    Battle Rifle Optic Choice??? GO...

    USO are great optics, but out of budget for this build. I have an SN3 on my bolt gun. I've looked at eotech, but have mixed reviews. A red dot is probably what I'll go with.

    Lyman 1200 DPS 3 issues!!!

    Re: Lyman 1200 DPS 3 issues!!! I took my cell phone back in the house, turned off the radio and made sure there were no drafts. I ended up setting it for 43.7 and just trickling to 44gr. That is the only way it will work. using the auto setting is out of the question.
