    Rifle Scopes 1/8 minute scopes

    I love your attitude and I appreciate you staying civil in this discussion. This quality can be rare on this forum at times and I for one, appreciate it when I encounter it. I have been shooting competitively for over 40 years; shot my first Fullbore match in 1981 and I was hooked. Fullbore...

    Rifle Scopes March 1.5-15x42 inquiry

    It appears you are correct. The March website now clearly states the DR-TR2 reticle has been discontinued and that it has been replaced by the DR-TR2B and that all new production models of the 1.5-15X42 DR will have the new reticle. https://marchscopes.com/scopes/d15v42fdimlx/

    Rifle Scopes 1/8 minute scopes

    After seeing more information about your requirements, I feel confident in saying "you're crazy, you would never use the fine adjustments of the 1/8-minute." I think you were trying to say that the 1/4-minute adjustments were too coarse ("to course.") I will say that at 25X as your top end, in...

    Rifle Scopes 1/8 minute scopes

    What kind of magnification are you looking for? Also, since this is sling, you probably want 30 oz or less. What price range?

    How’s the new Tangent Theta 7-35?

    Which "march 10-60" do you have?

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 7-35

    Of course. And I was not even thinking about the TT 7-35 for F-class. in any way shape of form. I was responding to general observations and statements from Glassaholic, and that's why I quoted his statements specifically. I apologize for the side-tracking. Carry on.

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 7-35

    Great response. I just want to respond to the paragraph above. I included your last line as a reminder, because it's so important. Let me try to unconfuse you. What I was trying to convey is that while all riflescopes will have their IQ degraded by the mirage, this occurs at different rates...

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 7-35

    I appreciate your point of view expressed above and I wanted to give an alternate view from my vantage point as a long time F-class competitor. I have dabbled in PRS, but at my age, it's not something for which I am suited. After reading you post, let's just stipulate that you have never shot...

    If the manufacturer was listening, what realistic thing would you change about your favorite optic?

    Oh, I hope not. I would hate to give up my March Majesta (8-80X56). I've been having too much fun at 80X on the 1000 yard F-class target.

    If the manufacturer was listening, what realistic thing would you change about your favorite optic?

    Yeah, I'm not keen on push-pull locking turrets. You can't tell by looking at them and it's quite a big movement and can occur by happenstance. I'm a big fan of the shuriken locks on the March. You can tell by looking at them and it's really a conscious decision to lock/unlock, simple to...

    Kowa TSN 884 or Minox MD 80ZR Spotting scope

    This is the cover I selected for my Kowa 883. It's a fitted neoprene cover and I keep it on the spotter at all times for its protection. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=kowa%20neoprene%20case%20for%20tsn-88a%20spotting%20scope&N=0&In

    Kowa TSN 884 or Minox MD 80ZR Spotting scope

    Wrong spotting scope and crappy cover. No soup for you.

    Kowa TSN 884 or Minox MD 80ZR Spotting scope

    I went to Creedmoor Sports to see about this fabled protective cover that is supposedly better than the fitted neoprene Kowa cover. Couldn't find it.

    If the manufacturer was listening, what realistic thing would you change about your favorite optic?

    I co-designed the FML-PDK and FML-LDK reticles over 4 years ago with a friend, who is a long time PRS competitor. We started from a clean sheet, and he worked out the Christmas tree, while I concentrated on the stadia crosshairs. The two were designed to complement each other in the PDK...

    Optic Comparison - What am I seeing?

    I have been using a 4K TV as a monitor for 6+ years now. Just connect it using HDMI. I've upgraded the TV over time and my laptop now has two 4k monitors connected to it both running at 60Hz. My main monitor is a 49 inch Samsung and it's nice to have spreadsheets with a hundred columns or...

    Optic Comparison - What am I seeing?

    Yeah, close enough to each other. Not sure that I can explain the extra difficulty getting behind door #2. It's pretty subjective at this point. Well, we covered brightness and DOF, the rest is differences in overall design and what choices the engineers made.

    Optic Comparison - What am I seeing?

    Ok. From that, I would think the F number on #1 is smaller (bigger aperture) than #2. This would make #1 appear brighter but with a smaller DOF compared to #2. I don't know about eyebox, that may be a function of the eyepiece itself. Do you know the respective diameter of the eyepieces? Do...

    Optic Comparison - What am I seeing?

    Understood. What is the overall length for the riflescopes?

    Maybe provide the specs for each scope and the power setting you were using?
