    ATIP’s will be long. I would go with 1:8 I’m running 195’s in mine. I have 1:8. Buddy of mine built with same reamer has 1:8.4. It doesn’t shoot the 195’s as well as mine. Both shoot the 180 Berger hybrid well. Two shots this past mule deer season, two dead mule deer.

    Here are some results for my 7-300 PRC. I actually built two of them. Both are dressed with AG Composite stocks, trigger tech diamond triggers, Nightforce NX8 SCopes. Bartlein had an TBAC Ultra 5 and the Proof had a Cortina Tuner Break. The Bartelin dressed weighs right at 10 LBS, the Proof...

    Why isn’t Meopta Included among the Best?

    Meopta, from what I’ve read and seen, is a premium European Manufacturer of high end optics. It seems that they make, grind and coat their own glass. I own a Meostar, their entry level scope, and was amazed by the contrast and brightness of this scope...

    If you don’t mind me asking, what scopes do you run? Have any pictures to your rifles?

    Rifle Scopes Why isn’t Meopta Included among the Best?

    to each his own. As I mentioned before, I have the top end scopes as you can see in my picture. I paid that money. For me, and the majority of people that shoot and hunt, I’m trying to give them a less expensive option on what I feel is a quality product. Keeping up with the Jones’ doesn’t mean...

    Rifle Scopes Why isn’t Meopta Included among the Best?

    I never offered advice, I offered my first hand experience and opinion with the Meopta Optika 6 scope. Which is more than anyone on here has given that has talked negatively about the scopes. All hear say. “They can’t be any good because I spend 3000 plus on my bender, nightforce, march, Khales...

    I’d be lying if I answered the question. Because I don’t know what those mean. My scope is second focal plane if that helps

    Rifle Scopes Why isn’t Meopta Included among the Best?

    I don’t know about the MIL’s etc y’all are speaking of, but my 1/4 MOA clicks are spot on and when the bullet goes bang, it hits where click says it should go. Out to 1000

    Rifle Scopes Why isn’t Meopta Included among the Best?

    I beg to differ. I Have two nightforce ATACR’s I prefer the New Optika 6 at about 1/3 the cost. And I am a nightforce proponent.

    Rifle Scopes Why isn’t Meopta Included among the Best?

    I may be wrong, but I think entire spotting scope is made by Meopta and private labeled for nightforce. And as far as price goes, lot of guys that hunt a few times a year actually prefer a good scope at an affordable price. They prolly make up quite a bit of the industry.

    I can’t speak to that, but my 1/4” MOA clicks and dials tracked and returned to zero. That’s on the new Optika 6. Got “dope” from 200 out to 1000 and back to zero.
