    Rifle Scopes Is 2.5-10 too much scope for....

    Re: Is 2.5-10 too much scope for.... A lot depends on your eyes and your glass, but I would think that a 1-4x would really do the job at those ranges as well. The NF 2.5-10 is a nice option, of course.

    Rifle Scopes HORUS HAWK 3-12X50

    Re: HORUS HAWK 3-12X50 The Hawk is GTG. Clear glass, nice, usable reticle. They have a little widget on their website that allows for some pratice with the reticle system prior to purchasing one. Nothing like really getting behind the glass, but it is a nice gimmick!

    Rifle Scopes How to tell if NF NXS is NV ready?

    Re: How to tell if NF NXS is NV ready? In my experience, no. A lit reticle is needed for a forward mounted NVD.

    Rifle Scopes Scope for an AR15

    Re: Scope for an AR15 Back on topic... For range work, a fixed power scope is fine, but for hunting, the variable is almost a neccessity. A friend of mine was using a Bushnell 3200 10x40 for coyotes and he had trouble staying on a moving target with the limited FOV. I prefer my 1-4's on the...

    Re: Problem or no problem Actually, that low height over barrel can be an advantage, I believe.

    Rifle Scopes Any thoughts on Leupold vs Horus Vision?

    Re: Any thoughts on Leupold vs Horus Vision? I have owned two Horus scopes, the Talon and the Hawk. The glass on both is very clear and the reticles rock. I have had zero issues with them.

    Rifle Scopes Best optic for helmet mounted nv

    Re: Best optic for helmet mounted nv Plus, the IR lasers are fairly expensive unless you get some Chicom clone that breaks the first time you breath on it. I am a big fan of the MUM (Multi Use Monocular) for a mono NVD. Sam performance and reliability as the PVS-14 in a smaller, ligher...

    Rifle Scopes Larue Mount for Vortex. Size?

    Re: Larue Mount for Vortex. Size? +1 on the SPR-E. Used it on an Accupoint, as the standard SPR-1.5 did not give me enough eye relief without mounting the scope on the forearm rail.

    Rifle Scopes horus vision some say yes some say no

    Re: horus vision some say yes some say no I have used the Horus Talon on a couple AR platforms. The reticle is great. As has been said, adjusting the power ring is difficult and I was unable to find a cattail for this platform. Nice scope, never lost zero, great glass. I had no...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Elite 3200 vs Nikon Buckmaster 4.5-14x

    Re: Bushnell Elite 3200 vs Nikon Buckmaster 4.5-14x I have used the Bushnell 10x40 on a couple of rifles for paper punching at known distances as well. Great for an entry level training scope. Not so good for hunting as the field of view is relatively small for near shots. Here in South...

    Rifle Scopes Zeiss Hensoldt night vision NVS-80

    Re: Zeiss Hensoldt night vision NVS-80 I use a clip on NVD that mounts to the rail in front of my day scopes. The low end option is the ATN PS22-2 that you can get for about $1800. There have been reports of this NVD having recoil issues wherein one of the internal structures moves causing...

    DPMS LR-308

    Re: DPMS LR-308 Very nice! I purchased one off of the classifieds. Looking forward to trying out a semi-auto 7.62! My Rem700 is great, but the pigs run kind of quickly once that first shot goes out.

    dpms lr308 18" bull range report?

    Re: dpms lr308 18" bull range report? Looking into this rifle as well. I mostly hunt feral hogs at night out in the cornfields and canyons west of San Antonio. The LR-308L is appealing for the weight. Any thoughts on the entry level (Sportical) model? Thanks!
