    Rifle Scopes Nightforce VS. IOR

    The only reason I would choose an optic that had a 35mm tube would be if it just had a ridiculous amount of internal adjustment. The IOR with a 35mm tube has a same amount of adjustment as a Vortex PST with a 30mm tube. So I really see no value in its additional size a weight. The optic...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce VS. IOR

    In your price range, just about anything from Vortex, Bushnell, NF, Steiner, Burris will perform well for you. IOR has a bit of a mixed history. What specifically draws your attention to the IOR?

    Rifle Scopes LRHS opinions

    If you talk to the right people, you can get into a 4-18 LRTS for around $1200, especially if you are okay without the Illumination. The XTR2 is still a great option and below your price point, just be aware the glass may not be on par with your LRHS. Good thing about the XTR2 is there are a...

    Cadex Strike Nuke chassis, J Allen killer?

    For a few reasons really. I already own (3) of the factory CTR mags and I love them. 10rd double stack single feed mags have a much lower profile than the 10rd AICS mag, are very strudy, and I have yet to have an issue with them feeding anything. To me the AI mags do not really provide a...

    Cadex Strike Nuke chassis, J Allen killer?

    I would love to have a Cadex stock of some variety, but I have a problem with paying a $143 premium to have it fit my Tikka. Shawn if you guys made this thing (Strike Nuke) for a Tikka that would accept the factory CTR mags (I wish more companies would do this) I couldnt give you my money fast...

    Rifle Scopes LRHS opinions

    Any thoughts on budget? You mention the Gen1 Razor (Great optic), so Im assuming your budget is <$2k? We had a good thread going on the Scout hide about preferred scopes from $500-$1000, $1000-$2000, etc. We need to get that one going over here again.

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell DMRIIi impressions

    I was at the Bushnell factory outlet in KC this weekend and they had an HDMRII in the case, maybe more in back of house. They also had a pile of DMRII & DMRII-i's. I walked out with a DMRII-i and I am super happy with it.

    Rifle Scopes LRHS opinions

    Going from the LRHS to the XTR2 would not be an upgrade. Not really knocking the XTR2, it has great value for the features it provides, but the glass in the LRHS & LRTS is at a higher level. The LRTS & LRTS-i will get you exposed (locking) windage turrets and an illuminated reticle in the "i"...

    Rifle Scopes Question about adjusting diopter for scopes with no parallax adjustment

    That sounds funky. You may want to contact Trijicon as something may be out of adjustment. On every scope I own, once I set the diopter I rarely ever touch it again, regardless of magnification.

    Rifle Scopes Question about adjusting diopter for scopes with no parallax adjustment

    Have you tried adjusting the diopter to be true at Max magnification? In general, you should always set a scope at max mag to determine the optics position on the rifle and for setting the diopter since its always the most sensitive position. Have you adjusted the optics position on the rifle...

    Just picked up a Tikka T3x TAC A1 in 6.5CM

    There was no indication from Tikka of a barrel nut provided on this rifle. However, Tikka doesn't provide a whole lot of information on their products at all, so I was curious. From what Depolorable is describing it sounds like its their barreled action with a "clamp on" nut for the attachment...

    Rifle Scopes Need recommendations

    With a $500 Im sure aware you will need to make some compromises on what features are provided with the scope. For hunting optics I prefer a pretty generous low magnification field of view, so I usually recommend an optic with 3-4x on the low end. This isnt always the case, but generally a...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST Gen II

    Depends on which XTR you're talking about. I have only looked through the XTR2 4-20 & 5-25, but they were only in-store (out the window) and not mounted on rifles at a range. I have not looked through the 5-25 PST2, but if it performs as well as the 3-15 it will be a real home run. If I were...

    Rifle Scopes Need advice on scope for new tikka T3x CTR in 6.5 creedmoor

    If you can reasonably afford it ( i.e.- not selling children) you will not be disappointed by the 3-18 Razor. However, I would like to go back on my previous comment. I spent some time with the SHV and a 3-15 PST2 this past weekend, and I have to say the PST2 gave the SHV a serious run for its...

    Rifle Scopes Total Adjustment???????

    You could stack a 20MOA mount with a 20MOA base, but it could potentially 'top out' that scope so to speak to the point where you may not be able to get a 100yd zero. Give us some more info on your mounting set up. Does the RPR have a 20MOA rail from the factory? What rings/mounts are you...

    Rifle Scopes Total Adjustment???????

    If I understand you correctly, you are saying that after zeroing the scope you only have 16.5 MILs of adjustment. If so, that's pretty normal. The 26.2 Mils of elevation is the TOTAL from top to bottom. Theoretically if your scope zeroed for your rifle was in the exact center of the scopes...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST Gen II

    So I got to play around a little with an FFP/MOA 3-15x this past weekend and I have to say I was extremely impressed. I own the G1 4-16 PST and everything I don't like about that optic has been resolved in the G2 3-15. One thing Im really picky about is eyebox sensitivity at max magnification...

    Rifle Scopes Lens caps/covers NF SHV F1

    ^^^This if you're will to spend the money. If not, the Vortex Defender caps have been working very well for me. I have them on three different scopes, only one of which is a vortex.
