    Rifle Scopes New Kahles, Steiner, Vortex G2, or ??

    all 3 are nice scopes, my recommendation would be put your eye behind each and see which you like best. different eyes see and perceive things differently. as for your concern with issues, I can't say with the vortex, because we haven't gotten them in yet, though I have no doubt they will...

    Rifle Scopes Lapping Cheaper Scope Rings

    honestly, I'd rather buy a set of quality rings and not worry about it. since I've been working here I've never had to do any lapping. I just advocate getting quality mounts. but to answer the question, another huge difference in cheaper scope rings vs expensive ones is the material. cheap...

    what kind of hunting are you going to be doing? out of the two mentioned, the zeiss is the better choice, optically, and you can get it with target turrets, but a high magnification scope like that is going to have some draw backs, such as not having as much adjustment, poor performance in lower...

    Rifle Scopes Scopes don't always have to be as low as possible

    people do get hung up on mounting a scope low. I try to preach more comfort, which happens to often mean getting a scope low, but on an ar or an accuracy international, Barrett, or a number of other rifles, the opposite is true, you want to get the scope high to get into a comfortable position...

    Rifle Scopes MIL or MOA Reticle

    I play with both, if you plan on taking classes, I would see what said class recommends, most are former military, so they like the mil system. if your just shooting on your own, i'd play with both and see what you like better.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor 1x6 lack of FFP an issue?

    this is spot on, on low magnification, ffp can be unusable, plus if your shooting any kind of distance your going to be a full magnification. people get too hung up on ffp.
