    Rifle Scopes New Release: Cronus BTR Gen 2

    The turrets are definitely an improvement over the BTR, and much more distinct than even the Midas TAC’s that I have felt. Definitely 2 thumbs up.

    9mm Bolt Action Rifle - Looking for people with experience with the manufacturer (Curtis Tactical)

    I like the idea of a 9mm bolt gun. I however think it is oversized on a 700 platform. I am working on a Remington 582 9mm conversion that I believe is a much more appropriate sized action.

    The l461 was chambered in 223 length cartridges, where as the l491 was chambered in 222 Remington mag length cartridges. Both would make fine small action builds.

    Rifle Scopes 6-24 Argos BTR vs. 6-24 Midas Tac? Is the true zero stop/turrets/glass worth it?

    What is your intended range. If beyond say 3-400 yards I would definitely step up to the Midas Tac.

    Rifle Scopes Scope recommendation

    I would have suggested the Athlon Midas-TAC until I looked through the sale list on Grainger’s sight. I would jump all over those sales.

    Rifle Scopes Dual focal plane scopes

    I like the idea of a duel focal plane, however probably not a big enough market to have manufacturers going after it.

    Rifle Scopes Athlon glass

    As stated before the Midas-TAC has HD glass and the Ares BTR and ETR both have ED glass. I believe they are close in picture quality between the BTR and Midas-TAC because the Midas is using a 4 power magnifier where is the BTR is using a 6 power magnifier.

    Rifle Scopes Noob... MOA vs MRAD

    What works for you? Don’t forget that generally speaking MOA scope resale is not as good as MILL scopes. And if you give the HIDE vendors a call you can get a great deal on lots of optics, not to mention the classified section here on he Hide.

    Rifle Scopes Another mil vs moa thread

    For starters 1 MOA is not .25 or 1” at 100 yards it is 1.047” at 100 yards. Then there is the fact that there are scopes that say .25” at 100 and in fact are adjusting in true MOA or vice versa true MOA reticle and shooter MOA turets meaning adjusting at .25” at 100. It’s just a Cluster Cluck.
