    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    Put together a hypothetical (lite) version for a 3-18x DMR style. Even less cluttered, slightly heavier at .05 in close to the aiming point and .07 as you get out past 2 mil of wind and below 5mil elevation. I guess I'll have to double check the two DNT I have already to see how bright they...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    obviously i borrowed some inspiration from this. .03 dot close to the verticle, and increased to .05 as you move away. Broken hashes to keep the "grid" less full

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    I understand completely, but I don't believe a digital representation equates 1:1 to how an actual reticle performs in the field. Alas, that's the whole point and advantage of having an illuminated reticle that's daylight bright. An example would be a Leupold PR2 that's one of the most popular...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    I was never really a fan of the old H-2 and H-37 with the offset being +4 mil high of center, but would it be terrible if it was 1 or 2 mil high of center? Almost wouldn't notice unless you were holding way over. (just spit balling here) Would a 1 or 2 mil offset ranging "L" be desire-able at...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    I think it's well established, can't make 100% of the people happy 100% of the time. I have never had issues with a grid personally, All of my PRS rifles have some form of a grid or grid like reticle. I could see doing a strait cross hair like a JTAC, considering the TOR is pretty similar to a...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    For me...one of the major reasons I like 20 mil of hold is for rimfire. There's plenty of times beyond 300 yds where I have had to run a NO DIAL stage and a 300 yd hold is 12-13 mil.

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    Gave it one more minor tweak, very minor, probably wouldnt even notice if you're not lookign for it. Since you cant see anything outside 5 mil when you're zoomed in, there's no reason for the dots to be smaller than .05, and since you cant see anything outside 10 when you're zoomed in to 18x...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    Overlaid on a pronghorn at roughly 440 yds. If my math is close, if you see roughly 5 mil on each side of the cross hair at 35x. Youd see roughly 10 mil at 18x (17.5 mil) and you'd see roughly down to 22.5 at the bottom at 7x (roughly) so this is about how the view would be on a 440 yd critter...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    did a revised version of mine...reduced size of the + to only .02 instead of .4 and bumped up the weight at 2mil on the horizontal to .06 and again at 5 mil down to .06 weight. Should make it easier to see at reduced power. Less busy overall, heavier the further away from the POA you get...

    Primary Arms Optics - Discovery 2025: PLx Compact Long Range Scopes Unveiled

    This 1000% PA made a choice to go with 48mm objective (just to differentiate themselves from NF?) Seems like a reasonable compromise between 40 and 50. I don't hate it. PA went with 34mm tube (this could be good or bad depending on your perspective) I prefer the 34mm tube, It's probably...

    Barrel and gas system lengths

    I built and tested them without...but they whole purpose was to shoot them suppressed. Currently, they function 97% both ways (very minor magazine issues), but once they are tuned and running...they will be 100% suppressed. I just have a feeling that 18" will work just fine

    Barrel and gas system lengths

    If anything, mine is low, causing rounds from a pmag to slam face first into the front of the barrel extension, below the feed ramp. Doesn't happen with ASC

    Barrel and gas system lengths

    So I've got a pair of AR10s and I use that term on purpose. One is an Armalite AR10 that was originally a 300 SAUM. I rebarreled it to a 6.5 PRC with a 24" barrel and a +2 gas system. I've just about got it dialed in to cycle perfect...but the Armalite mags are dog-spit and I think I'm gonna end...

    Primary Arms Optics - Discovery 2025: PLx Compact Long Range Scopes Unveiled

    Did I miss an estimated release date on the 2.5-20x ? I assume price will come with that, but would be nice to know if I'm holding out till April or October. If it's NX8 price point, I'll probably wait for a used one, but if they can get it to the $1500 range (like their current 6-30 PLx)...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    I was always a fan of the 1/2 mil hold dots that the H59 had, but hated the full grid. The MilXT kept those 1/2 mil dots, and ditched the grid...but I wasn't ever really a fan of the full string of dots on the horizontals that the EBR-7D and MilXT used. I think 10-12 mil of hold over is plenty...
