    Rifle Scopes S&B & Premier power struggle?

    Re: S&B & Premier power struggle? Are both parallax adjusted correctly? The S&B looks a LOT clearer than the Premier, FOV or not, you can clearly see a sharper and brighter image of the target at any magnification, whatever it may be. What matters more than that if you're trying to see a...

    Rifle Scopes Leica CRF 1600 in hand with short review

    Re: Leica CRF 1600 in hand with short review I think providing the other measurements is ideal, I want to know those things when I am shooting past 800m. The ballistics side of it was never going to see a lot of use IMO. I will be keen to get my hands on one when they arrive on our shores...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold bashing: is it trendy?

    Re: Leupold bashing: is it trendy? Leupold (Mk 4) are more than adequate for any job any rifle needs to do today. Military, civilian, reacreational, or otherwise... Any scope better than a Mk4 (roughly speaking) is just flashy for the sake of being flashy (but be assured some others are...

    Rifle Scopes Whats the advantage to FFP scopes

    Re: Whats the advantage to FFP scopes Thinking of a practical situation, where the targets move and time is a big factor, it saves extremely valuable seconds. The ideal state is FFP + mil retile + mil adjustment, that way at all magnificaitons, you can correct for a missed shot as soon as...

    Re: True "One Shot" Kills - Neck vs. Heart/Lung Shots Great thread. The shouler shot has always worked best for me. I try to break the front lets at the same time, and anchor the thing to the spot.

    Rifle Scopes Mil/Mil on a budget

    Re: Mil/Mil on a budget Spend more on a scope and get a cheap rifle, if possible. The scope is where the magic happens. If you can afford to save up for a bit longer, that would be the best. You can take any old mil/moa scope are remark the turrets with a bit of tape and a permanent marker...

    What can be expected from this barrel?

    Re: What can be expected from this barrel? I recognised that barrel from the crown, had the very same rifle. I gave mine a gentle lapping before I started shooting, the groups came out excellent in the end, back of the thumbnail stuff at 100m. I even shot the top of a little green soldier...

    Rifle Scopes Who Makes the best Glass???

    Re: Who Makes the best Glass??? It would seem, that any list ONLY looking at glass <span style="text-decoration: underline">quality</span> should focus on Europe and Japan. I am led to believe all other countries are <span style="font-style: italic">far</span> behind their level. A pretty...

    AICS stock weight?....first post!

    Re: AICS stock weight?....first post! Only Con is the weight if you are hunting and carrying a long way, but it's also a plus for recoil. They are a little awkward in the forest, if you try to take one stalking, but it can be done without too much trouble. One other thing, the SA mag is...

    Rifle Scopes Does anybody really use there Illumated retical.

    Re: Does anybody really use there Illumated retica Targets - no. Hunting - no. It makes it harder to see the target behind it in low light. I do most of my hunting right on dark, in the twilight, but I've never liked IR. Having a suitably thick reticle that's visible in low light would be a...

    Rifle Scopes FFP Mark 4 vs SFP Nightforce

    Re: FFP Mark 4 vs SFP Nightforce Before you get on to the brand, you mentioned FFP (or not)... If you're hunting with this rifle, and your getting a reticle with graduations, then I strongly suggest you get FFP or else you're just wasting your time with the reticle. If not, then SFP is all...

    Manners MCS-T1 or T4 ...more comfortable to carry?

    Re: Manners MCS-T1 or T4 ...more comfortable to carry? Sorry maths error (lbs to kgs) - it should be 7.9lbs. I weighed it yesterday, everything but the stock, and if the 90% Carbon Fibre MCS-T1 is the weight Manners quoted me, then it will be a total of 7.9lbs.
