    Rifle Scopes Arken Light Weight Hunting version

    So, looks like my Arken has to go back anyways. I was just checking the eyebox/relief and realized I never looked through this fully zoomed out, and noticed what I thought was a marker smudge on the glass. Turns out it looks like it's sealant or something smudged on the inside.

    Rifle Scopes Arken Light Weight Hunting version

    Still looking forward to hearing more about the Arken EPL4 but I ended up picking up a Bushnell Match Pro for $400(on sale right now, I believe non-illum is $50 cheaper) and all I can say is wow! If that EPL4 doesn't work out for you, I'd highly recommend the Match Pro. I got it so my CZ457...

    Parallax going in and out of focus? Athlon Cronus G2

    Thanks guys. Looked through it today and seemed fine. It's still cold but I had it off the gun. I was thinking mirage but we were at an indoor range(no climate control but they do have air recirc/vent for fumes)....but I did switch to a thin fluted barrel so that makes sense too. I'm just...

    Parallax going in and out of focus? Athlon Cronus G2

    Reticle was clear the whole time for both of us. It was the crosses on the target themselves that would be clear then blurry. But yeah, the fact that nothing on the scope was moving makes me reluctant to blame the scope. I guess I'll try again with different targets first.

    Parallax going in and out of focus? Athlon Cronus G2

    Noticed weird issue today at the range. Scope is a Athlon Cronus G2 on a Tikka and was shooting 100yds. Anyways, noticed at 100yd the target was going in/out of focus. I thought it was just my eyes as I wear glasses but my buddy noticed the same thing(15/20 vision). The target was a bunch of...

    Tikka T3 Thread

    That's what it looks like. Maybe gun identifies as a .223WSSM

    Are the fluted bolts serialized? If so, matches receiver?

    Rifle Scopes Bolt gun optics

    Those reticles make more sense in a spotter but even then they're super busy. Especially for hunting, I'd want something simpler. With that cartridge/build, a simpler reticle with good glass will make it easier to spot your shots.

    KRG Midas trigger

    Arbor press should work perfect fine; the housing was pretty soft(I'm guessing it's aluminum) so the pin came out very easy. Main thing I wish I would've done was fit the safety before reinstalling everything. Just throw the safety in there with that internal spring and make sure it functions...

    KRG Midas trigger

    Yes. Follower pin failed as the ends of the safety pins are tapered(basically spring still slipped/cocked). I think this is also due to there being so much room for the spring to move around. Push from the sticky side. Yes, I completely remove and reinsert from the other side. Here's pic of...

    KRG Midas trigger

    Quick follow-up...had to grind the safety a bit where it engages the sear mechanism. "Click" is gone and just to prove theory, I put the KRG safety on the T3x trigger group. Everything seems to work fine Also a note if someone else is attempting this: The safety spring post is ridged on the...

    KRG Midas trigger

    KRG Midas in left hand. Only issue right now is when you're engaging the safety, it feels like there's a middle position. I used the KRG spring so hopefully the stiffer Tikka spring will fix that.

    KRG Midas trigger

    I saw a Sako S20(single stage) trigger on eBay that they said works with the Tikka T3s, but I noticed the safety has an extra bar(haven't seen a TAC A1 trigger). If the 3-position mechanism is just that bar, I wonder if it's possible for someone to create an aftermarket version. Right now...

    KRG Midas trigger

    I have the Trigger Tech Diamond in my AR10, not sure how it compares to the bolt TT-Diamonds but I picked up the Midas after trying out my friend's Super Varmint. I figure the Midas is as close as I can get to that with a safety that can possibly be flipped.

    Tikka trigger design/mod

    Perfect. I'll try to document everything. All I know is reinstalling one of the springs is a PITA....still trying to figure out best way to do this.

    KRG Midas trigger

    Just wondering, which spring is it that you pulled out? The instructions define the 1st, 2nd, and overtravel screws...is it the one in front of the trigger?

    Tikka trigger design/mod

    I'm working on converting a KRG trigger to LH safety and was wondering if anyone knows how the pin/stud for the lever spring is fitting in the trigger. Can I press/punch it out or is there another hidden pin, screw, or spring that holds it in? Also, any tips on getting the spring that's...

    Arken Optics epl4 vs ep5

    Are you talking about the EP4L?There's already a thread on this and consensus is the EP5 glass is better than the EP4L. As far as the EP4, not sure if you're going to find as much info since it seems those were harder to get. My buddy has a 4-16 SH4; he looked through my EP5 and was very...

    KRG Midas trigger

    Just got my KRG Midas today, going to attempt swapping LH safety on there. Has anyone attempted this yet?

    Anybody have the new Primary Arms 5-25x56 Athena BPR?

    There's already a thread about the EP4L and so far, it seems that the EP5 still beats it out as far as IQ goes. If you can spend a little more, the Bushnell Pro Match ED has been getting really great reviews and the Vortex LHTs are worth a consideration at a higher price point.
