    Swarovski Spotter Optical Quality Differences between STS, STR and STX/ATX?

    I currently have a Swaro STS HD 20-60x65 and while it’s a great spotter, I feel like I’m leaving something on the table with the 65mm objective lens. I was debating stepping up to the 80mm housing. This is all for a mix of both long range shooting and outdoor wildlife watching. But it got me...

    Why is Aimpoint ACRO P1 backordered everywhere?

    Basically what the title says- does anyone know why the Aimpoint ACRO P1 is backordered everywhere online? Or does anyone have a line on one from a REPUTABLE source? I’m in need of one quickly and it appears to be that I’m in need at the worst possible time.

    Rifle Scopes RFI: Leupold VX-6 FireDot 1-6x

    I saw that Paul Howe is running this optic. Does anyone here have experience with this scope? It baffles me as to why they can't get the FireDot in the Mark6 1-6x. I've used a VX-R Patrol 3-9x40 scope, and it's a great optic. The illumination really is daylight visible and fast. I'm...

    Intermediate DMR Round: 6.8SPC vs 6.5Grendel

    I'm looking for a round to fill a DMR style role for mid and long range use, as well as for LE use with the capability of defeating barriers while being used in a precision role. With the heavier OTM rounds and the like with the 6.8SPC, is it about on par with the 6.5Grendel? Or is the 6.5...

    Firearms Shooting/Tactics YouTube Channel

    I recently started making a couple videos for my YouTube video channel that I haven't used in a long time (I previously used it for car videos). This was primarily done for my guys at work to watch since our range time and training is so limited that we can't teach most of this stuff. A lot...

    One Modular Rifle vs Multiple Rifles

    I have been racking my brain for a while trying to come up with a solution to wanting multiple rifles. After selling two rifles, I am sans long-range capability (only got a mess of .223s). My original plan was to get an AI AE MkII .308 and then work from there with other rifles being added...

    Rifle Scopes Why do so many used USO scopes show up for sale?

    Not to be insolent, insulting or disrespectful to anyone, but I've been noticing for a while now that there seem to be lots of USO scopes that pop up for sale in the Optics For Sale section of the site. Is there a specific reason for this? Is there something I don't know that I should? I've...

    Rifle Scopes Weaver Tactical: How Good?

    My previous experiences with Weaver scopes has been less than stellar. I'm not a fan of their scopes. Recently, however, ATK purchased Weaver. Being from Minnesota, I have a lot of faith in ATK to make a great product. I'm wondering if anyone here has any experience with a Weaver Tactical...
