    Rifle Scopes Speed of LPVO vs Red Dot

    I am going to keep my RDS for another gun, but I'm going to go with an LPVO. It seems like there are too many advantages not to.

    AR10 - Build or Buy

    If you're just using it for hog hunting, you may be best off picking up a PSA. It will be cheap enough that you won't care if it gets dinged up, and it will be accurate enough to harvest hogs. There's really no need for a high dollar precision rig for your intended use.

    Who hunts with their large frame gasser?

    I hunt with my gasser, but definitely don't backpack with it. It's a 15 pound rifle, so not the best for that type of hunt.

    PRS Talk What happened to gas gun series?

    I'm hoping it catches on and maybe even added to the MOST series.

    Which rangefinder?

    I love my Leica. One of the primary things you have to consider with LRFs is beam divergence. Many focus on quality of glass, which is important too I suppose, but IMO beam divergence is more important.

    Rifle Scopes Are some leveling bubbles better than others?

    I just a cheap level to level the rifle and I level the retile of the scope with a plumb-bob. That's just what I do for mounting a scope, but it would be nice to have a good quality picatinny mount level to keep on the gun.

    Rifle Scopes Speed of LPVO vs Red Dot

    Thank you all for your input. It looks like I'll have to scoop up an LPVO after the holidays.

    Rifle Scopes Speed of LPVO vs Red Dot

    It's not for defense. My truck gun will have the Aimpoint on it and will always be on. The gun it will be going on is a 16" 5.56 that I will use for a variety of things. I was just trying to get an idea of what to expect with an LPVO.

    What DMR rifle means to you

    As far as "what rifle", it varies. The Armyhas used longer barreled M-16's designed for that role, to the M-110.

    What DMR rifle means to you

    Dmrs are typically semi-auto rifles designed to engage targets outside of the range of service rifles, but not quite out to the range of sniper rifles, even though some a capale of the same range.

    Night Vision PRICE DROP PVS-30 Refurbs @ EuroOptic

    I've never used one, but I'm feeling like I definitely need to pick one up. I've used plenty of PVS-14's. I know these are designed to use with a high power scope, but how do they work with a red dot?

    Rifle Scopes Speed of LPVO vs Red Dot

    I'm guessing I wouldn't be able to mount a PVS-14 behind an LPVO like I would a red dot. I may just have to pick up a PVS-30.

    Rifle Scopes Speed of LPVO vs Red Dot

    I've looked at the Trijicon as well. I'm weighing it against the Vortex.

    Rifle Scopes Speed of LPVO vs Red Dot

    I would probably just put the red dot on my truck gun, and put the LPVO on my AR as sort of a "do everything" gun. I was thinking hunting, target shooting, etc. I definitely would want a true 1x on the lower setting, as well as good quality glass.

    Rifle Scopes Speed of LPVO vs Red Dot

    I was wondering about the weight too. I know the Razors are typically heavy, so I figured a 1-6 would be heavier than and Aimpoint. I also noticed the Razor has brightness adjustment. Are the lower settings compatible with night vision?

    Rifle Scopes Speed of LPVO vs Red Dot

    I'm considering changing my Aimpoint Comp M4 to a Vortex Razor 1-6. I've read you can see the dot well in daylight with the Vortex. How much speed do you lose in target acquisition of a red dot vs LPVO on low setting? I'm thinking it would be just as fast as long as I train with it. My eyes...

    Suppressors YHM Resonator - why not?

    I have this one and it has been great. I have used it on my 5.56, .300 Blackout, .308, 6.5 Creed, and .300 Win mag. It functions great on all of them. http://www.jsesurplus.com/YHM30CalUltraLightTacticalw/YHM-4302-245/8x24-DiscontinuedSpecial.aspx
