    Precision Rifle Gear OPS-CORE NFMI plugs only

    Those orange 3M 1100s sound like what I need.

    Tangent 5-25 or new Schmidt 6-36

    I spoke to Ilya about the outer portion of the reticle on my M7Xi that exhibited the same thing. He said it's common for FFP scopes with high erector ratios and wide FOV. Maybe @koshkin can educate us a little more on it. I didn't notice a loss if image quality with the M7 on low mag, just a...

    @wooferocau Do you still have your 3-27 and 5-45 Schmidts? I wasn't clear if you replaced or returned them. If you can recall, after adjusting the diopter, was the entire reticle sharply in focus at low magnification on these scopes?

    Precision Rifle Gear OPS-CORE NFMI plugs only

    That's good to know. I'll stay away from the ops core stuff.

    Precision Rifle Gear OPS-CORE NFMI plugs only

    I'll give them a try. Do you like the regular Flents or the "quiet contour" ones?

    Precision Rifle Gear OPS-CORE NFMI plugs only

    I lost a Howard Leight MAX foamie in my ear canal once. That was painful. I do try to insert them so that the flange just barely sticks out.

    Precision Rifle Gear 2022 Hearing Protection - Which Ones???

    I've tried the Sordins and Comtac Vs. Neither will protect your hearing from braked rifles without earplugs underneath. The Sordins were worse and didn't offer much protection. I'm moving back to passive muffs with the gel seals and plugs underneath. I'd be very in impressed if your AMPs are...

    Tangent 5-25 or new Schmidt 6-36

    Which reticle did you choose in your S&B 6-36? Great info about the ZCOs.

    Tangent 5-25 or new Schmidt 6-36

    Regarding adjusting the diopter: I've struggled with this as well. Using "parallax at infinity and look at a clear blue sky and blank wall" has never worked well for me either for the same reason you mentioned. If you get the chance, try adjusting your diopter at night, inside of your house in...

    Precision Rifle Gear OPS-CORE NFMI plugs only

    Has anyone tried the plugs only under earmuffs? I'm not willing to spend 1k on their earmuffs. Currently using Comtac Vs with fomies underneath. Ears will still ring if plugs aren't touching my brain. I'm wondering if the ops core would be better.

    Wow, I think I need to get a job like yours. Good on you. Let us know which is best.

    Rifle Scopes Minox zp5

    Mine are good to go. I thought something was wrong once, but it turns out one of the cap set screws wasn't fully tightened and was allowing the cap to slip. My turrets feel and sound are also excellent.

    I do a lot of shooting between 10x and 15x. Do you have any issues seeing the subtensions on TT between 10x and 15x?

    Tangent 5-25 or new Schmidt 6-36

    Im leaning towards the Schmidt right now, I prefer their reticles. The P5FL looks a lot better than the JTAC. On the P5, the half and whole mil marks were kept long which makes no dial stages easier. And the JTAC main line thickness is only .025 mils. In my opinion, those reticles .2 mil hash...
