Rifle Scopes 4-16x50 FFP,MIL/MIL On the Way

[bolloxinaspanner]

SWFA just emailed me that my Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50mm Mil/Mil scope is in the mail. Just in time for the BRRC Team Challenge in late March. The 16x42 Super Sniper is ok but just barely. I'm most looking forward to the improved glass and fully bitchen reticle to improve my ranging skills. The zero stop feature was the deal sealer, oh yeah, and the price.

April, 2010. I asked, back in the dark days of 2010, where I was on the list and the replied that I was #9.

I believe he speaks of the improvement over his previous scope.

Good Luck with the build!

Did you go ffp?

I always say once you go ffp, you hardly ever go back, I like the fact that even if you dial up you can always use your hash marks for holding off for movers or a change in wind with that at any power setting as well.

I’m running a 4-16x50 ffp PST ( which is true and crisp) on a Rem 700 tactical in a 308 with a 20 moa base

Also my PST and Razor are both mil,mil MRAD scopes

In a few weeks here my son and I are heading out to Thunder Valley Precision, we will find out what the limits are as far as the PST with the 308.

The Razor is set up on a 338 Barrett and has been used for sometime now, but the Rem 700 Tactical with the heavy 20” barrel is a new build,
