    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor HD 5-20x50 Or Nightforce F1 NXS 3.5-15x50.

    YES!! I have sent in both Vortex scopes, one twice. Got them back and got rid of them. So I am not a fan of them.... but here is a lil something to think about... a member of the hide and I went out and he has a 6.5 CR and we were hitting steel at 1435 yds. we missed more than we hit but it...

    Range Finders under $1,000

    Really??? They are JUNK. Took it back the next day and bought the ziess. It,s rated at 1300 yds but I get over 1400 all day long and it does not have to be reflective, it can a pile of dirt and it will range just fine. Lieca is great piece and now that I shoot farther I use it. It will...

    Best ballistics program

    I use Litiz's program too. Applied Ballistics. It's fairly simple and works fine.

    230 grn hybrids for 300 win

    I run 75 gr. H1000 on my steyr ssg 23.6 in. Barrel at 2640. I also shoot the hornady 225 with the same load and they fly out at 2718 fps. SD is about 17 fps with my horadys and less than 10 fps with my bergers. Nosler custom brass and 215m primers for both so I'm not sure what that is all...

    Best scope for beyond 1500?

    Wow... some very interesting post. All I know is my nightforce has been good to me (5.5x22 nxs). I honestly have never used an sb or us op. in the field. Sfp is what I learned on and works for ME. There are many ways to shoot out to 1500 and beyond successfully. There was a lot of good...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Recommendations

    So I buy Nightforce from now on.... I have several friends that used them in the Service and that is all they run. Also, when someone like Brandon Webb who was the sniper course manager at the Navy SEAL sniper school gets out and has a Nightforce on his own 300 that says something to me...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Recommendations

    I bought two PST 6 x 24 and had problems with both. My brother great luck with vortex but I didn't. I was told long ago that ' you get what you pay for' and I believe that is especially true with optics.

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x50 vs Vortex PST 6-24x50 FFP

    Really? You get what you pay for with this. I bought two PST within a week of each other. I needed one for my 700 (308) and one for my Steyr (300) and bought into the Vortex hooplah big time. I had trouble with both. One did not track accurately and would return to zero. The other had a...
