    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST Gen II 3-15 Wind turret stuck

    When the cap pulled away slightly, was it oily underneath? Sounds like the turret cap is suctioned on with some oil.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST Gen II 3-15 Wind turret stuck

    Mine can get a bit of suction to the windage turret at times - back all the screws well out, then rotate back and forth and pulling lightly. I’ve had them come off with an airtight “pop” sound before - especially if any moisture gets in there. If that doesn’t work, you don’t need to remove the...

    Hearing protection

    I also use the MSA Sordins over foam plugs - I’ve found a taller scope mount (1.25-1.5”) keeps my head vertical on the rifle and the earmuff out of the way. I’ve found that shooting suppressed goes a long way as well - I really enjoy it. Unfortunately not every rifle at the range has a can, so...

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    Eform 4 SingleShot Trust Supressor Submitted 11/28 Approved 6/6 190 Days This had previously been submitted and withdrawn via Eform when I moved states. Don’t be jealous of the wait time - I ordered this from TBAC in April of 2021. One of the last Gen 1 338 Ultras. I have another one that...

    You have $5,000 to spend on a rifle and optic - what would you get and why?

    ZCO and a Tikka. Edited to add why. In my opinion, optic and trigger are your main interfaces with the rifle (assuming LOP and cheek height is appropriate). The Tikka will shoot out of the box and has great aftermarket support - most importantly shouldered prefit barrels. The Zero Comp is an...

    Review of the Leapers Over-Bore Bipod

    Resurrected a 2 year old thread for a rant. Huge value add.

    Trying to decide on a couple of prefit barrels...

    I’ve had two PVA Prefits, two Criterion Remage barrels (not on my Origin), and a Proof prefit. They’ve all shot well. For convenience, at the same price, I’d get a shouldered prefit. It’s slightly easier to install and should headspace without adjustment. All 3 options have shot well for me...

    Nightforce atacr 5x25x56 on waypoint 2020?

    American Rifle Company has a good description of how to measure (with pennies) for ring height. ARC The major benefit to lower scope to bore height is a lower profile rifle. With an adjustable cheek riser, you set the rifle to the scope height. I prefer a high mount (1.25”-1.5”) for more neck...

    Any South Florida rifle ranges of 1,000 yds and longer?

    I believe this is the current Immokalee range operator. https://swflrange.com/ I recommend JTAC as well - I loved shooting there when I was in SWFL.

    Vortex Razor HD Gen III 6-36x56

    Nice to see Vortex responding to customer feedback and making changes. Currently shooting a Gen II Razor and thinking I’ll make the upgrade soon!

    Help me pick a scope?

    I shot a 5-25 in matches for 2 years on a .308, and now hunt with it. It fell off of a shooting bench and landed on the turret, which broke. Vortex fixed it fast and it hasn’t been an issue in years.

    Help me pick a scope?

    The PST Gen II 3-15 is a great value. Solid glass, illuminated reticle for low light shots, and fits in that budget. I have that and the 5-25 and I think the 3-15 glass quality and eye relief are better.

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    Just did this. Unfortunately had to withdraw and resubmit. If you have a trust with multiple responsible persons and one still resides in that state you may not have to withdraw and resubmit. That wasn’t the case for me - ordered the TBAC in April 2021 and still waiting patiently.

    Which red dot for small carry pistol?

    That’s almost as rare as something announced at SHOT Show being available.
