    Night Vision PVS 14 vs D740

    PVS-14 and a laser... The only way to go, man. Can't land nav with a weapon mounted NVG setup. Best all purpose NV setup, imo (14/laser). White light capable with your firing eye exposed, non firing is looking through the NOD, best of all worlds. Light, rugged. Obviously you can run...

    Night Vision PVS 14 users

    normal. I used to adjust my 14 away a little bit from my face when I was workin real hard, seemed to work well. All the sweat coming off of my face would condensate on the ocular of the 14. Seems that the heat from my eye/face/breath would cause it to fog up. Not sure about chemicals...

    Rifle Scopes Voertex Optics Never Ever Again!!!

    I offered this guy 1000 shipped for this nightforce and by my calc 1000 isn't that much more that 750 or 800 for a vortex http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/optics-sale/223076-re-f-s-nightforce-nxs-3-5-15x56-mil-mil.html I'm not arguing with you. you have a point with if you don't have the...

    Rifle Scopes Voertex Optics Never Ever Again!!!

    Good advice... wish I would have taken it on some stuff I've purchased in the past. Do it right the first time, saves you $$ and ass-pain in the future. Was interested in Vortex a few months ago, did some reading. Found a bunch of threads/comments/etc about how great they are for the...

    Night Vision Anyone have an ANPEQ plus a light setup on their carbine/rifle?

    I'm using this on a couple rifles. Small, IR, has a safety block over the switch. Only 150 bucks, works pretty good. Switch for IR or White LED WML White/IR - Carbon Black | Weapon Mounted Light | Infrared Weapon Light | INFORCE® We bought a bunch for this last trip over and only had one...

    Long range elk caliber in a s/a?

    Another vote for 308! You can shoot it all day at the range, barrel life, ammo is cheap(er), etc. 5-600 with a 308 for elk is no big deal. I don't even use my 7mm mag for elk anymore... never shot one past maybe 300 yds. Too much gun

    Rifle Scopes Need help with Mark 6 rings height for a MARS rail

    I've used Leupold lows with a 3.5-10x40 on a MARS rail, no issues. I'd probably go mediums to be safe, man

    Range Report Shot groups....3,5,10 rounds?

    if 100 is the max range, I like to throw a bunch of 1" pasties on a big piece of butcher block paper. after confirming zero, of course. $.02 -I this this website has essentially the same thing, the 'Dot Drill'. downloadable free of charge, if I remember correctly. Just my opinion, but you...

    Range Report effects of sun and/or mirage on POI

    did you adjust the scope's obj or ocular at all after shot 1? Yah, mirage can definitely be a pain at greater distances when conditions are right for it. I've just kinda quartered the best i could and held for wind then let her fly. I read somewhere that to test this apparent poa/poi shift...

    Range Report Power pro 4000 mr. 300 win mag 208 amax

    I use it on my 300wsm. Fast and clean, my progressive loves this ball stuff. Pushin 190s at 3050. Has to bring it down a bit, they were goin 3100 with 65 gr but a few cases were slow comin out of the chamber. I use the 2000 mr for 308, that is fast as well. i love these PP x000 powders

    Is scope mounting rocket science?

    the revolver is set up for the suicide option. not a big deal

    Rifle Scopes Best zero stop?

    Yes, the new mark 4, not the 8. sorry about that

    Rifle Scopes Best zero stop?

    Nightforce, IMO. THe new Leupold ZS on my MK8 6.5-20 SUCKS. THere is this collar that you tighten down once your zero is adjusted, then the cap slides down over the turret and collar into one of the notches in the collar, so you can't set it exactly where you want. In addition, if you bring...

    Rifle Scopes How to ID shifting recticle?

    Set up scope for eye relief, check your ocular, go to the range, adjust obj, check for parallax, shoot. outside of that i'm not sure how to check how well an optic works. Run a track test. of course; i'm sayin all this assuming the shooter can deliver every time if you eye socket is warm at...

    Night Vision Autogated tube use in non-dark environments

    daylight cover, no big deal I have seen a few older 14s with those burn-in type 'scars' in field field of view, though. probably from headlights and not using the day cover. Autogated ones don't do it as much I think but it's just not smart to use night vision at day without the cover, imo...

    SW AMMO UPDATE THREAD

    I just returned from trying out your reloads... Impressed, thanks SW Ammo. Shot identical to M118LR, wished i brought my phone to take some pics but I printed exactly like DocterBen's target like above. But you already knew this because you guys know what you're doing in this biz!! Thanks...

    Rifle Scopes Why all the craze for reticles in the first focal plane

    Shooter preference imo. Shooting at night with a clip on nv or thermal? nice to have a FFP scope when you need to back off on the mag under very low/pitch black conditions based on nv limitations. If you only want to use holds, obviously... If you wanna dial then go for it. Either way works...

    Night Vision Recommend me a good NV scope.

    Whichever NV device you go with, make sure you have a FFP scope because when you gotta back off from max power on your day scope at night you're still good to go with your reticle/holds. Save up and buy a clip on, $.02 Obviously if you buy a dedicated NV scope/optic this isn't an issue but clip...
