    Rifle Scopes Budget Build Tactical Rings, Mounts?

    +1 I've got TPS rings on two guns, steel 34mm on a bolt and alum 30mm high on a gas gun.. unbeatable value.

    Trackingpoint firearms are pretty dumb!!

    +1 I think Ayn Rand siad it best - "Reason is not automatic. Those who deny it cannot be conquered by it."

    You would think they would at least get some credit for using Surgeon rifles in AX chassis.. jeesh. ;p Also, they have a low-cost line coming out, as a stock Remington rifle, rumor has it the F5 milspec 300wm.

    Does anyone else keep getting logged off?

    This happening to anyone else.. what's the fix?

    Rumor has it they are introducing a low cost line not based on a surgeon in an AX chassis, but a remmy milspec 5R for well under $10K

    I couldnt agree more, in fact I used the car analogy in this other TP thread. :) http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/s4-sniper%92s-hide%AE-equipment/188300-tracking-point-thing-cool.html

    Good point, but by that logic a modern pilot shouldn't drop his ordnance, using this same type of optical tracking system, as it's just too risky.. instead they should go back to the Norden bombsight and wait for better daylight conditions? :)

    Yeah man, I know what you mean.. something like this happens between the 750 and 1000 yard berms when there is a quartering wind from L-R late in the afternoon at BOTW in Liberty Hill. I've seen it really stress very skilled shooters out. ;p

    I agree completely.. however you can change the wind (quickly I believe) in advanced mode. http://tracking-point.com/sites/default/files/Tracking-Point-Owners-Manual.pdf Also, in regards to the price, as i understand it they do have a low-cost model coming out that's not on a Surgeon in an...

    And that will always be cool. It's a skill to fall back on. I'm glad I learned how to do it manually, the hard way, with .25MOA knobs and cheap glass and a salvage bolt action and factory ammo :)

    I'll take that bet - if you want to wager whether they will be in business in a few years. I think this is just the beginning of something really interesting.

    I'm not disagreeing with you about the Cirrus argument, I've got a friend with one, but if he can feel safer flying - that's fine with me. If he can feel safer making a long shot - likewise - I am fine with that as well.

    It takes the wind into consideration, but there's no way to measure it at a distance that I know of. The company was founded by John McHale it talks briefly about the tank stuff here: John McHale, Chairman | TrackingPoint

    yes, I wont name any names but things happen, nobody is perfect. We've all seen it... dont be an ass.

    That was an early prototype, from more than a year and a half ago.

    tracking point, this thing is cool

    The shooter reads the wind, it does take that into effect. There's no reliable way to automatically read the wind unless you are standing at the target with a wind-meter, as well as one half way and one by you; at least not that I know of. Once you've guesstimated the wind correctly, it does...

    Yep, i agree.. that has to be also factored into the ROI for this as well, because load development takes time. That's something as a cloud solutions architect that travels all the time, with three little kids, and 2 side businesses I just don't have a lot of these days. My dad and I are...

    I've seen HIGHLY experienced marskmen gut-shoot game inside 300 yards on a powerline where the wind was calm. Shoot one, and see what you can do with it, and you may have a more favorable opinion of it. Or not, either way I like it and would appreciate it if I were trying to take down really...

    I was pointing out that these are the best drivers in the world, driving the most advanced machines on the planet.. and they benefit from technology as it makes them safer and faster... and about tech and cars, I remember growing up around a bunch of LE and they were all complaining about patrol...

    +1, that and extend the range. However I see guys with Kestral's EVERY time I'm at the 1K line at BOTW in Libery Hill and becuase of the way the range is laid out I see a lot of them read it wrong.. becuase they are reading it at the line, not taking what's going on past the 750 yard berm -...
