    Rifle Scopes Vortex AR thread

    The 2.5-10x30 PST is in my opinion the perfect solution for an AR scope. Im waiting on funds to put it on my mk12 I have sitting around glass-less. Its a damn shame. But a TON of people think the vortex 2.5-10 is quite possibly their best scope they have ever released.

    You can't really run a 12th model on a 10" barrel though. That collar would be behind the gas block lol.

    S12A, yeah, so far I like it but I haven't even been out to the range with it. Maybe today is the day though! I'm happy with my choice. TRTAC, see post 36, I went with a Timney and m40 contour. It is a tank... weighs in at 15lbs ready to hunt but it is gonna be backpacked in my...

    My .243AI Build Sheet

    Hey thanks! Its come along well. I'm not sure what I think of the Vortex yet, haven't gotten it to the range yet... although that may happen tomorrow with barrel break in! How'd you blow the picture up... I know there's a way just never been able to fiddle with it and get it right.

    WTB .243 Ackley Improved dummy rounds

    I am in the process of building a 243 ackley and we (my gunsmith and I) both agree we should have a couple non-primered/powdered rounds to determine a few factors like feeding and chamber throat. I really plan to shoot 105gr bergers out of this custom Remington and was wondering if anyone out...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST vs. Leupold Mk 4.

    I understand where you are coming from but the 4-16 has known fuzzy glass issues and is far inferior to the 6-24, 2 power on the bottom end is hardly a reason to go for lesser power.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST vs. Leupold Mk 4.

    That is too bad they didnt hold up their end of the deal and make it right... Ya that is not the case with this vortex, the illumination helped a ton once it was 30 minutes after shooting hours. AKA the end of hunting time for the day. The leupold reticle was hard to see and not as clear...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST vs. Leupold Mk 4.

    I agree that it is a lil hard to focus at 24 power but then again it is with high end spotting scopes at their max power unless you get a perfect hold. For the money nothing compares, the ZS is pretty lame I have to admit. But for 850$ I will not complain. I didn't need 24 power, only wanted...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST vs. Leupold Mk 4.

    I went with the Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50 FFP and I am very impressed. It isnt mounted yet but at 24x power I can read 4" print on a port-a-potty at 679yds out my front window. At 447yds I can read the truck number of a Knife River Construction truck... Side by side to my Leupold Mark 4...

    Rifle Scopes Question for Vortex Viper PST Owners

    The 4-16 PST is known for having fuzzy glass, from what ive heard Vortex even claims its a known issue. Unfortunately they havent done anything about it either which is disappointing since they have exceptional CS. I have heard that is THEE only PST that has such issues. My 6-24x50 PST is...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST vs. Leupold Mk 4.

    What about early in the morning when you catch a predator such as a coyote out early searching for food? There's that situation. I dont feel that 2 power is much enough of a difference. Most times you're presented with a longer shot rather then a shorter shot. I appreciate your input though...

    Rifle Scopes Looking at an Razor HD 5-20x50 or Viper PST 6-24x50

    Vortex is a great company, the Razor HD is on a whole different level and I agree with the cry once buy once mentality however I cant afford to cry just once lol and you wont cry with either. The PST is well worth the money, I asked a thread similar only compared Leupold Mark 4s vs the PST and...

    Rifle Scopes Cheap scope wanted for a ar-15 need opinions

    Vortex viper for sure. Ignore the posts about fixed power scopes. Especially at 10x. That's a shit load of power and if ur gonna use it for hunting at all its going to be next to useless.

    Lets see those tactical 22s!

    What brand of ammo were you using? Seems I'm having trouble with it not liking to load from the magazine on the first round with the charging handle
