    I even asked if he had sent Martin a PM but guess that was a no. Thanks for clearing things up Martin!

    Debating an AI....

    1- I picked an AT solely for cost as I did not feel I was losing anything accuracy/function wise to the AX. Plus I kind of like the classic look. 2- Mile High gives a discount to hide members and they are a great company to to business with. That's where I purchased my AT.

    Rifle Scopes Steiner Optics Factory / The new T5Xi thread (-!!-Picture Heavy-!!-)

    They do test them for function and QC. Imagine hooking every scope up to a machine to test resolution that would take forever and cost a ton. Your beloved Nightforce probably tests their Military scopes per the contract and may batch test others for resolution but I'm sure they probably don't...

    precision rifles... show em

    That's a sweet rifle! I really have been thinking about getting a .300 blackout just for kicks. How quiet is it when suppressed? YouTube doesn't give much of an accurate idea of sound so I like to hear opinions from someone who has one.

    From what I had heard it sould be this month. I expect we should be hearing something anytime now. I just need to figure out how I'm going to be able to afford one.

    The T5Xi is being made here in the states as the 5x indicates its a 5x scope. I don't know about the 4x line I've only seen where the T5Xi line is made. Burris is to Steiner as CCI is to Speer. Both are part of the same parent company.

    It is not going to happen overnight that's for sure. There will always be those that will spend money on the most expensive scope just to have one or because they have the disposable income to buy the ultra pricey because it is the "best." If these lower priced products maintain high quality...

    Awesome! What kind of stock is that? I'm really considering a carbon stock for a lightweight build .

    Rifle Scopes The most durable medium range scope for 700y max.....?

    What kind of shooting out to 700 do you plan to do... Pure paper punching or various steel targets at different ranges? Also do you plan on shooting any practical/tactical rifle matches? Also what is your budget? If you are doing anything else but paper punching and think you...

    I could really use a demo too! Or one on a no interest payment plan now that I'm broke after buying my AI lol! I actually was in the same boat and was strongly considering a Razor gen. 2 before I got to see these new Steiner scopes. The SCR reticle and that awesome turret design is what got...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner failure

    No need to Google Kahr problems there is one on the table 5 feet away from me and have a good friend that has a PM9 that did have feeding issues. I also know it went back three times before it worked right. Mine has been flawless except for a bad batch of magazines but I'm fully aware of the...

    Now this is a good post that actually contains great information rather than a bitch fest since they said no to the demand for a new replacement. It makes me believe that the turret design may be flawed and hence why it was discontinued. If this was the initial post there would be no argument...

    My question to you is this.... On each of those instances you used warranty service for all those manufacturers did you go start a threads in the appropriate forums about those problems or is this a special situation? I sent a Glock in for service and paid to ship it out but they fixed it...
