Back up we go!

Up for sale just like the title says. SFP EnHanced model with MOAR-T reticle. Comes with the box, scope caps and all documents. Glass is perfect, slight ring marks on tube. Windage cap was replaced due to losing the original so it does not have the “NF” on the cap. $1900 shipped/insured CONUS...

"Open Box" and "Demo Unit" sales are out there for sure. I'm doing that same google search and it's not pulling up any T5Xi 3-15 or 5-25 for less than MAP on the first 3 pages...? Got a link? I have a Steiner dealer price sheet fresh from SHOT here in front of me and dealer cost is no where...

Not anymore. Steiner dealers are under strict MAP restrictions as of Feb 1. Not to mention $1100 is way below current dealer pricing anyways. MAP on them is $1999.99. Mike

Little soap box moment incoming.... take it for what it cost you :) I think the feature set of the Midas Tac is perfect for a hunting scope. I must be in the minority but I absolutely abhor the combination illumination/parallax knob combo on my hunting scopes. Had an Ares BTR and you really...

Used and sold a dozen on customer rifles. Great scopes for the price and they have all tracked good, got 2 more on the way and one of them is for the wife’s 280AI. No hesitations on my end. Mike

Agree to disagree on bolt bolt clearance and how it affects accuracy. If you’ve blueprinted any number of Remington actions you’ll know that Bolt race ways vary from .698-.705. And just ordering a “.701” Bolt body for every Remington is a joke. Sometimes that will fit, other times it won’t...

My main hang up with the Remington action for the Norma case (any magnum really) is factory 6:48 scope base screws. By the time you get a Rem 700 tuned up to be reliable with a .590” Bolt faced caliber you’re close to a custom action. $240 receiver $250 to blueprint receiver and pin .250” lug...

There’s a reason barrel makers ask you to specify a finish length on the Barrels your order. So they can contour it on centers close to intended finish length. They do this because no barrel bore is perfectly straight and if you were to cut the lengths down significantly you’ll almost always see...

I run a lot of Lone Peak and Defiance actions with the Lapua Bolt faces. They’ve both shot fantastic and have been extremely consistent. Do yourself a favor and run Lapua or Peterson brass with the Norma. It makes a LOT of difference

I handled the higher mag Optika6 at SHOT for a solid 15 minutes with the engineer there. At max power there was a distinct blurry spot at 5 O'clock in the FOV. We played with eye piece focus, parallax, and checked at different ranges of the turret travels. Hoping it was the fact that it was a...

APLR3 Reticle from Athlon, except with 1Mil outter stadia as menioned above, and a center crosshair of .03Mil thick. Also a fan of the G3 reticle from Bushnell. Mike

Good to know! Im very much a fan of the .03Mil center.

I’ve measured from front of ring face to front of rail before with a set of rings that weren’t staying seated on the pic rail and noticed them changing .005” from mounting (seated forward in the slot) to returning from the range. I would attempt to check POI shift from a few different...

FYI the LRTS non illuminated has a .03Mil center reticle where as the LRTSi has a .06Mil center. It’s not advertised and Bushnell tech will half the tome tell you they’re the same G3 reticle but they are very much not. I’ve nevet used illumination on a hunt and the LRTS 4.5-18 has lived through...

Does the rifle group consistently with each range session? Are you verifying all the parallax is removed from the sight picture? Parallax issues cause 90% of the issues with shooting small groups at 100 yards. Most the time because shooters just spin the knob to 100 and start pulling triggers...

Please share back if/when you get a response. I have an LRTS on order as well to try out. Mike
