    Rifle Scopes Totally disgusted with Leupold

    Re: Totally disgusted with Leupold I'v been done with Leupold for a few years new. I used to like them because the glass was ok, they were priced fair, and they were the lightest scope going and didn't add alot of weight to the rifle. Now that the price is pushing up to withing a few hundred...

    Rifle Scopes Which red dot is best?

    Re: Which red dot is best? Aimpoint all the way! I'v had a few Eotechs but got rif of them, they wash out in bright light to easy for me. I'd rather search for the target, not my retical. Aimpoint is always there, and the batt. last for years. If money is really tight, (and you can't find a...

    Rifle Scopes AR Scope Choice 0-400yds

    Re: AR Scope Choice 0-400yds This little IOR 3x scope work's very nice out to around 400 yards, great glass. http://www.valdada.com/product/40e3b604-7044-4532-b71d-93037f0e8166.aspx The ACOG 4x TA01 is great, but a little strong for CQB work for me. 30 yards to 500 it shine's! The Leupold...

    Rifle Scopes M4 AR-15 Best Optics

    Re: M4 AR-15 Best Optics I would go with the new IOR "Pitbull" 1&4x or something like it. The Leupold 1.5-5x Mark 4 SPR isn't bad for the money. If money isn't a problem USO SN-4 1.5-6x is very nice. This type of scope will let you shoot from CQB to 5-600 yards, the reddot sight's are really...

    Rifle Scopes C-More ARW

    Re: C-More ARW The ONLY sight like that I would use, esp. on a rifle that may someday save my life, is an Aimpoint. I'v tried them all, and the only one that consistently work's great and can be seen in any light is the Aimpoint. EOTech's wash out in bright light, some of the open unit's...

    Rifle Scopes Rings or base for Ruger M77?

    Re: Rings or base for Ruger M77? I remember seeing a rail that went on a Ruger along time ago. It may have been for the Mini-14, (that's what I had at the time) it was a piece of either Pic. or Weaver rail about 5" long that mounted in the two scope ring notch's of a Ruger rifle. I can't for...

    Rifle Scopes Thermal Weapon Sight

    Re: Thermal Weapon Sight Elcan makes a nice one, but your looking at $12,000 They are all in the $10,000 + range for now, but like you said as technology progresses, hopefully prices will come down. I'd like one myself.

    .221 Fireball

    Re: .221 Fireball The best thing to do with a .221 fireball is to turn it into a .300 Whisper.

    Remington 700 SPS Tactical

    Re: Remington 700 SPS Tactical I think the SPS-T is one of the best deals in a tactical rifle anywhere. The price is great, and allow's just about anyone to get into LR shooting without buying junk. This is a rifle that works very well out of the box but can also grow with the shooter. It...

    Rifle Scopes Kowa Spotting Scopes

    Re: Kowa Spotting Scopes Dollar for dollar Kowa is the best spotting scope I'v ever tried. I sure wouldn't put them in the same class as Bushnell or Sightron, not even close. The std. glass is the best bang for the buck, but the ED glass is probably worth spending the money if your really...

    Rifle Scopes acog ????????????

    Re: acog ???????????? I'm the opposite, I don't like the donut at all. To me it seems like a great CQB sight, but thats it. The green horseshoe ret. in the TA31 looks good, giving you the best of both worlds, and some of the Chevron ret. look ok. But my favorite is still the TA01 w/ BDC & red...

    Rifle Scopes 1-4 Power Adjustable Optic

    Re: 1-4 Power Adjustable Optic This is another good AR scope, at least it should be, I'v never played with one so I can't say for sure. I really like this type of scope though, it's just 1x or 4x, which is all you really need. IOR glass is outstanding...

    Rifle Scopes Had to come off the high horse

    Re: Had to come off the high horse Nothing wrong with the SPS, I had a .308 one and at 100 yards it shot 3/8" groups. (That new trigger is sweet.) As for the glass, thats a tough price range. The ONLY thing I would buy would be a Zeiss Conquest. You will most likely have a better sight...

    subsonic 338

    Re: subsonic 338 There is also the .338 Whisper which works great in gun's set up for .308 (Rem. 700, AR-10, etc.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.338_Whisper http://www.quarterbore.com/300whisper/sskwhisper.html

    LMT vs. LWRC?

    Re: LMT vs. LWRC? I am aware of the way the monolithic upper work's vs. the std. one with a rail system. I do like the ruggedness of the mono unit, and the fact that you can just pull the piston out of the front of it. However, I'm OK with the std. type with a good rugged rail forarm. I never...

    LMT vs. LWRC?

    Re: LMT vs. LWRC? Thanks everyone! I didn't know that LWRC had an adj. gas block, is it just on & off or are there setting's for hot ammo, weak ammo and suppressed? (I thought they were self regulating.) I was hoping they had a true mid length gas system also. Two very nice LWRC rifles I saw...
