    Rifle Scopes Mil reticle question

    I have been using the USO MPR Mil reticle and have found it user friendly for ranging but have not had a chance to use the Gen 2 XR. I was wondering if anyone has compared the two and what you like or dislike about either one. Thanks.

    Rifle Scopes Mil Reticle, MOA dial?

    I'm new to this board, learning about marksmanship and trying to soak up as much info as I can... The entire MOA and Mil Dot math required zero a rifle has been almost voodoo to me, (figuring out distance conversions off target to clicks) until I ran across Lowlight's article on using a...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell 3200 10X Mil Dot Real World Elevation?

    I have two of the Bushnell 10X Mil Dot scopes, and out of curiosity I decided to check how much internal elevation travel the reticles actually have. They are advertised as having 100 MOA of travel, quite a bit for a 1" tube scope. Testing my own, one has only 72 MOA, and the other has 80...

    Widener's mil spec bullets?

    Has anyone had experience with these three bulk mil-spec bullets sold by Widener's?

    Rifle Scopes Question on using MIL DOT 2.5-10x Nightforce

    I've got a 2.5-10x 24mm Nightforce. It has the close range mildot reticle. At what magnification is the scope meant to be set at to use the mildot's accurately? 10x I am guessing? I cannot find it stated anywhere in the Nightforce literature.

    Rifle Scopes What mil reticle do most prefer?

    I think I might be leaning toward the USO Canada Mil reticle. What would be the down side of this. After using my NPR1 reticle to try to range at far distances I think I would like the 1/5 mil hash marks available on the reticle. Thanks, Steve

    Rifle Scopes how do you drive a scope with moa knobs and mil re

    how do you drive a scope that the knobs (MOA) that don't match the reticle (mil). Seems to be an awful lot of US Optics set up that way in the classifieds lately. All I've been exposed to are turret less Leupolds with duplex crosshairs (a VX-III 4.5-14x and an LPS 1.5-6 all on hunting rifles)...
