    Rifle Scopes Vortex strike eagle 5-25 ffp

    This scope has my attention. The features/specs of this scope give it the potential to be a solid bang for the buck. Hopefully the roll out of this optic won't keep us waiting a long time to get them in hand.

    Rifle Scopes F3R MACHINE

    I have 4 of these mounts, excellent mounts for a great price. I'll likely buy more of them in the future as I need them, as well as accessories that will become available.

    Rifle Scopes Help me choose an optic

    You could try out the Crimson Trace CTL5324-02 from Midway USA. They are on a good sale right now, and if you buy something extra to push your Crimson Trace purchase amount over $1000, you can get $200 back. So the scope would end up being $750, plus another $50 extra that you buy. It's a solid...

    Rifle Scopes Tier One versus Spuhr

    The other height mounts are in the works. This company is still new, and is producing products as fast as it can. The 1.25" mount is an odd size, but it's perfect for AR platform rifles since there's no need for a cheek riser. The 1.50" (or close to) mounts are only common because of iron...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Nitro 4-16×42mm (Parallax Issues)

    I bought a 6-24x when they were on rebate, and I sent it back because of the parallax. I could focus well inside of 200 yds, but past that I was out of adjustment. On the other hand, I also bought a couple forge scopes and they are great scopes. For the money I've never had another scope come...

    Rifle Scopes Tier One versus Spuhr

    I have 4 of the F3R Machine mounts, 1 Sphur mount, as well several other mounts. The Sphur mount is a very high quality mount, and I can't complain about anything with it. The F3R Machine mounts are half the price of the Sphur, and are 98% of the quality. There are a few things I'd change if my...

    Rifle Scopes Crimson Trace 3-24 5 series

    Small update, I spent some more time with the scope yesterday evening. I like the scope overall, but I was having some trouble with the focus of the reticle and parallax. The reticle would only have partial focus, and as I changed the magnification it would change the focus. This also was...

    Rifle Scopes Crimson Trace 3-24 5 series

    I received the CTL5324-02 (non illuminated) today. I've only briefly been able to look it over, but my initial impressions are favorable. The image quality is very good, and the controls are smooth. One thing that I haven't found mentioned is that this model has a windage stop, limiting it to...

    Rifle Scopes Crimson Trace 3-24 5 series

    Thanks for your thoughts on this. Do you feel that the dots are bigger than you'd like them to be? CT has the dots spec'd at 0.1 Mil, which I believe to be 0.36" at 100yds. I know a lot of other PRS/competition type reticles are often are a bit thinner such as the MSR that is 0.05" mil, so 0.18"...

    Rifle Scopes Crimson Trace 3-24 5 series

    I purchase this scope, and it should be arriving on Wednesday. One thing to consider with this scope and rebate promotion if I understand correctly, if you buy any of the qualifying CT products they add together to reach the different rebate amounts. So if you add on enough to cross the $1000...

    What scope do you have on your 22?

    Have you compared your Tract Toric UHD to other optics? I'm interested in this scope for one of my rifles and it's very intriguing to me.

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Forge

    I played with one of the 4.5-27x models, it was a nice scope as far as I could tell. The turrets were nice and the glass seemed to be clear and sharp. It seemed to have a better image than the Leupold vx3i lrp I compared it to. This was inside of a store, so it's hard to give a definitive...

    Rifle Scopes So, what about Leupold Mark 5 ?

    Thanks for the review Bill. Your article is well done and informative, hopefully we will be offered more review like this in the future.

    Rifle Scopes New Trijicon AccuPower 4.5-30x56

    That's a valid point about Nikon's ability to create an incredible optic, but the unfortunate part is that sport optics for them is small peanuts compared to the rest of their endeavors. Since the sport optics division isn't able to expand and innovate as much as they could, it caused a couple...

    Rifle Scopes Tract toric uhd

    Wjm308, I have also been curious of how the Toric compares optically to other known scopes in it's respective price level, your insights are appreciated The Toric seems to offer great glass for the price point, but how would the Toric compare to more expensive scopes like the SSHD 5-20, Mark 5...

    Rifle Scopes Mark 5 vs Cronus BTR

    One thing I just thought of to help with your decision is the low light capabilities of the scopes. I know the mk 5 will win in low light over the athlon. Leupold is known for the low light performance of their optics.

    Rifle Scopes Mark 5 vs Cronus BTR

    I believe eurooptic is offering 13% off Leupold scopes right now, so it would be $1740 for the TMR.
