    Rifle Scopes Reticle Importance

    A factor that should come into play is durability for the conditions you'll be shooting in.

    magneto speed vs labradar?

    200 fps is a significant difference. Something you did was wrong or one of one of the chronographs was off. Recheck equipment settings and run test again.

    Rifle Scopes 150 Scopes tested, Results Posted !

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell DMRII vs DMRII pro

    There is a difference between the two. The Pro has better contrast, depth of field, and less chromatic aberration. The differences are not so noticeable at the lower end of the magnification but start to show once you pump it up. Is it worth it? It really depends on what you're doing. If you're...

    Rifle Scopes Another which rings question

    It's perfectly fine to not have a low-slung scope. There's no practical advantage in accuracy of a low scope height over a sort-of-high scope ring height. On one rifle, I've had an issue where the scope rings were too low because the comb on the stock was tall. When I got a proper cheek weld it...

    Rifle Scopes Help, which scope mount/rings?

    The OP's question related to quality not distance. A lot of scopes designed for long distance will get you out to 1,000 yards and more with standard rings, if they don't you can get a scope base that adds 20 MOA or more elevation to get your scope dialed to longer distances. There are also scope...

    Rifle Scopes Help, which scope mount/rings?

    Don't overthink this stuff. Rings will either be reliable or not. Seekins rings are a good start. Your hurdles as a new shooter won't be the equipment you have currently chosen, it will be you and the ammo you shoot. Overtime your gear is going to change. Get what's good and move on.

    Rifle Scopes DMRii vs LTRS

    The glass on the DMRII Pro is noticeably better than the DMR II in broad daylight. Better contrast, more depth of field, and less chromatic aberration, it's especially noticeable when you dial up the power. If the price difference is acceptable, go for the Pro.

    How is this chick different from the Christian Baker?

    Upon reading the Forum rules, this thread should have been nuked from the beginning simply by the topic title. I tried to stick to the judicial aspect of the thread, but it keeps getting steered into religion and politics. I'm guilty of touching on those subjects on this thread, I've removed 3...

    How is this chick different from the Christian Baker?

    Pmclaine I addressed your original question and explained the difference. You're not convinced. I believe I've made my point. You keep throwing in points that I see as irrelevant regarding actual laws that were violated. I didn't make those laws up. Me a social warrior, lol!!! Not much more...

    How is this chick different from the Christian Baker?

    Powdahound76 i've been a lurker, mostly in equipment related. I made a couple of posts about Sig optics recently. Haven't posted anything but that. Generally, a beginning long distance shooter, love to shoot anything that goes bang. And shoot something every week. I defend and support 2A. Saw...

    How is this chick different from the Christian Baker?

    EDITED: I removed my post and a response that upon rereading it verges on violating the forums policy on religious discussion.
