    Rifle Scopes Sharp Focus at correct parallax?

    Re: Sharp Focus at correct parallax? I often find the ocular setting can be improved upon after the initial "white wall" or "cloudless sky" setting with sidefocus scopes. When aiming at a target 100-200 yds away or so, remove parallax completely. Then if the target and reticle are not...

    Rifle Scopes Frustrations with the Vortex 6-24x50 PST

    Re: Frustrations with the Vortex 6-24x50 PST Guys, This is normal for this scope when a lot of travel is dialed in. It is only noticeable at low powers. Most probably don't complain because they tend to use the scope at the higher powers most of the time and don't notice it. If you want...

    Re: SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more! OK, I was able to snap a few. They may not all be in as perfect focus as they could be but it should give you a good idea of the reticle: 10 Yards: Zoom backed off to show a more realistic view at the proper eye relief:

    Rifle Scopes Scope Mount for 338 LM

    Re: Scope Mount for 338 LM How far are you planning to shoot the rifle? If going for maximum distance, a 40 MOA or so base as has been suggested above is what you need. Keep in mind, however, you won't be able to get a 100 yd zero with that scope. So if you want to be able to zero at...

    Rifle Scopes Piggybacking an Aimpoint Micro on a Nightforce NSX

    Re: Piggybacking an Aimpoint Micro on a Nightforce NSX I'm sorry, I lost track of this. On that scope the outside diameter of the 42mm objective is actually about 50mm, so the difference is 50/2-30/2=10. Keep in mind the actual outside diameter of the 56mm NF is larger than 56mm (I can't...

    Rifle Scopes Piggybacking an Aimpoint Micro on a Nightforce NSX

    Re: Piggybacking an Aimpoint Micro on a Nightforce NSX Are you planning to mount it straight or offset? If offset, you won't want any spacers as you want the T1 as close to the tube as possible. As you can see on our pic rail ring: The rail is really close to the tube but a T1 has plenty...

    Rifle Scopes fixed or variable scope for low light performance

    Re: fixed or variable scope for low light performance If you're looking for a "bright view" and most of your shooting is done at relatively close range, a fixed scope can do quite well. They're also usually lighter than their variable counterparts and you can usually get better glass for...

    Rifle Scopes Light weight, close range scope for low light cond

    Re: Light weight, close range scope for low light cond The 1-6 SSHD illumination does a pretty good job for this sort of use, especially on 6X when the bright ring has disappeared, the illuminated lines in the center can be very dimly lit to keep from washing out the target and you still have...
