    Optics Advice for AR-15

    I would not buy a LPVO for bench shooting. I have a bunch and I never shoot them from a bench. You'll be much more comfortable with a 3-15/4-16.

    Did Steiner just quietly build the MPO we have all been asking for? H6xi

    Agreed! I don't think less of people who enjoy other forms of shooting, or think they are "wrong", I just wanted illustrate that for other people, a light weight, mid magnification scope with red dot fills a role that other archetypes can't fulfill.

    Did Steiner just quietly build the MPO we have all been asking for? H6xi

    Have you ever used a 5-25x56 on a 14.5" carbine? It's pants on head retarded. It's honestly a bit much for a AR-10. The 3-18 or 4-16 class of scopes are quite nice for AR-10s. I really don't enjoy having a baseball bat on top of my rifle. I generally don't enjoy benchrest shooting with...

    Prism Scope Field of View

    The 4x acog has a fov of 36 feet at 100 yards which is more than most scopes at 4x. I don't think this is a problem with prisms, I'm sure ilya will see this thread and chime in with some facts.

    Hensoldt 3,5-26x56 vs PMII

    Sounds like a zco 4-20 would be perfect.

    SAI 10 1-10

    Just another perspective... I like my SAI 1-6 and I like my NX8. There are things I dislike about both of them. I hate the "turrets" on the sai 6. The 1x isn't as true as the NX8 the NX8 that I have is flatter, has less edge distortion and has less mag at 1x. The SAI 6 has some serious...

    Which AR15 to keep?

    I'd keep the URGI. If that were a m4a1 with ris 2... If keep that. I agree with you about downsizing no need for a stable of rifles that don't get shot. I really only shoot 3 of my ARs... Why have a few that sit around and don't do anything? If you are a collector and these are iconic ars...

    SAI 10 1-10

    I prefer the SAI reticle to the fc-dmx. It's easier to use the SAI on 1x without illumination. I do like the floating dot in the fc-dmx more than the cross hair, but I prefer the rapid aiming feature to the horseshoe, overall, I think the SAI has a better reticle for a LPVO... But I don't use...

    Monolithic uppers coming from Icon Defense (former Mega Arms guys)

    That didn't come across right... I'm not trying to be a downer, I like mega and would gladly use them for a custom build, but in my mind, this doesn't make LMT obsolete. They target different markets IMO. The LMT is unique, but I can understand why someone would want a quality monolithic...

    Monolithic uppers coming from Icon Defense (former Mega Arms guys)

    I have a variety of mega builds, and while the quality/fit/finish is top notch, I prefer my variety of LMTs. If I had to downsize... I'd keep an MRP and a MWS and sell everything else, and I wouldn't miss the other stuff. LMT has enough design changes to stand out from the crowd. Same goes...

    Accuracy international action stocks

    You should be able to buy a blank rifle stock of your choice and have it inletted by a smith of your choosing. They will probably need to cut into the action for a bottom metal, of modify the bottom metal for the action. This is something Long Rifles Inc would likely take on.

    SAI 10 1-10

    I like, but don't love my SAI6. It's a good value, but it's not perfect. My issues with it have nothing to do with magnification range, so I'll pass, unless people rave about the 1x, then they will have my attention.

    Why are non-translating turrets desirable?

    It's 100% preference. Just depends on how you like to keep track of what revolution you are on. Non translating turrets aren't more accurate or anything like that... Just preference.
