Ok, real simple fix for an overgassed system...try moving the gas block up a bit. Its works two fold by obsuring the gas port a bit and lets in a little more gas to the carrier key area before cycling the action.

I would look to a 1x or 2x prism optic. Sure, you will lose some battery life and eye relief, but the optic will always present a reticle, on or off. Furthermore, your astigmatism will be a none issue so you aiming point will be more precise for longer shots.

Anyone have some data for H414 and the 6CM, bullets from 105- to 108 grains? Sitting on 8 pounds of it. Pretty sure the burn rate was similar to H4350 and IMR4350 but all the new burn rate charts I have found exclude H414.

Bump

Looking to sell a like new (no ring marks) SWFA 3-15x42 mil turret and quad mil second focal plane reticle optic. I do not have the original snazzy nondescript white box it was shipped in, however will be packaged correctly for shipping. Asking $450 shipped. USPS MO or PP F&F preferred.

Looking to sell like new Athlon Optic Helos 8-34x56 APLR2 FFP IR MOA Reticle and 20 MOA Mount. No dings on the turrst and parallax knob, but a very slight rear ring mark. Includes everything from the factory with zero stop shims. AR-Stoner 20 MOA Cantilever mount. Asking $525 shipped...

Amazon has a few ARES BTR MOA available for $599. Good Deal?

Thanks for the replies gentlemen. Unfortunately the un-insured (found out later yesterday) dirtbag who slammed into my wife on Wednesday had other plans for my gun money.

My new optic has magically turned into a new trunk, bumper, right quarter panel, brake light. Dirtbag un-insured. For shits and giggles, what are the prices points?

Sheez, that some long ass hours.

Probably going the middle of the road with the Helos as I found a new one $500 shipped. More than the Argos but all most half of the Ares. Doug, I will call you later today. Thanks!

Probably and if that is the case, you can the Discovery Optics cheaper.

Looking to get my first FFP optic for PRS, however do not have the money for the SB, NF and etc. Unfortunately, I really do not see these level of optics in my future either. So specific to Athlon optics, are the $300 price jumps between the Argos, Helos and Ares BTR lines justifiable? TIA

Meopta has a new line coming out, the Optika 6 and it looks bad ass.

Your second statement contradicts your first. Isn't competitiveness and the belief of the ability to do well a mindset?
