both form factors will work for me. I want a robust optic with good 1x performance, reasonable ranged performance, and above all, reliable internals. Is the 1-6 Steiner a known quantity yet, or is the nx8 1-8 the easy button, here? I have an nx8 from 2019 or so, and its good, except the eyebox...

I'm agonizing over which path to take. As I understand it: -PVS14 will allow me to perform tasks up close better in low light if there is enough ambient for my uncovered eye. -RNVG will allow me more depth perception, but I question how, as binoculars never seemed superior really to a rifle...

I can feel the cringe the title illicited, but it's also true. The beauty is, that I know I am ignorant, I know I do not know what I am looking at, and I'm curious and willing to learn. This is the first barrel I've borescoped, and am curious how it looks to someone who would know. My perception...

Do you add lube to your 1913 rail before putting rings or a unimount in place to hold it better? Why/why not?

Are they in the same league as Nightforce, Badger, KAC, Geissele, etc. unimounts? https://www.amazon.com/ERA-TAC-One-Piece-Ultralight-Mount-34mm/dp/B071K6YWMH/ref=sr_1_15?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1536075622&sr=1-15&keywords=EraTac+mount If anyone has one, what do these torx screws thread...

Is the Vortex Razor HD II line in the same league as the NXS, MK6, and other scopes regarding durability, repeatability, and ability to handle field use? Specifically I am speaking of the 1-6, but anecdotes regarding the higher power optics in the Razor HD II line apply, I'm sure.

I had always thought the crown MUST BE PERFECT or accuracy will be shit. Then one day I bought a 1940's .22 LR bolt gun. It was stunningly accurate at 50 yards. Not match-worthy, but notably, the bore was pitted, and the rifling itself looked like the yellow-lines on a road that we see jokes...

I know that on a SFP optic, changing magnification *can* alter the POI, if the optic has any flaws at all in the movement of the giblets. What about diopter? Say, if two people share a rifle for a course of fire, and prefer slightly different diopter settings, will the zero wander with BOTH the...

Which one seems to be holding up better/having the least issues/is the most durably constructed?

I am interested in the optic. I have looked through it. I have hefted it, twisted the knobs, and know what it costs. Basically anything you can "get" from YouTube or asking a buddy who has one, or handling it in a gunstore, I already know. Here are my questions, though, and I gather that they...

What is the best method here? Chemically de-greased and bone dry? Loctite (which one)? Light machine-oil, as they ship? I do not want them backing out for any reason. I have heard multiple things, curious what others thing/do, etc.
