    Rifle Scopes Best all around scope $1500

    Bushnell has quite an extensive line of optics. The HDMR, SMRS, LRS, and ERS lines are no Walmart exclusives, and neither are any of their Elite line. I'm not sure what constitutes cool to you, but Fully multi coated ED argon purged Japanese glass built and assembled in 30 & 34mm tubes with...

    Rifle Scopes Sightron *New* Custom Shop: Reticle, Turrets etc..

    Re: Sightron Custom Shop: Reticle, Turret & Parallax! They are stating that unfortunately they will not be able to switch reticles or turrets that are not offered in the current models mag range. So, no mil hash yet for the 6-24 it seems. I have a feeling they will come out with it once there...

    Chrome Moly Steel or Stainless steel Barrel

    Re: Chrome Moly Steel or Stainless steel Barrel Are you replacing a bolt action or gas rifle? Chrome Molly I believe is fairly common on AR's and the like. As I understand, the following trade off longevity~accuracy: Chrome Lined: Longest lasting/ process more likely to effect accuracy (less...

    Rifle Scopes We spoke and Warne listened... 34mm mount & more!

    Re: We spoke and Warne listened... 34mm mount & more! Another change I just noticed... I'm a little skeptical about the slots in the rings but I also just noticed that they did away with the one piece side rail. I know they were trying to shave weight on this one but the new baring surface...

    Rifle Scopes Looking at a 7moa aimpoint.

    Re: Looking at a 7moa aimpoint. Trijicon makes the large dot as well for their RMR, they have 7 & 13 moa in dot and triangles. Sounds good for a shotgun or some pistol applications. I guess it serves its purpose close quarters.

    Re: We spoke and Warne listened... 34mm mount & more! No, I don't believe there will be incline options unfortunately. I think it would be a nice offering... Well, if they'll go to the extent to produce everything in five different odors maybe if enough suggest they would consider it. They...

    Rifle Scopes Ah, There's my Reticle- Astigmatism: HD Glasses

    Re: Ah, There's my Reticle- Astigmatism These are the lenses I bought. It's unfortunate that the image uploading and posting had to be degraded. It went from 8 MP to less than 1 MP so quite a bit is lost. Even the view along the edges are nice. Obviously the image looks very different...

    Rifle Scopes Is the new bushnell tactical worth the money

    Re: Is the new bushnell tactical worth the money I'm a fan of the Elite Tactical line. I'm pretty excited about the new additions. Sounds like a miscommunication. I think someone above was referring to the Gen 2 HDMR 3.5-21 compared to the original 3.5-21, not the more beastly 4.5-30...
