoot my 7.5", 10.5", and 16" 300BLK weapons with subsonic and supersonic ammo I wanted to see what the velocity difference would be with the different length barrels using the same ammo same day/same time using my Garmin Xero C1.

What I found is with the supersonic ammo there was a lot bigger difference in velocity with different barrel lengths vs the subsonic ammo with different barrel lengths.

Here are my results if anyone is interested each group was the average of 5 shots.

Forgot to add all shots were with a DA Nomad L attached to the weapons.

MidWest Industries QD mount ring question

I use MidWest Industries 34mm QD scope mounts for my AR’s with LPVO’s. My current need is to have a upper replacement ring that incorporates a section of picatinny to mount a LRF such as the Vortex Impact 4000. Often called “diving board” and it doesn’t need to be tall enough to clear a 56mm objective….just long enough to engage the mounting portion on the Vortex. I don’t see that MidWest makes anything like this but if they do, please reply (FYI, I have reached out to MidWest and am awaiting their reply). AND also please reply if you know the mounting pattern (screws) matches another manufacturer that does make this diving board ring. I hope that makes sense….basically what I’m asking is if any brand/manufacturer Diving Board 34mm ring section could be used on my MidWest Industries 34mm scope mount….OR whoever, I don’t care the manufacturer just that it would work on my scope mount.

Thank you.

Dasher and 105/107 and n150?

Anyone had this work? Been tinkering with n150 as alternative to varget. I know some have made it work well with 109s, but I am struggling with 105 hybrids and 107 smks. SD is 2-3x varget for range of loads anywhere from 30gr (2880-ish) to 31gr (2980+), on the order of 15-20SD. Case fill issue? CCI450 with Alpha brass, ATV4 powder trickler, 266 die bushing. Tried in 2 Dashers (both with 700-ish rounds) and both didn't have good SDs, but shot pretty well (<.5MOA). Tried cleaning, scoped to make sure no carbon ring, etc. Thoughts?
