    Burris XTR Pro Parallax Issue

    I recently sold off my trusty old Vortex AMG to pick up a Burris XTR Pro for a range only rifle. I like pretty much everything about the Burris except that when adjusting the parallax for sharpest focus, the yardage markings on the dial consistently shows a little less than a third of the...

    1-8 LVPO or 2-10 MVPO for ar15?

    I built an 18" Wydel lightweight AR15. I want some ideas for rifle scopes. Thank you. I reload 223, so I can shoot bulk 55gr or 75gr boat tail hollow point. I work 5 days a week, live in midtown, and don't have the luxury to hunt (maybe once a year). Usages: Mid-range training (lower cost on...

    SOLD Kahles Parallax Spinner

    Bought this from a Hide member for my second Kahles, and then sold the Kahles. :ROFLMAO: This is the universal one, so it can be used on a number of the Kales scopes (K525i, K318i, K624i, or K1050 MOAK). The thing to notice with that is that it does *not*have the distance markings on top like...

    Best scope for clarity

    Hi all, I have just acquired my rifle license in the UK and am looking to start off right and buy one of the absolute best optics I can buy. I would say I'd be 50/50 hunting deer and vermin or target shooting. What I'm looking for is scopes with the absolute best clarity. I was thinking a...

    Rifle Scopes What magnification do you set focus/diopter with...

    Ahead of the arrival of my ZCO 527 today on the brown truck, I was researching this subject a little bit in an effort to get the most out the optic. I heard ZCO recommends setting the focus at the lowest magnification within the range. I had previously been told the opposite and to use max...

    Rifle Scopes Riddle me this on two shooters one rifle instruction

    Hello all, On a proven Rem700 16" BB with a Leupold Mark 4 Illum TMR M3 pushing 175 gr. SMK. With this rifle a 1 MOA is achievable in short order and it has been doped. The problem here though is I have been teaching someone on it and they consistently shoot 4 mils low. When I get back on the...

    Hey all, This is my first post here, I've been lurking for a couple of years and am sifting through scope options for a few different rifles. This got me wondering as to the usefulness of certain scope configurations for various roles. I'm looking for one, a lightweight AR "recce" type rifle...

    Rifle Scopes New parallax knob for Premier scopes?

    A few months ago there was talk (and prototypes) of a slip-on ring for the Premier Reticles parallax knob that would indicate relative distance. I e-mailed PR at that time and was told it was still in the works. Anyone know the current status? I don't want to bother PR again, as they're busy...

    Rifle Scopes Parallax Markings

    Sorry, this is not brand specific. Are factory parallax markings generally accurate on decent scopes? Would it be unwise to rely on the factory markings for known-distances?

    Rifle Scopes How critical is parallax

    My buddy has the opportunity to buy a VXIII 4.5-14X50 for $360. It's brand new with the duplex reticle.....the only thing is that it's not the long range version meaning it doesn't have the parallax adjustment turret. He's new to long range and so it would be nice to spend the money...
