Surly I am missing something. But I really want to love the Vortex Gen2 Viper 2x10. The only thing I don’t get is why you would want a LPVO in FFP? I think FFP LPVO optics are not practical. If you are shooting long enough distances to be using holdover are you not maxed out on magnification on...

I’m fixing to convert my AR rifle to either a 6.5 Grendel or a 6mm ARC. I’d like to upgrade my Vortex 1x6 Viper to a 2x10 for a little more magnification. I regularly have opportunity to stretch its legs. I will also hunt western Nebraska deer with this gun. So I thought a 2x10 would do the...

Why can’t anyone get a 2x10 right? I also confused why FFP on this optic, along with the Vortex Viper Gen 2. I like the capped windage turret but imo the elevation should be locking. Also if your going to put illumination on this make it a dot, not an illuminated reticle. They are close... But...

The EXPs2 is 3 months old. It is the OPMOD version from optics planet, tan in color, green reticle. Age of G30 is unknown, it is in good shape. It is on a ARMS flip to side mount. $750 cash for both or trade for a low power variable. I’d add cash for a gen 2 Razor 1x6 with Mil reticle, May even...

Roger & thanks! Since figuring out that slamming the bolt down caused the weapon to de-cock it has not been much of an issue. There was a little rubber bumper that I see fell out the day I started having a problem. I may get a replacement just cause. I have done some reloading for my rifles in...

My take away from the weekend was this. I need to be more organized record data do all your 100yd work at home make sure to set up steel where you can see it from your firing position bring cleaning kit never depend on cell service or internet work fundamentals on EVERY shot!

Out again this morning & started at the 100yd line again. Was going to shoot a tall target test. I couldn't get my rifle to group worth a shit. I had some weird vetrical stringing. My zero had shifted 1 1/2 lower again. Seems like when I dial up, then back down & hit my zero stop my zero shoots...

Went out to western Nebraska today. I had a list of tasks I wanted to complete. 1- zero 2- correct turret value in AB 3- true muzzle velocity 4- shoot like a BAMF at long range i got a good zero alright. Had to reset my zero stop from the last time I zeroed it. Immediately started having...

Roger that Doc! I'll give it a shot this weekend. Thanks!

Thanks guys!

Got it!

Roger, next time. Thanks!

When I said that (I) am 3.5" high at 402 yds I meant.... I am just starting out with a gun. I have an unknown muzzle velocity. I gave my Applied Ballistics app the muzzle velocity off the box to start out with (2700fps) I was shooting at a 500yd range with limited light left in the day, the...

I thought of this as I was tearing down for the night...

Roger

Is there a way to convert inches to mil at a givin distance? I am 3.5" high at 402yds. Id like to correct this mathematically before I go out again.

How are you doing it?

My contribution to my goal today was to build a 4'x8' target stand.

This is my rig. Brand new Savage LRP in 6.5 Creedmore. 26" heavy barrel, light flutes, accutrigger, H&S Precision stock. This is how it sat in the safe since January. Opticless.

Howdy. Nedceifus here. I am going to use this thread as a tool. A learning tool & documentation for myself. Because of my tendency to learn things the hard way, I may be able to help others,,, by making a lot of mistakes. I am not very smart or tech savvy. I do not have any (long range)...
