    FAL accuracy experiences

    Rifle Scopes need your thoughts....

    Re: need your thoughts.... I have A Mk 4 8.5-25x50mm. I found it to be very good but have the same complaint as sandbogg with having to adjust eye relief with every magnification change. I was wondering if anyone has found A way to deal with this or is this normal for the scope.

    FAL accuracy experiences

    Sight picture

    Re: Sight picture That is an excellent point. I used iron sights almost exclusively during my time in the military, and made a couple of very long range shots 1700 yrds being the longest. ( I did that with a .50 cal machine gun on the tri pod). The only way I could make that shot was...
