    Rifle Scopes Sightmark 1-6x24

    I was in a store today and saw this scope in the display case. I had never even heard of this brand before. I was impressed that it was a 1-6 power. While it weighed about as much as a tank, it also seemed built to the same quality. The glass seemed clear. The reticle was nice. And for...

    If you could start from scratch, what do you buy?

    Back story - I have been shooting only about 5 years. First pistol, then IPSC / IDPA. Then rifle (AR-15) and then 3 gun. Then 18 months or so ago I bought a LWRC REPR and shot some F-Class (my range is 300 yards). Then I bought a Sig SSG3000 within the last year and did much better in F-Class...

    Rifle Scopes Sightron has a 1-7x24 scope?

    I have been considering a new scope for 3 gun. I currently use a Leupold Mark IV 1.5-5. I have been checking out the 1-4 and upcoming 1-6 offerings. Nowhere have I seen mention the Sightron 1-7, until I am on this site and an ad pops up for this scope. I then found it on Sightron's website...

    Sig SSG 3000

    I got myself a lightly used Sig SSG 3000 a few weeks ago. My friend had put about 200 rounds through it and was moving on to a Steyr. And thanks to research and advice on this site, I ordered a Nightforce 8-32x56 benchrest scope for it and mounted it with Nightforce rings, the correct height...

    Rifle Scopes Fav'd online stores for scopes

    Re: Fav'd online stores for scopes I just ordered a NF scope from Sport Optics. I called back the next day and ordered a set of rings. Both times I have been very impressed with the level of service.

    Rifle Scopes Help me decide on scope rings / mount

    I have a Sig SSG 3000 rifle. I ordered a NF 8-32x56 benchrest scope. Thanks to info on this site, I was able to make a good decision on the scope. And I have been able to make an informed decision about ring / mount height. I have figured out that I need rings or a mount with a centerline at...

    Rifle Scopes NF bench rest 12 X 42

    Re: NF bench rest 12 X 42 I have Sig SSG 3000 in .308 and was just considering this scope. First of all, thanks to BobinNC for helpng me. The below info comes from what he taught me. I found that with a 0MOA base I could zero at 100 and push the rifle out to right at 600 yards. I found...

    Rifle Scopes Do I want / need a 20 MOA base?

    Re: Do I want / need a 20 MOA base? This thread has been good for me. I think I am going to stay with the 0 MOA base. I already have it, so there is no extra expense. I can always buy the 20 MOA base later (if needed) and re-zero. I think I am going to stay with the 12-42. While the 8-32...

    Rifle Scopes Do I want / need a 20 MOA base?

    Re: Do I want / need a 20 MOA base? BobinNC - Thanks a bunch. If I understand correctly, then a 20 MOA will not allow me to zero at 100 yards with that scope. Also if I understand correctly, I can push the 0 MOA base and 12-42 out to 600 yards. Beyond that, I would need a different base. I...

    Rifle Scopes Do I want / need a 20 MOA base?

    I have a Sig SSG 3000. I am getting close to a NightForce scope, either the 8-32 or 12-42 benchrest model. Do I want / need a 20 MOA base for this set up? 95%+ of the shooting will be done a 300 meter F-Class. Some will be done at 100 yards (playing, zeroing). And I hope to try out a 600 yard...

    Rifle Scopes Thinking of getting optics & mounts for F-class

    I shot two F class matches last year, and a few so far this year. All have been 300 meters. I have used my LWRC REPR with Leupold Mark IV 6.5-20, but I want to upgrade that rig. I have already acquired a Sig SSG 3000 through a trade with a friend. Now I need mounts and optics. I am considering...

    Suppressors Is your rifle as accurate w/ suppressor as w/ out?

    I have an LWRC REPR. I have shot a total of four 300 meter matches with it. I think my class is F/TR. I am shooting with a scope and bi-pod. The two times I shot without the supressor, I got lots of 8,9,10 and the occasional X. I shot around 525 for my score. I know, that sucks, but in my...

    Suppressors Change on POI with suppressor

    I have a LWRC REPR in .308. I had data on the rifle for 100 and 300 yard zero. I knew that I had to come up 5.25 MOA from my 100 yard zero to be on at 300 yards. I then installed an AAC 7.62SD. Shift was about 4" down and 1" to the right at 100 yards. I then re-zeroed at 100 yards. I did not...

    New LWRC A3 - testing for accuracy, fit and finish

    Re: New LWRC A3 - testing for accuracy, fit and finish My M6A2 has no play and the fit and finish are superb. It was my first rifle and I liked it so much it inspired me to get a REPR. My M6A2 shoots 55 grain just fine. As I said, it was my first ever rifle. After I got comfortable shooting...
