    Rifle Scopes Anyone else anxiously awaiting a new Vortex?

    I'm waiting for that exact same scope from that exact same vendor, ordered about a month ago. My credit card is on fire lately, so unlike you I'm actually hoping it will be a while.

    Rifle Scopes US Optics SR-8C Quick Review

    What happened to IPHY and MOA reticles? I feel like those were formerly available in the custom configurator and now they are gone.

    Rifle Scopes SWFA SS 1-6HD? Do you like yours？

    The scope is brilliant. They used FFP to provide an excellent 1x reticle and an excellent 6x reticle. The glass is great. It feels very durable and strong. Illumination is adequate. There are a couple of little nice touches, too. Like the knobs hold a spare illumination battery. Thread...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA SS 1-6 or Razor 1-6?

    While I understand that point of view, it really depends on the reticle. SWFA has specifically designed their reticle to work well at 1x and 6x. They have taken advantage of how FFP works to provide you with two different reticles. At 1x you have a donut with crosshairs in the middle; that's an...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more!

    Got mine last week. The HD glass is pretty great. The reticle is fantastic and perfect for a 1-6 optic; it was very well thought-out. Turrets have a nice feel and tons of adjustment. Was able to hit IPSC silhouette at 750 yards at 6x power. Illumination is adequate in all conditions, but I don't...

    Shipping is free at Optics Planet, so I guess I don't get the joke or whatever. This is basically an 11.7% off sitewide coupon if you order over $300.

    Rifle Scopes NF clearance at MidwayUSA

    Why is this being closed out, is it an old model? I thought HS/ZS has only been around for a year or so now.

    My thread protectors were not on very tight at all. I just unscrewed them with my fingers, and I have the finger strength of a toddler.

    Who makes the most accurate AK Barrels?

    I believe the most accurate AK barrel is the hammer forged Austrian barrel made by Steyr. These were used in the Bulgarian Milled AKs model SLR-95 and maybe SLR-96? Unfortunately I don't think you can get just the barrel, as you need for your building purposes. Arsenal imported the SLR-95, so it...

    Rifle Scopes Best tracking reliable scope for $1000-$1500

    For a new scope around that amount of money I think SWFA SS and Vortex PST are the best scopes to get. Nightforce NXS is indeed better, but as others have stated you'll have to go used to get that in your price range. Also the NXS has a very difficult method for changing the illumination level...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more!

    Caps to cover the turrets to keep you from accidentally moving them. Yours probably shipped with thin thread protectors you can see at the base of the turrets, covering the cap threads.

Sniper's Hide considers these rules as written your...

    Problems zeroing ar15

    You seem to know your stuff. I think the real problem is that your brother doesn't listen to you.

    Problems zeroing ar15

    Sounds like a defective build. Your brother shouldn't have to buy a new barrel; he needs to return the whole gun or get that barrel/extension fixed under warranty.

    Price of 308 pmags?

    I don't know how you can say these list as in stock. None of these appear to have live stock tracking on their website at all, and one in particular actually confirms that.

    Rifle Scopes Why all the craze for reticles in the first focal plane

    It is a matter of preference; I don't think anyone means to say there are no cons to FFP. Since I personally almost never shoot in the dark, precision low-light performance is further down the list of priorities. What I like about FFP is that I can read reticle marks and make appropriate...

    CMMG BCG Quality

    I was able to stake mine myself, but I borrowed a proper staking tool. I don't know how it is done with typical shop tools.
