    Rifle Scopes New Mil-C NF on the way!!

    I think I remember someone in Palmetto's post saying that NF was going to offer a reticle swap in the near future for guys who have the MIL-R. The price was something like $600 which is a better deal to me than selling your current scope at a loss, and then purchasing a new one.

    Rifle Scopes New Mil-C NF on the way!!

    The Mil-R was the only thing keeping me from owning an ATACR over my Vortex. When I saw Palmetto's post about this new NF reticle I sold my AMG as quick as I could. I have shot the new Mil-C twice now.. just out to 830yds and I am in love!

    Rifle Scopes Observations & Questions from a Newb

    Agreed, the Optics Classifieds in the PX here on The Hide is a great place to deal. Consider buying used here and you'll get an even better deal. Also, take a trip out to your local range - especially if they host PRS or Practical Rifle matches. Guys out there will at the very least let you...

    Rifle Scopes Observations & Questions from a Newb

    There are some good deals to be had by SH vendors and others. These deals make it a little easier to buy something like an ATACR and then re-sell if you don't like it. There's a recent thread in this sub forum on deals for ATACRs that is $300 off of retail. I'm sure you could recoup your cost if...

    Rifle Scopes Best deal on NF ATACR?

    Sport Optics gave me $300 off retail for the ATACR F1 5-25 in the new Mil C reticle and I'm in love! Couldn't find that reticle in stock anywhere else.

    Rifle Scopes NF NXS compared to Vortex AMG

    I've been a Vortex fanboy for a while, but I don't own a Gen 2. I've shot one side by side to the AMG I owned, and for steel and comps - Gen 2 would have been my choice easily. Had I been putting the AMG on a hunting rifle, I may have been satisfied with it, but I couldn't get over the "eye...

    Kestrel FW Update 1.13

    I could be wrong, but I think you need to be sure to update the app on your phone before the Kestrel will update.

    Labradar not working with supressor

    I forgot when I shot 300 blackout suppressed to switch the LR over to "handgun" mode because I was shooting subsonics. If that's the case - that'll do it.

    Rifle Scopes NF Mil-C Reticle Pics Through Scope

    Thanks! I think I'm going to convert my second AMG into one of these instead of mounting it.

    Dealer Delays

    Yeah... I'm with Ghengis here. Did you just want to let us know that you are going through something - but don't want to tell us anything about it? Strange story.. and if you aren't even sure he's going to ship you an expensive action, but you ordered something else from him - I wouldn't...

    Rifle Scopes First Vortex PST GII failure report in SH (FIXED BY VORTEX)

    How tight were your rings? Over tightening rings can cause tracking issues that seem erratic. I think Vortex only recommends something like 15-18 inch pounds for rings.

    Why Ballistic Calibration Should Only Be Performed In the Field

    Thanks, Doc. Got everything figured out- turned out to be a scope issue.

    Kestrel w/link vs. without -- should I save money

    The 5700 is set up for firmware updates that are fairly easy to do with the Link feature. They are still working all the kinks out of the 5700, personally I don't seen anything coming out soon that would phase out the 5700.

    V3 or Lab radar

    If you're thinking about the trade up - you'd likely get a lot more money for selling a new V3 here than trading up. I was was worried about the Gen 2 coming out right after I got mine and the general consensus was that they would be updating the firmware rather than hardware for quite some time.

    Kestrel w/link vs. without -- should I save money

    I had to save an extra month for Link, and I'm glad I did. I've never once wished I saved the money.
