    Pupil of the Art of the Tactical Rifle Dot ORG *Video*

    A real operator would have had his NV on his helmet...as long as it took you to walk to that target it's likely you walked back in the dark!!

    Is a $600 pair of binos worth it?

    I have some Leica 10x42's but this year I bought my wife a set up Vortex Viper HD's in the same power. I used the Viper's some to compare the two and I was very impressed by them. Not once was I thinking that the image was substandard and I had to look through the Leica's to get a better view...

    WARNING ~ TR ~ My experience

    Due to the recent events that we're all aware of (aka, Frank and Marc getting sued), I searched for some tacticalrifles.net reviews and stumbled across this one that had me in stitches. I'll leave you with these two small tidbits, but urge you to read the whole review and see if you think...

    Conundrum Picking It A New Spotting Scope

    Without a doubt, go with the Viper HD. The 11-33 Razor is nice if you're hiking 10 miles with it, but it's far from ideal for range work. It's small, when you go down in size you give up stuff like exit pupil, eye relief, ease of use, etc. I've owned them all and for that price range and the...

    18.5 or 20" barrel delima

    Keep it at 20"? If it's already at 20 then don't spend the time and money to whack 1.5" off, just run it as is.

    Rifle Scopes S&B 3-27x56 worth the extra coin?

    Don't forget the new Vortex 3-27 at $3k msrp and 33mils of elevation I believe. Heavy scope, but looked promising at SHOT. I'll be getting one to play with for sure!!

    Range Report .243 Remington

    Email Berger. They will email you load data for your bullet and powder combo. I've found their numbers are realistic, if they say max load then approach it with caution. Not like some manufacturers who's max load is padded by the attorneys.

    Hunting & Fishing Do I really need a .300 Win Mag or will .30-06 be fine?

    Lots of opinions here, but I'll give you the one that counts....mine :) I've shot at least 2 elk and 2 deer at over 500 yards....all 4 in Colorado...about 8,000 ft. A moose too, but in WA state and no where near 8,000 ft. So, here's my take. Yes, you can kill anything in North America with...

    Rifle Scopes I have 8-900 to spend on a capped turret hunting scope

    I'm sure the Z3 is nice, but for the money the Leupold is hard to beat, especially with only shooting 200-300 yards. I've shot a few animals at 500+ with my old 3-10 VX3's, one with an M1 knob, one with standard scope knobs. The 3-10 Leupold's have an $80 rebate right now, if hunting in low...

    Vortex Razor 20-60 VS Leupold Gold Ring 20-40

    Standard. Wasn't so much the glass quality as the eye relief, exit pupil, eyebox...whatever. Just a pain in the ass to use. I have an Angled Vortex Viper HD 15-45x65 Angled I'll make you a deal on if you want something smaller than the big razor for the field. J

    Vortex Razor 20-60 VS Leupold Gold Ring 20-40

    Vortex is the right call. Try to borrow the Leupold before you invest in one, I wasn't that impressed with mine and sold it shortly after my first week long hunt with it.
