    Rifle Scopes Mil dot tracking

    Rifle Scopes HDMR 3-21 or IOR 3.5-18 SH

    Re: HDMR 3-21 or IOR 3.5-18 SH I'm not digging the Razor. I think the knobs are too high and it is about $500 over budget. I am leaning toward the IOR because of the 42 mm objective, my barrel is a Kreiger Rem Var contour and I might go with the manners mcs-t. This build is going to be a...

    Rifle Scopes HDMR 3-21 or IOR 3.5-18 SH

    .243 with 95 grain VLD load data needed

    Re: .243 with 95 grain VLD load data needed Thanks for the info guys! I will try some of these powder next weekend. One last question, how far off the lands are you seating the 95 VLD's? If I go .01 off they wont fit in my mag. If I switch to a dbm they will barely fit.

    Rifle Scopes NF or SWFA scope??

    Re: NF or SWFA scope?? I know I will be flamed here for saying the following, but I will share my OPINION anyway... FWIW, I saved all my pennies for some time and upgraded to a NF NXS from a Mark 4. I felt the quality of the NF glass was on par with some very inexpensive hunting scopes I had...
