    Zeiss S3 6 36 @$1874 or T6xi 5 30 @$1945 ?

    these are new prices, BUT the S3 is MOA- my pref is Mils, but I can make either work. I've read a ton of threads ie:https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/zeiss-lrp-s3-6-36-vs-steiner-t6xi-5-30-opinions.7152089/, but most reference the S3 as being more expensive than the Steiner. I'd...

    MPOs now $699- a good budget choice ?

    Brownells has knocked down its 5-25 and 3-18 MPOs to $699- Ilya said he quite liked to 3-18, so wondering if they're worth shortlisting as a decent budget option ?

    Vudu 5-25 or XTR3i if both around $1100?

    Hi- I already have one of the Vudu's on my MWS, I like it a lot, glass seems decent, I like the turrets, not a massive fan of the illumination, but I picked it up as a demo from Eurooptic for $1199- and I can get another for the same price , but the Burris has been getting so much good...

    Springfield Waypoint 2020 ?

    Looking for a nice-ish, simple 308 OOB bolt action- I'm a bit of a shit shot, and want something decent I can enjoy shooting as I try to be a bit less shit- I was thinking a Sig Cross or Bergara HMR Pro- then this pops up -lot of carbon fibre fanciness going on there- don't know when these will...

    'Nother guy new to bolt guns

    only had this a short while, bought it used on one of the forums, popped an IOR 3.5-18 in IOR low rings on it... Taken it out just 3 times so far, but really, really starting to grow on me. Very much enjoying learning from the info posted in the stickies here. As soon as I make a 5 shot group...

    Suppressors New to me Kimber Super Carry

    Just picked this up this afternoon... the price was right, gently used with just one box through it, so I thought I'd give it a whirl. I do like the idea of a full sized, bobtailed, alloy framed 1911. On paper I'd say this is the most "right" Kimber that's come out of Yonkers lately. No...

    Rifle Scopes if i found 2k to spend...

    on an optic to bung on my 308 POF to go to, say 600-800yrds...what to do. It's a major chunk of change, but then i looked back on the "mixed" bag of optics that I've bought this past 6 years, looked at how many of those i actually still use, did some mental math, cursed somewhat and it got me...

    Rifle Scopes will a 2/3 generation IOR 3-18X likely fail ?

    I've seen a few earlier versions of the FFP 3-18X up for sale, wondered what the odds were of it taking a dump when used on a 308 gas gun. Is it not a question of "if" but "when" ? Or was it a very small percentage of the scopes ? Will IOR fix them ? cheers

    Rifle Scopes IOR 3-18 FFP or 3-18 illuminated...or other ?

    I've a couple of other IORs and they've worked very well for me thus far, I like the range of the 3-18, which is why I'm looking at this scope in particular (though the Viper PST looks appealing if i have the patience to wait until June/July) My level of fieldcraft is about up to telling grass...

    Rifle Scopes IOR Illuminated 3-18 FFP

    hi, am i correct in thinking that the illuminated version of the IOR 3-18X is gen 4 and would address all the prior concerns about reliability ? Are these scopes all mil/mil or is that a special order item ? Many thanks
