    Hunting & Fishing Hunting scope recommendations

    I definitely missed that one. I think I like the SWFA SS mil reticle more, but if this Bushnell is as good as everyone says I think I will have to pick one up at that price. I think I can get used to that circle, heck maybe I will like it.

    Hunting & Fishing Hunting scope recommendations

    I do more hunting these days and less shooting. I have sold all my ar's, desert tech, NF's, and Kahles that just weren't getting enough use. Most of that money went to optics and camera gear. I now want to put together my ultimate budget hunting setup for under $2000 total. Rifle will be a...

    Rifle Scopes Which Horus?

    Maybe you want to look at the Kahles 624i w/ AMR. I love mine. http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/snipers-hide-rifle-scopes/249950-desert-techs-amr-reticle-results-big-game-hunting.html

    Can You Guys Critique My Build Before I click Order?

    The 8-32 NXS has 65 moa of travel. Yes, you can add the 20 moa of reticle and get by with a 40 moa cant mount. If the idea is an ELR setup I think there are better options.

    Can You Guys Critique My Build Before I click Order?

    I would strongly suggest a different scope. Something with a lower min power for hunting and you will want more elevation in the turret if you are going to shoot at something at 2000 yards. You will need about 95 moa to get to 2000 yds. You will need a 60 moa cant mount to get there with your...

    Rifle Scopes Review of Desert Tech's AMR reticle in Kahles K624i

    Finally got out the last couple days to get some good use and time behind this scope on my dt srs shooting .308, 6.5x47, and .338 Lapua. Started at 845 yds with 15-22mph 3 o'clock wind. Using the "tree" to holdover for elevation and windage was very fast to get on target and easy to use. Very...

    Desert Tech... It's here!

    I am with you. I personally would love to see the 6.5x47 lapua as I am already all geared up for this caliber and it is the most accurate of everything I shoot. I know this anecdotal evidence doesn't mean much. I don't see the reason to categorize every rifle into one specific use (CQB). The...

    I think you guys are dreaming when it comes to a Rem 700 bullpup chassis. I just don't see how this is possible.

    GAP-10 or Larue OBR or LWRC Repr?

    Your friend must have a much different attitude than I do. If this story is all true I would be much more enticed to get the problem resolved after seeing that email and finding out my gun still doesn't work. I would make a phone call and let them know that this incident will be circulated...

    Rifle Scopes Review of Desert Tech's AMR reticle in Kahles K624i

    I have mine mounted on my SRS, just trying to get some above zero temps up here to match up with my days off so I can test this thing out. It looks great though. $3084

    Hunting & Fishing Experience with remote for Foxpro Wildfire?

    The cold must really affect it. Today I tested in the house and even on the other side of the house in a room with the door shut the remote worked with every button I pushed. In the cold yesterday it was still inconsistent when standing next to it. It also makes me think that a little bit of...

    Hunting & Fishing Experience with remote for Foxpro Wildfire?

    I took my new wildfire out for the first time yesterday and called 6 different sets with no luck. I had new batteries in the remote and the unit, but the remote was very inconsistent to say the least. It was about -10 F with snow on the ground. I had the caller elevated off the ground with a...

    tikka t3 varmint

    The tikka mags are almost identical size to an AR-15 style mag. No idea why they make them like this as there is plenty of room to allow for more length. Put bottom metal in mine for the aics mags. It did take some dremel work on the stock and on the mags themselves to fit close enough to the...

    Thanks Nick. No lost respect for DTA. Just so you know I haven't mentioned this situation anywhere else online.

    Nope, just the scope. I called today and the price list the salesman I talked to had listed the same price ($3694) for the MSR reticle. There seemed to be some confusion about the price increase so he said he was going to dig deeper and give me a call back. I can only hope I was overcharged.

    The price of the Kahles scopes they sell with non-AMR reticles are comparable with other dealers. So I believed them when they told me that Kahles was charging more for the AMR. I guess I just got too wrapped up in the excitement of the scope and was caught off guard in the phone conversation...

    I don't know about tried and true, but the K624i has been around for well over a year, not? I don't know if I would consider myself a guinea pig, but either way that doesn't bother me. Yes, I have it, will shoot it, and hope to enjoy it. I am not looking for something else. My only question is...
