Rifle Scopes Need help which format, moa or mil?
Re: Need help which format, moa or mil? I speak all 3 languages fluently MILS, MOA & IPHY. If the optic tracks true any system will work just fine, math is math and 99% of the ballistic programs will spit it out any way you want it. For ease of use I personally prefer IPHY. The multiplier...- doc76251

Re: ID Of M15 Tripod With Side Mount Head That looks an awful lot like a Freeland Scope Stand that I used in High Power back in the day. Never seen a low position one before though. There is one on E-Bay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Freeland-Spottin...=item46035c6399 Cheers, Doc- doc76251

Gunsmithing Scope Mounting Kit? Is It Really Necessary?
Re: Scope Mounting Kit? Is It Really Necessary? The only time it REALLY matters is if your base(s) are out of true and you end up bending a scope. Of course this only matters if you are running a 2 piece base. On a a 1 piece pic rail it would take some serious torque to twist a scope or...- doc76251
