    Night Vision Used NVD values?

    Many years ago I sold quite a few gen 2 and gen 3 PVS-4s and NAIT Pythons. Based on what I sold them for then I would say the PVS-4 is worth $1400-$1700 and the Python about $850.

    Rifle Scopes Leupold, Why No Love?

    I have several Leupold products including two MK-4 scopes. What I don't like about the MK4 1.5-5 MR/T is the turrets. They are mushy and hard to see in a covered shooting range in full daylight. The turrets on my older MK 4 3.5x10 have come loose several times. The set screws don't seem to do...

    New DPMS G II Recon it is 308

    Im still looking for that great load for my G2 Hunter but 43.5 grains of IMR 4064/175 SMK/LC match brass gives me about 1.10-1.25 MOA. Hornady 165 SST about 1.5 MOA, Nosler 165 Accubonds about the same. I purchased a box of Lapua brass and Berger 168 VLD hunting bullets. After I purchased the...

    Night Vision Help identifying a Vintage Military Starlight Scope

    Cascade I believe but it's about the same size as a AN/PVS-4 or AN/PVS-502 so not quite the boat anchor like the AN/PVS-2.

    Night Vision Help identifying a Vintage Military Starlight Scope

    It's a Oldelft HV 5x80 gen1 weapon sight. It was made in the Netherlands in the 70's-early 80's. I have owned a couple Odelft NVD's over the years. Very well made but old technology. Not particularly rare. I would place the value around $400-$500 tops.

    Night Vision Difference between a Simrad KN-200, KN 250, and KN-203?

    I need to know if there is any difference in the standard male dovetails between the KN-203 and KN 200/250. Badger Ord. confirmed that their caps will fit the KN-200/250. They were not familiar with the KN-203. SPA has told me that the Badger caps will not fit the KN 203 properly. If anyone can...

    300 blackout

    That is using JBM ballistics. I use Strelok in the field on my Android phone and find them to be very close.

    300 blackout

    There sure is a lot of misinformation in this thread. If anyone is only getting 2000 FPS muzzle velocity in the 300 Blackout from 110-130 grain bullets either your chronograph is malfunctioning or your reloading process needs review. I have a 300 Blk with a 16 inch 5R barrel. I get 2500 FPS with...

    Loose primers?

    During my priming process any case that allows primer seating with no resistance gets tossed into the recycle bin. Any case that gives minimal resistance gets a big red strip e across the case head. This lets me know it gets one more firing before getting recycled.

    Re: Leupy Mark AR 3x9x40 or Burris Fullfield II Tac? All things being equal I would go with the manufacturer that has the lions share of military and police contracts.
