    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Elite 4200 Tactical 6-24x50, FFP or SFP?

    Re: Bushnell Elite 4200 Tactical 6-24x50, FFP or SFP? I don't want to hijack this tread but I've got the following problem: I just received the Bushnell (6-24x50 FFP illum. mildot) when I set the illumination on, the vertical part of the recticle is brighter than the horizontal one. Only set...

    Rifle Scopes Which scope would you pick for .22 ?

    Re: Which scope would you pick for .22 ? I'v got Bushnell's on my .22 all are the Elite 3200. You get a clear and good scope for the buck. Buy a quality scope even for a .22. I learned it the hard way: before I had some scope made in China that were pure junk.

    Rifle Scopes 1-4x for CQB to Mid-Range: Starting from Scratch

    Re: 1-4x for CQB to Mid-Range: Starting from Scratch My current set up is a Trijicon Accupoint 1-4 (set on 4x)with an Aimpoint Micro T. Before I tried a Burris 1-4 and the Leupy 1-3 but the Accupoint I like best for under 1k $ (yes my budget is limited)

    Rifle Scopes Illumination

    Re: Illumination I personally prefer green that's why I bought an Accupoint 1-4 with green triangle, had a 1.25-4 with red triangle before but like the green more. I tested the green one on 1x with my NV-Goggles: it works but its far away from an Eotech or Aimpoint.

    The Worlds fastest Caliber Swap!

    Re: The Worlds fastest Caliber Swap! I need a little bit more to change the Caliber of my STR (Swiss Target Rifle) but at least I use tools and I'm sure the barrel is right in his place. I would not trust the hand tighten barrel in the video.

    Rifle Scopes Quick Disconnect Mount

    Re: Quick Disconnect Mount I've got a couple of American Defence mounts and like them. But honestly I usually don't remove scopes so I don't know how they hold zero.

    Rifle Scopes Burris XTR 1-4 feedback

    Re: Burris XTR 1-4 feedback Hi I had the Burris XTR 1-4 but replaced it with Trijicon 1-4 which I like much more. The Burris is clear but I did not like the recticle and the illum. setting were useless for me.

    Rifle Scopes IOR 2.5x10x42 any downside or others to compare?

    Re: IOR 2.5x10x42 any downside or others to compare? I've got an older IOR 2.5-10x42 (I think Gen. II). I really like the MP recticle but the illum. is useless for me: too bright for dusk/dawn but not bright enough in day use against dark targets. The glas has a very good quality I would say...

    custom 300 mag shooting like crap

    Re: custom 300 mag shooting like crap @JoeJen: at what range did you shot, 100yards? Have others the same experienced with your rifle? Magunm bullets need some more range until they are stabilized.

    Rifle Scopes IOR first hand experience

    Re: IOR first hand experience I've got a 2.5-10x42 form IOR, I think gen. II. I realy like the MP recticle but the illumination is too weak for day use and too bright for night use. I compared it side by side to my NF and Leupy, I like it better than the Leupold but like the NF better but...

    Rifle Scopes How important is an illum Reticle

    Re: How important is an illum Reticle On my IOR scope, the illumination is useless - not enough bright in daylight but too bright in dusk/dawn. But on the NF it works great even on the Burris xtreme. If you ever want to sell your scope in the future its easier when it has illuminated recticles.

    5.11 VTAC LBE Tactical Vest

    Re: 5.11 VTAC LBE Tactical Vest By mistake I received one in XXL. First I wanted to sent it back but then set it as small as possible and it fits perfect like the one in olive in L I have. It seems they run out of wests in size L, perhaps you can give the xxl a try.

    Rifle Scopes Flakes in IOR scope!

    Re: Flakes in IOR scope! I experiend the same a couple of years ago, I think it was a gen. II model, then I beat it several times on a phone book (I read this advice in the net) and the flakes disappered but I recommend this procedure to strong built scopes only.

    Rechargeable CR123 Batteries

    Re: Rechargeable CR123 Batteries I've been using rechargeable 123 batteries for 2 years now. Unlike other rechargeable batteries I have, they dont run out of juice as fast on stand-by and are not as affected by the cold (have I light allways in the car, winter was hard and it still works). I...
