    Rifle Scopes Tracking tests; how are you setting it up?

    Here's the original....way back in 2013. The hole in the middle is for running a ratchet strap thru and securing it to a shooting bench.

    Rifle Scopes Is Glass quality Bullsh*t? Or is it me?

    Op, Turret configuration was one of the big reasons my brother bought that last razor (the one in the video), he has trouble focusing up close and digs the 5mil turrets and the feel they have, he feels like he's faster with them on the clock. Unfortunately both of his need to go back. I agree...

    Rifle Scopes Optic for semi auto 308; can a Nightforce F1 be beat?

    I would never try to talk someone out of a scope they want to buy, it's their money....but..if anyone here thinks that the Mk6 is the equal to a F1 they haven't been paying attention. I've tested a couple different Mk6 scopes and about the only good thing I can say about them is they both would...

    Rifle Scopes New Steiner T5Xi Tactical Rifle Scopes

    Great looking scope at an even better price point! Quick question; Based on the naming of the reticle, you designed this scope/reticule combination for competition use? If so what is the advantage for going with a 12mil turret system vs a 10mil? In today’s matches where 6/6.5mm’s are the...

    Rifle Scopes March 3x24x52, Anyone have their hands on one yet?

    You mean this one? ;) I'm in the process of doing a review right now, just got a little behind after going to ASC. I'll be finishing up the tracking test in a week or so and posting the video here, similar to the F1 tracking test I posted a few weeks ago. Full review will be posted here...

    What is your favorite brake for .308?

    I can understand having one on a 6 creedmoore but you'd have to be a real puss to put one on a 6slr. ;)

    Rifle Scopes Mark 6 3x18 question

    Tactical Tks for that, I read another thread about this same problem a week or so ago (maybe from you?) where someone brought this up. Makes a lot of sense which is why I'm thinking the problem with my Mk4 may be my fault. Either way here's hoping Leupold will get it fixed up...

    Rifle Scopes Mark 6 3x18 question

    I'm sure there are good Mk6's out there. Before I tested my first one I used it in a local match on a new to me rifle and enjoyed it. Glass was decent enough, I dig the TMR and it's a great size and weight, (mushy elevation turret). But mine didn't track and sending it off to Leupold didn't...

    Rifle Scopes Mark 6 3x18 question

    ^^This^^ I did those videos and am sad to say the 2 Mk6's I had did not track, and that's after sending them back to Leupold to get fixed. My Mk4 6.5-20 M5A2 did not track when I received it, sent it back twice for that reason, after getting it back the second time it was perfect up to...

    Rifle Scopes NF F1 Tracking Test

    Yep running "Litz's tall target test" will work also, and I agree you don't need "exactly 100yds" but you do need to know exactly how far away your target is. If your distance is a little off it will slightly change your results and if your shooting is a little off that too will slightly change...

    Rifle Scopes NF F1 Tracking Test

    I thought that would have been the ticket too, but it's not. I have a couple pretty heavy tripods and their just not solid enough, they show a lot of movement when your turning the dials and their ability to keep zero is iffy. Maybe you'll have better luck, it just didn't work out for me.

    Rifle Scopes NF F1 Tracking Test

    I've been getting a lot of questions about the procedure used in this testing and what the different scopes I've tested are. If you go to the below link you'll see all of the scopes that were tested that afternoon and a different link in the first paragraph that will take you to the procedures...

    Rifle Scopes NF F1 Tracking Test

    That was the tricky part, along with being able to level everything out. A picture is worth a 1000 words :)
