    Rifle Scopes No more Viper PST quotes / price matches

    Re: No more Viper PST quotes / price matches Although we lost the ability to negotiate with Scott and save a few bucks, Scott lost his niche to be able to offer a discount and attract so many of his loyalists. I'm truly sorry. I can only imagine how much revenue you have lost because of...

    Rifle Scopes 500ish scope?

    Re: 500ish scope? The Bushnell Elite 4200 3-12x44 with illuminated FFP mildot reticle and matching mil turrets goes for about $650-$700. The glass is very nice even compared to my NF. Only thing is that there's not a whole lot of internal elevation so you may need to get a 20MOA base if...

    Re: Low-power variable scope for son's .22 AR? I did an initial impressions review on the CMR here. http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=2045584#Post2045584 4th post down I think.

    Rifle Scopes Which scope do you recommended?

    Re: Which scope do you recommended? The Leatherwood/Hi-Lux CMR is pretty cool for the money. I haven't taken mine out yet but here's my initial impression. The scope feels a little inexpensive. It has heft to it and substance due to weight but details do look cheap. The printed numbers and...

    Rifle Scopes Ranging reticle with BDC for .223?

    Re: Ranging reticle with BDC for .223? Hey Scott, that's exactly what my bud is looking for but so totally out of his budget.

    Rifle Scopes Ranging reticle with BDC for .223?

    Are there any scopes that you can range with AND has a BDC for .223? Sort've like an ACOG with a 19MOA chevron and matching stadia lines at 100yd increments? TIA fellas.

    Rifle Scopes thoughts on Bushnell 4200 elite tactical

    Re: thoughts on Bushnell 4200 elite tactical That's for sure. When my bro asked me about the 6-24, I read the elevation and told him immediately that that's not a well developed scope.

    Rifle Scopes thoughts on Bushnell 4200 elite tactical

    Re: thoughts on Bushnell 4200 elite tactical You're probably gonna need a elevation base. We were calculating .223 77gr and just through ballistics, it looked like there was only enough elevation left (with our boresighted zero) to reach 850 yards. Divide bullet drop in inches by range in...

    Rifle Scopes thoughts on Bushnell 4200 elite tactical

    Re: thoughts on Bushnell 4200 elite tactical Ok just did an elevation test (3-12x44 FFP) and there's 21.4 MIL elevation and 22.1 MIL windage. After boresighting there was 9 MIL of elevation left.

    Rifle Scopes Ranging with duplex reticle

    Re: Ranging with duplex reticle Since there's no real ranging hash marks or dots or anything, it's obviously a terrible choice for range estimation and at best, not very precise. Since bullet drop can be very pronounced between short distances at length, I would give up range estimation with...

    Rifle Scopes thoughts on Bushnell 4200 elite tactical

    Re: thoughts on Bushnell 4200 elite tactical My bro got his today from the brown santa. It's pretty nice. I love the FFP reticle. I thought that at 3x the mils would be too small to use but they're not. You can definitely range even out to 3x. Also, the illumination is cool because it's...

    Rifle Scopes Mil-Dot

    Re: Mil-Dot Can't you setup a 3.6" target at 100 yards and check that it reads exactly 1MIL on your scope? Or if you want to mark an 11x location on your ring you can setup a 7.2" target at 100 yards and turn down your magnification until it reads 1MIL. Then you've got a handy marked spot...

    Rifle Scopes Mil-Dot

    Re: Mil-Dot I think FFP comes in handy on high magnification scopes. For example, let's say that your scope is 6-24x. If your mildot reticle is on SFP and is only accurate at maximum magnification, it may be too much zoom to range your target. That's when a FFP comes in handy. You can...

    Rifle Scopes How many PST FFP's hit the market

    Re: How many PST FFP's hit the market I just see it as growing pains. I really hope that when it becomes readily available, that it lives up to the hype.
