Scope Ring Height question (Mk12-ish w/ offset dot)
I just picked up a Nightforce 2.5-10x32 for my Mk12 inspired gun and looking for the right rings. This may not be 100% clone correct, but I'd like the option to add an offset red dot on a Larue or other mount from time to time, and want to make sure the scope is mounted high enough for the...- StevethePirate

XTR III Illuminated in my hands
Great, thanks for the explanation. I agree with the use case for illumination. I think for me, I was hoping for a bit more usability as an SPR scope where a lower magnification or SFP scope might really be more appropriate, or at the very least a scope like this with an offset red dot for...- StevethePirate

XTR III Illuminated in my hands
Birddog, are you able to make out the illumination outdoors? I'm certainly not expecting "daylight bright" but I'd hope for it to be at least visible in daylight settings where it's overcast or looking into darker woodlines. Thanks for the responses!- StevethePirate

XTR III Illuminated in my hands
I just received mine. So far the glass looks really good and the controls are very nice. Like others, I think the reticle looks a bit thinner in person than I was expecting (needing more of an SPR scope than a PRS scope, was hoping this would fit the bill for both). Regarding illumination...- StevethePirate

Rifle Scopes Vortex LHT 4.5-22x50
Thanks! My only real concern about it is the reported zero shift with impacts, as I tend to not be particularly easy on stuff. Got some thinking to do- StevethePirate

Geissele 16” CHF Barrel: A Quick Look
My 12.5" Centurion oddly doesn't like 77gr OTMs much, but absolutely loves 75gr American Eagle. Shoots a hair over 1moa 5 shot groups. It may just be a thing where the barrel just doesn't like a particular load.- StevethePirate

Rifle Scopes Vortex LHT 4.5-22x50
I've been looking at scopes that would work on an AR15 SPR that would be at home both in the field as well as shooting some Quantified Performance or IWI gas gun matches. This definitely looks like it could bridge those two well. I had been leaning heavily toward an XTRIII, but with this scope...- StevethePirate

Rifle Scopes Any better option for 3-18 at $1k than XTR3?
A couple questions. First, I was looking to order one of the new Illuminated SCR2 3-18 versions. I deal enough with reduced light that illumination matters to me. However, it gives me a bit of pause if those scopes are going to be Philippine made scopes instead of USA made. Is there anything I...- StevethePirate

SPR Optics in a mid-price tier?
I'm looking to upgrade quality and decrease weight from my current PST2 3-15 on my 16" 5.56 SPR rifle. Most shooting would be 600 yards and in, but I wouldn't rule out shooting a little further past that, understanding the limitations of a 16" 5.56 gun. I'm mainly looking to keep things...- StevethePirate
