    Rifle Scopes Mark 6 1-6x20 (5.56 Reticle) vs. Trijicon VCOG 1-6x24 (55gr reticle) vs. Kahles K16i 1-6x24 Sl1 reticle

    TMR is a good clean reticle. Thanks for the advice on the Mark 6. I went for the K16i Sl1, the MOA reticle with the chevrons, over the VCOG 1-6x and the Mark 6 1-6x. I thought about weight vs. durability, dialing vs. holding over, and figured I'd get the Kahles for this application. I...

    Excellent reply. Since I am MOA based, I will opt for the Sl1.

    Rifle Scopes Kahles 3GR and Sl1 Reticles

    Can someone explain the functioning of the Kahles 3GR and Sl1 reticles to me? I am probably buying the K16i. For example, how is the second red dot in the 3GR used, as a hold off for close range and drop compensation mark for 300 or 400 yards? I like that the Sl1 is in MOA, but why the 5MOA...

    Hello Everyone, Mark 6 1-6x20 (5.56 Reticle) vs. Trijicon VCOG 1-6x24 (55gr reticle) vs. Kahles K16i 1-6x24 Sl1 reticle.The forum has discussed these scopes at some length, but I am not getting the info I would like from people who own them.

    How bad will the riots be when Trump wins in November?

    I don't know what types and was hoping someone who knows about radios would comment. I would have my friends get them too. When I start reading about radios I become very confused. There are so many different kinds. One I guess one would want a base at home too.

    How bad will the riots be when Trump wins in November?

    Just to say, the AI/machine learning is just backing out of known results and comparing millions or billions of data points. It is similar to a phenomenon discovered in the 1940's social sciences, the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Index. With enough known subjects, responses to meaningless...

    How bad will the riots be when Trump wins in November?

    Google, Apple, MS, Amazon, the payment system companies, MSM are all "progressive" or hi jacked by same. I see algorithmic mass cancelation. Imagine no email. no web access, no voice com, no access to money, maybe even unable to start your truck, a barrage of disinformation on the airwaves...

    How bad will the riots be when Trump wins in November?

    Go to work, yes. Does anyone give thought to how we communicate if public order breaks down? You know that big tech has big data "algorithms" to shut off the email and social media accounts and possibly even disable voice comm of conservative users. That eye phone will be worthless. No...

    How bad will the riots be when Trump wins in November?

    The internet, twitter, face book, etc, and MSM stoke hatreds and make for accelerated destabilization. At the same time, they censor views contrary to their own. I don't participate in the social media, but what I see now and then I dislike. The other side is playing for keeps. What do we...

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon guru needed - ACOG help

    I have a new RCO I bought for a 14.5" Colt 6944 because it's calibrated for that barrel length and green tip. But then I don't shoot green tip much. I have mine zeroed at 100 like the Trijicon instruction book says you're supposed to. I have not taken it beyond 200 yet, but when I have a free...

    Rifle Scopes SHTF LPVO?

    No, nothing is perfect and even with huge differences in quality btw low cost and expensive, there's always a trade off. I am thinking about the criticisms here of the VCOG and I don't like FFP, but I am torn. (You're sure of the weight 45 Custom? I keep getting different weights for w or w/o...

    Rifle Scopes SHTF LPVO?

    If I were young with good eyes I would not even bother with a scope on a survival rifle and go with a top drawer AR15A4 and a pinned rear sight that also allowed one to flip the ghost ring into place. But I'm not young and my eyes aren't good. I can use my indestructible ACOG RCO with eye...

    Rifle Scopes SHTF LPVO?

    I have the same question as this thread. I saw some comment on the VCOG, but not much. Why no consideration of the VCOG 1-6x? It's not particularly heavy, 23.5oz w mount. Trijicon glass is high end Schott USA. The Trijicon turrets have been good in my experience (RCO, MRO, RX-01 &...

    Rifle Scopes New Elcan Specter OS4X

    Internet is the place to post such a question, in a new or old thread. So far, no vendor has responded having one even though manufacturer's literature says it exists. At least you're tickling the thread for web crawlers. Anyway, you have no information. Has anyone actually handled the...

    Rifle Scopes New Elcan Specter OS4X

    Thanks, Ilya. That's good. I'd like something smaller than the USO SR6 - nice glass, but bulky. Which of the two reticles are you using and how does it do at 300 and 600? I'd be shooting SMK 168's from a 16" bbl.

    Yes, I wasted time calling Raytheon and did not get an answer. This is the correct thread to post, old or not. The internet - home of the illiterate - was a last resort. ;) ;), LOL! #$&* you!

    Rifle Scopes New Elcan Specter OS4X

    Hello, Is there a 308 reticle for the OS 4x yet? Raytheon on line literature says there is, but haven't seen one for sale or even a picture of the reticle. I'd be interested.

    LMT .308 MWS

    Really solid, Amazing build quality. Just breaking in mine, a slick side LM8MWS with 16" chrome lined barrel, mounted correctly with a USO SR6. I am getting used to the rifle now with about 200 rounds through it. What a great rifle - so easy and smooth to shoot, doesn't feel like a 308. I have...
