I have two custom rifles with SFP scopes on both. I have a new custom coming in in a few weeks and I believe I'm going to get a FFP. I'm going to take on of my SFP and put on this new one, and put a new FFP on my 6.5 CM.
 
Will the FFP scopes have schott glass? You know anything less is terrible right?! It HAS TO HAVE SCHOTT GLASS! ABSOLUTELY HAS TO!

I will say this Phillip, your one persistent fella that doesnt seem to mind the abuse.... Oh, and FFP is the bees knees imo....
 
None of these people know me, they don't know anything about me. So it matters nothing to me what they have to say. But I got a tracking number for my new Phoenix Custom Rifle today!!
 
Good to hear, Can't say that I've ever read anything bad about them. I'm real excited about getting this one. This was one of those rifles on my list of "must haves". Two more on my list of "must haves" is a rifle from Jared Joplin (APA), and a Tac-ops. All I can say is one day semi soon.
 
Hope your new rifle is a shooter Phillip, you'll like the FFP scope on your next precision rig... Lots of good choices out there...
 
I admire Tac-ops perfection. But 308 and 300 win mag fail to inspire me anymore.:)) The 6.5 creedmoor is so damn accurate and doesn't give you a sore shoulder like a 300 win mag.
6.5 creedmoor, 338 Lapua, and 6.5 grendel have become my favorite rounds. The grendel is nothing short of amazing.....still supersonic at 1000yds and capable of dropping an Elk out to 450-500 yds.
Mark larue dropped one at 465 yds and a Burris 1-4. I just noticed he finally started producing them finally. I bought a 308 from him that was a true 1/4" rifle. I was pretty shocked and had one of my swat buddies come over and verify I wasn't delusional. Pretty amazing for an AR platform.
You'll love your creedmoor...great call on that.
Cheers,
Jim L

If I ever get a Tac-ops it will have to be used. I can in no way afford $10,000 for a rifle. I believe they are worth every penny, but I just don't make that much. Same for a Jared Joplin APA they're $6,500 on the cheap end. Then you got to put a $2000+ scope on them .........crap!
