    Howa mini owners....ring question

    So I have everything I need to finish my .223 build except the scope rings. I have a Vortex Diamondback tactical 4-16x44 on the way. Rifle is a 20" HB and I'm using an EGW base. That being the case will Vortex or Burris XTR low rings work? Or, should I go with medium?

    Scope for 7.62x39 bolt gun?

    @gr8fuldoug I went with the RT-6 from the gents at Camera Land/Sports Optics. Doug and Neil are 1000% thumbs up!! Gave me a fantastic deal! I'll definitely be buying from then again.

    Scope rec's? Somewhat short range .223 bolt...

    Just picked a Diamondback Tactical FFP MRAD up today. Dvor had them on sale for $285. For that price, if it's not really what I want I can always pop it on a .22 and keep shopping...

    Scope for 7.62x39 bolt gun?

    Yeah, given the relatively short range and 7.62x39 I don't plan on doing any dialing...

    Scope for 7.62x39 bolt gun?

    Alright, so I finally got my Ruger 7.62x39 bolt gun. Now I need some glass. I currently have access to nothing greater than 200 yards. Since this is just a fun toy, I need something in the sub-$400 bracket I'm looking at.... Blackhound 1-8 (don't know much about 'em, but they're supposedly a...

    Arken/Outlier promo question

    That's kinda what I'm thinking. Although, their silence on this isn't really helping them any. Just come out and say it....

    Yeah, I got the same email too. Honestly, it made me more skeptical of buying an Arken...

    Scope rec's? Somewhat short range .223 bolt...

    Yeah, they are cool though ;). If I eliminate that, what other optics does that bring to the table?

    Scope rec's? Somewhat short range .223 bolt...

    Ok, so I'm still looking. Would y'all consider the PST Gen I 2.5-10x32 still a viable "contender"? I have one on my AR and I like it. Just not sure if there's better scopes for the money out there. That being said, I found them on sale. Also looking at the Crimson Trace Hardline 3-12...

    Rifle Scopes The Arken Optics Thread (merged)

    Ok, I'm very intrigued by the Arken scopes. I'm looking for a scope for my Howa Mini .223. The thing I'm skeptical about is the lack of reviews (other than here on SH). I'm particularly concerned by a scathing review online (I won't link it). Anyway, what will the Arken offer that say a...

    Scope rec's? Somewhat short range .223 bolt...

    Thanks. I'm not too hip on the 50mm obj of the CT, but that's a good price. Granted, I've not done the bolt gun thing for quite a while, but I thought Sightmark was dookie? Have they upped their game since?

    Scope rec's? Somewhat short range .223 bolt...

    Alright, So I sincerely hope this isn't too redundant, but I'm looking for scope recommendations... The rifle: Howa mini action in .223, will probably get barrel chopped to 16" Range: Currently no more than 200 yards (F-Maryland ) Budget: I'd LIKE to keep it around $400, this is just a "fun"...
