    Rifle Scopes 34mm showdown

    Yeah I would have expected the MPO and Optika 6 to be flipped.... I'm putting in an order for an MPO on the 1st. Kept going back and forth with the Optika but the fact that it's from Brownells and @Shooter McGavin giving some good comparisons helped me make my decision. I feel like you are...

    Rifle Scopes 34mm showdown

    Lots of votes for the Optika 6. Where does it gain advantage over the other options?

    Rifle Scopes Brownell's 5-25x56 MPO is finally in stock!

    @Shooter McGavin What brand and height are those rings? It's looking good! Oh, and how much total elevation are you getting and did you look at it next to the razor yet?

    Rifle Scopes $1000 scope to shoot 1000 yards need help

    I'm currently trying to decide between the Brownells MPO (5-25x56) and the Meopta Optika 6 (5-30x56). Those are 2 of the new kids on the block and come in at $999 and $899 respectively and have all of the bells and whistles. They are far from the only scopes out there but I'm expecting them to...

    Rifle Scopes Brownells MPO VS. Optika 6 HELP!!!

    Yeah, Ilya's review really helped jump this scope to the top of my list along with Brownells really going above and beyond for me in the past. I would really like @koshkin to do the side by side review of the MPO and the Optika, plus a few others like he mentioned he might before I make my...

    Rifle Scopes Brownells MPO VS. Optika 6 HELP!!!

    Thanks @Shooter McGavin I was trying to hold off on bugging you about the MPO until tomorrow! That helps me because I have played with a PST II (not super impressed). I like how it comes with the integrated throw lever too, but so does the Optika... I'm really leaning towards the MPO but I just...

    Rifle Scopes Brownells MPO VS. Optika 6 HELP!!!

    I'M SORRY FOR ANOTHER ONE OF THESE POSTS! I have been trying to ask questions and get comparisons in other threads but I feel like this might reach more people who might be able to help. I have been shooting local PRS style matches with my home build 700 in .260 with a SWFA SS fixed 20x. I've...

    Rifle Scopes Meopta OPTIKA 5

    Just saw that Meopta announced an Optika 5 at shot show on their Instagram. Has anybody seen any details about this? I thought it was a typo but I zoomed in and they clearly have it on the big banner next to the 6

    Rifle Scopes Burris XTR II

    I believe it was an issue on the models with 8 mil per turn elevation turrets. When they went to 10 mil turrets they fixed the issue. Hopefully somebody can verify this, but that's the way I understand it

    Rifle Scopes Scope recommendation

    I got a Burris MSR 223 3-9 2 years ago for just over $150. I've been using it on my M1A and it has been working great. The turrets are a little mushy but it tracks well and the glass is quite nice. I like the capped windage on it. My biggest complaint is the reticle is on the thick side. It's a...

    Rifle Scopes New Meopta Scope - Optika6

    @SCGunner84 It was at Kenzie's optics just north of Acworth, GA. They had 2 of the 3-18x56mm MRAD 1 RD with the capped windage. https://www.kenziesoptics.com/product/meopta-optika6-3-18x56-ffp-mrad-rd-riflescope/ For some reason they don't have the price on the side but I think they said $750...

    Rifle Scopes New Meopta Scope - Optika6

    I got my hands on a 3-18x56 Rd 1 mrad today. I was extremely impressed (I have no experience with quality optics though so take that with a grain of salt) -This optic is a chunk, but not in a bad way in my opinion. It felt very "premium". -Turrets felt just about right to me and I did not...

    Rifle Scopes New Meopta Scope - Optika6

    I finally saved up enough pennies for a "real" scope and I'm stuck between the 5-30x56 Optika and the 5-25 MPO. Has anybody gotten to see both of these and what are your thoughts???? I haven't been able to find any comparisons...... They would be pretty close in price after buying a sun shade...

    Rifle Scopes Brownell's 5-25x56 MPO is finally in stock!

    @freeride Amy chance you have gotten your hands on an Optika 6 to compare to??? @Shooter McGavin did they ever get the issue resolved and send it out?

    Rifle Scopes Brownell's 5-25x56 MPO is finally in stock!

    @Winny94 absolutely correct. Based off of Ilya's breif comparison of the 2, Brownells went with some better internal components in the turrets (and maybe erector?). It's all a guess to me... I don't have a clue what im talking about!

    Rifle Scopes FFP Reticle size question

    @8pointer I haven't done anything yet. I'm trying to fund my new scope by selling knives I make but most people are pretty tapped out from Christmas still.... I literally tried to sell plasma but my veins are too small? ?. I'm not making a decision until I get my hands on an Optika 6 to look...

    Rifle Scopes Brownell's 5-25x56 MPO is finally in stock!

    Has anybody else gotten their hands on an MPO? I found out that I live only 11 miles from Kenzie's Optics in Acworth, Ga, so I paid them a visit this morning. I really wanted to see an Optika 6 but they were out of stock... I did however get to see a Crimson Trace 5-25x56 which is supposed to...

    Rifle Scopes Brownell's 5-25x56 MPO is finally in stock!

    @Shooter McGavin I hope it's just high demand! Keep us updated. I can't believe how little new iformation is out there on these scopes.... I expected more updates and user reports to be rolling in by now.
