scopes

I've been shooting about a year now and working on finishing up a custom Remmy. I shoot out to 500yds right now and got a great deal going on a nikon monarch 6-24 sf for $400. is it worth it and will it get the job done? how does Nikon glass compare to the other major players?

Just got word from Bushnell that TRS-1 scopes have been shipped to me. If you are on the backorder list, I will contact you on arrival. Thanks! Donnie

I just bought a Remington 700 PSS that I need to be a general purpose bolt gun, for hunting as well as (god forbid) tactical (SHTF) use. I am a newbie to precision rifles but have plenty of trigger time on ARs and other tactical rifles with ACOGs and other magnified optics, but all the CQB...

My buddy is looking for a scope for hunting hogs at abround 100-150yds. He's got a 22-250. Whats a good scope at a decent price? I guess Gen 3 is the way to go. Ive never looked though an Nv scope myself. Whos has the best prcies?

Anyone here on the Hide have any experience with the Rogue Super Scope Roguesuperscopes.com

Sorry if this has been beaten to death, but I searced and didnt find a whole lot. Was browsing the funshow yesterday and have been eyeballing the Osprey scope booth. Guy was telling me that the glass is top quality, laser etched and made by the same company as Leupold. 200-250 dollar range is...

I would appreciate any opinions or comparisons on the new Bushnell Excursion FLP Spotting Scopes. I know they are offered in 15-40x60 and 20-60x80. How do they compare with the Leupold Tactical or Bushnell Elite 20-60x70? Any response are greatly appreciated because I'm considering a purchase of...

anyone with a nightforce ever have to lap tps rings to get their scopes to fit?

How do the Weaver V-series compare to the Nikon Buckmasters and Super Sniper series? I know the SS are fixed power but I am asking about optical quality and really overall quality. There are a lot of us who can't buy a NF, USO, S&B or other top-end scope. We end up aggravating some people by...

I have spotted 2 scopes for sale, and probably need to move on one before it sells. One is a leupold VX III 6.5-20x40 LR. The other is a Bushnell 4200 6-24x50 Tactical. Both are simarly priced. After reading several posts lately about Leupold quality slipping this isn't as easy to decide...

<span style="font-weight: bold">New Vortex Viper Mildot Scopes have Arrived</span> We just received our shipment of the: Vortex Viper 6.5-20x44 Mil Dot Matte, PA 30mm Tube, Target Turrets & Vortex Viper 6.5-20x50 Mil Dot Matte, PA 30mm Tube, Target Turrets Please feel free to give us a...

I searched but found no "personal experience" answers. I've had more than my share of scope failures so at this point I have decided to get what I consider a perfect scope for my needs, Heritage 5-25. Unfortunately I can't afford more than one, so the question is with a high quality QD mount or...

When at the range yesterday there was a BR competition of some sort. They were wrapping when I got there. As I usually do I walked down the line kind of checking out the weapons and meeting guys I havent met before. On of the guys had a 36X(I think that is what he said) Sightron. The scope...

Whats the word on the SII Big Sky? I have one in 3.5-10x42. It is really clear and the fit and finish is great. I like the finger adjustable turrets, I just dont really like the thick reticle. Do they track well? I have heard some issues on the durability. I cant afford anything more...

I just purchased a new GAP Crusader and it is coming with 34mm badger USMC "issue" rings. I realize this should be an easy question for you guys, but what scope brands make a 34mm tube? I really want a Nightforce 5.5-22x but they are 30mm. The rifle is also coming with 1" badger USMC "issue"...

Our department has a three of the older tactical scopes with one inch tubes, target turrets but not M1 style and duplex rectical. I went to Leupolds sight and could not find them listed there. I know they made some upgrades to these now and no longer offer exactly what we have. I think these...

I plan to buy a nice used GAP or Surgeon Rifle in June and likely a USO scope (Used also) to go with it. Now all I know about a scope is you look through it, line the target up in the middle of the cross hairs and squeeze. I want to understand what I should look for in a scope that will go on a...

Can any one give me some input on the Viper series scopes .I was thinking of the 4x12x40 side focus.are they any good ?

Just traded into a Pecar and am wanting to know where to find replacement reticules. If anybody has a source or a website that would be great.

anyone have experience using one? thoughts on them? I am considering a try with the 5x20, but I am seeking feedback on those who have used one. thanks.
