Re: Viper Vortex 6-24 ffp or sfp - convince me I know it's confusing, but I want to want the FFP. Everyone on here seems to rave about them. I DO want to be able to range things easier...without having to be on max power if it doesn't call for it. A question that I think may help a lot...

Re: Viper Vortex 6-24 ffp or sfp - convince me I think that I'd like to be able to, and to learn that. At the range, the targets will be at fixed distances, but in the desert, I won't know the distances exactly. And I don't have a laser range finder, and don't want to get one at this point...

When I bought my rifle, I had now idea about glass. I really had no idea about shooting much of anything but handguns, so I've very new to the need for optics. I've read a few threads on here that sort of touch on the subject, but I think I need more. I started out looking at scopes that were...

Re: Wotac 4.5-14x44 FFP - reviews? Thanks for the reply. I actually contacted him with regards that that specific thread about a month back. I'm fine with giving a small business a shot, and may order through SWFA to hopefully reduce any potential problems. What I'm looking for though, is...

I've been dealing with a cheapy Tasco 3-9 with horrible parallax, on my R700 308 for over a year, because I can't decide on a quality budget scope. I found a newly released scope from Wonders Optics. It's a FFP mil/mil 4.5-14x44. I've been looking for something mil/mil for around this price...

Re: Vortex Viper 6.5-20x50mm review Thank you for posting this review. I had been looking at the Millett TRS-1 up until today. For some reason, before today, I found nothing but good about the TRS-1, and now, I'm seeing nothing but bad. Maybe this will be a good alternative. I just wish...

Re: best scope for less then $350? Other than this last post, this thread has sold me on the Millet TRS-1 mil/mil. Since it's been another 8 months since the last post, are the suggestions in the thread still relevant? Have there been any new scopes that have come along that out perform these?

Re: Looking for a ~$300 tactical scope Taseal, I'm about in the same boat as you. Low budget, but want to get something decent to learn on. I just picked up an SPS-V for $499 + extortion fees, and a $29.90 EGW 20 moa base. Looking for a scope to learn with that will eventually end up on...

Re: XLR Chassis Stock I randomly came across a picture of this stock in Google images, while searching for who knows what else, and completely fell in love! Took me a few days to find out exactly what this stock was, but I eventually figured it out. This stock is the reason I decided to buy...

Re: Rebate on 700 SPS Varmint - first gun... If it were to get some surface rust, is it something that can be cleaned and maybe duracoated or something? I'm in southern California, and it doesn't get overly humid here. Especially were I shoot in the desert. Basically, as long as I keep the...

Re: Rebate on 700 SPS Varmint - first gun... So, as far as rust goes, that's something to watch out for? I want this thing to last as long as possible. What exactly is the black oxide finish? Is it just hot bluing or something?
