    Rifle Scopes Nightforce Wedge Prism

    interesting the point about lawsuits and patents are ignored, typical of the internet forums, focus on the shiny object. I shouldn't have been so harsh on koskin, probably a great guy. koshkin have a good day BTW. like most things legal though and this is probably not an exception. if a...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce Wedge Prism

    koskin, Now you're a legal expert? interesting. while I do read your optics reviews I always thought something wasn't quite right. proclaiming to be able to read the patent and determine who is entitled to what is a new one for me. YES it matters what the patent says but at this point it...

    Rifle Scopes 243 WSSM AR15 Scope

    SFP is what you want, your shots are still mostly going to be closer in. you want a scope that works well on its lowest power (your scope will be on this power most often) AND in poor light conditions. 3-12 huskemaw. don't laugh. I know the crowd here wants to. but its designed from the...

    Rifle Scopes What The Joes Use: Top Optics Manufacturers in Local PRS Competition

    they are sponsored, IE get free scopes, come on now, use some horse sense here. No one gives away more free optics than Vortex does. Its ok they are great at marketing. but don't confuse that with being better. I don't plan on trading my nighforce scopes for any vortex scopes. If...

    Rifle Scopes What The Joes Use: Top Optics Manufacturers in Local PRS Competition

    one company gives scopes away like candy. another doesn't need to. you figure out which 2 companies I am talking about.

    Rifle Scopes Huskemaw Tactical Hunter 5-20 BDC

    don't worry I am sure they don't sell many of them. the turret does that because it lifts up to reveal different markings that can be used for different conditions, kinda innovative if you ask me. when the knob is down, don't worry its not any bigger than the porky hubble telescope type...

    Rifle Scopes Design your ideal precision hunting scope

    FFP is a terrible choice for a hunting scope. you want excellent reticle performance on the lowest power because that is where the scope should be set most often. in order to accomplish that you want a SFP reticle. I agree keep the scope power moderate, 3x on the low end 14-15x on the high...

    Rifle Scopes Glass... Glass.. Glass. I keep reading good glass is everything. Vortex Viper glass opinions?

    who cares about the glass, worry about the mechanicals!!!. I will take an $80 bushnell glass if the mechanicals work well. vortex is a joke, I know the warranty is awesome but, how about not needing it. No one talks about nightforce warranty because no one ever needs it. I tested 2 PST's II's...

    Rifle Scopes Tried the scope calibration as shown in SH video

    the tall target has a sting with a weight on it, I adjust it for plum by hitting one of the stakes in the ground more than the other. its pretty easy to tap one side or the other to get the string straight up and down. I actually tested it twice and the results I got were exactly repeated on...

    Rifle Scopes Tried the scope calibration as shown in SH video

    I needed to get ready for a hunt that was 2 weeks away. that is why I tested 2 scopes. I returned the first one and got another one and checked it before putting it on the gun. Same exact issue. returned the second one and bought a nightforce. I have to little time, spend too much on gas...

    Rifle Scopes Tried the scope calibration as shown in SH video

    I am glad for you, mine did not and you can see the lengths I went to to check, 99.99% of people will never check a scope in the manner that I did. I hope your scope works great. until something changes I will not be buying vortex.

    Rifle Scopes Tried the scope calibration as shown in SH video

    I tested 2 of the SFP 3-15 PST 2 scopes about 18 months ago and both had canted reticles, showing 3/4 MOA right reticle shift at 20 MOA. the amount of the clicks and return to zero were spot on. These are Philippine made scopes. I still do not trust them over japanese made optics. vortex...

    Rifle Scopes Marine Corps Scout Snipers Choose Nightforce Optics

    the 5-25 is too much scope anyways, much less the 7-35. the problem I see is they are adding so much weight to the system. not a big fan of the horus reticle either. 3.5-15 would have been my choice. plenty of scope for 1000 and beyond.

    Rifle Scopes New Bushnell Forge Scopes

    biggest problem with bushnell is the company has been horse traded by various private equity companies who suck the blood out of the company then pedal off whats left. Vista outdoors appears to be the last company with no chair to sit in at the end of musical chairs. If you look at all the...

    Rifle Scopes Another Vortex down

    the reticle shifts in a linear fashion to the right, which would move POI left as the reticle travels downward, remember the reticle adjusts the opposite of POI. 20 MOA is about all the adjustment I ever will need in my scope. so that is the distance I am most concerned with. its about 3/4...
