Rifle Scopes Location of Scope
If you have an RPR the rail should be a 20moa rail. I ran an Athlon Argos 6-24 on my 308 RPR (very good budget setup). I ran Burris XTR Signature rings to get extra MOA in addition to the rail. With that setup I was zeroed at 100 yards and could dial out to 1000. Using the inserts you can...- Xjtony

6.5 Grendal Barrel Length Suggestions?
XBR under a 129G ABLR is a fairly common combo on some other sites. Its a bit slow but I loaded these for hunting and at my current MV I can keep velocity up above 1300FPS ( Nosler states this speed as minimum for reliable expansion) out to over 700 yards. I live in Utah so I do have density...- Xjtony

Accuracy Issues New Scope
@MikeMahogany It sucks you've had issues for sure. I've only sent one personal scope back and didn't have any issues. I use Vortex binoculars at work for emissions testing and they get beat up driving around the desert so we send them back every few years. Hopefully they take care of you and...- Xjtony

Accuracy Issues New Scope
You have to remember that Vortex has several different lines, diamondback being one of the lower end ones. Their real claim to fame is keeping costs low enough that they can replace scopes that don't meet quality standards (which they are VERY good about). The hype is not necessarily always...- Xjtony

Just an update for guys with this scope. I got my labels from CTS on. The CS from them was fantastic. Easy way to fix the labeling. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk- Xjtony

Rifle Scopes Minox ZA5i HD 1.2-6x24 TAC
I have the same scope in 3-15. I contacted Minox about the issue a few months ago. They verified that there was a marking problem with the earlier scopes in this series, but no longer have replacement turrets available. The scope tracks correctly so I just made a label to re-number the turrets...- Xjtony
