I’m running a Burris XTR PRO with SCR 2 1/4 reticle.

It’s the same scope I run on my 2 centerfire match rifles and I like consistency.

You and he were the first to harass me when I bought my first aluminum Ford in 2018. Stupid me for sharing it here. Lol. Grammar is not a fucking game!

Somehow my first sentence didn't take... damn phones. You could consider a Kollmorgen..

Nice old scope. Is still very capable, somewhat period… and has a small bell.

But I agree with the above: leave it be!

Well, if it comes down to it… and you are defending yourself and your own… shoot for the pelvis and the liver….

One of the biggest differentiators between an MPVO and a crossover scope is that the MPVO should be (ought to be) a natural progression from the LPVO, meaning it is the next step up from LPVO in magnification, size and weight without being overly so. In other words, an MPVO would be in the 2-10/2-12 or at most 2.5-10 with a 2.5-15 being more of a hybrid MPVO/Crossover (same for NF's 2.5-20). But size and weight play more a criteria for the MPVO which is something few manufacturers have paid much attention to (with Steiner's H6Xi probably coming the closest, but too bad they blew it on the reticle). But most important for the MPVO and the Crossover class scope is getting the reticle right, it absolutely has to be usable at bottom magnification and with most manufacturers just throwing in their LR reticles it just doesn't cut it, even if they are using a bright illumination module (helps but not ideal). I still think the March 1.5-15x42 FFP with DFP reticle is one of the best designs on the market to date, even with its compromises, the new ZCO 2-10x30 with HTR reticle is likely another outstanding option but with a fairly hefty weight penalty, the new Leupold CMR-Mil reticle for their 2-10x30 is close, but as you coined the term Beetroot... they "Leupolded it". Sure would be nice to see a "big" manufacturer take notice of this niche market...

Not sure if I made it clear in my post or not but I was meant to say the Viper HD 3-15x44 would make a great crossover scope and the 2-10x42 an MPVO. Assuming a Mil, FFP version of each it wouldn’t take much to make these some of the better options on the market.

The VMR-4 as is would be good enough in the 3-15x44, .05mil thicker like the EBR-2c/2d would be good though.
The 2-10x42 would be great if it had the EBR-9 but even the EBR-1 from the PST G1 2.5-10x32 would be good enough.
Better reticles for each could easily be designed but Vortex already has ones that would work if they wanted to!

Neither scope would be the best, most perfect crossover or MPVO but they’d be some of the better options on the market.
With capped wind, improved glass and less weight (22.5oz and 20oz respectively) they’d be very good options, especially for the money.

Turns an out he wasn’t paying shit… he was getting USAID grants!!! He never spent his money.

But now if he spends his money on a terrorist organization …. He can get charged, stripped of citizenship and sent back to Hungary for trial!

I have a dream, too!!!

You're right. The question is no longer relevant and the world has moved on from TSX projectiles. My fault.

Update 3-20-2025

Did a range day with the 350L, new Nosler 180 grain whitetail country ammunition, and a number of handloads. The wind was downright atrocious, super gusty and variable between 0 and 30mph. It was so strong that two targets blew off the board and the rocking of the target board may have added as much as 5/8 inch in vertical movement. Still, it was one of the first sunny warm spring days and the first that I have had the day off on. So, I was going to enjoy it and I sure did. It felt great to be outside at the range.


Out shooting for the first time this year with the PurePrecision / Proof 350L rifle, Noslers new 180gr whitetail country ammunition, and some handloads.

To be frank, I thought it pretty likely that all my groups today would just suck and I might not learn anything because of the wind. If it hadn’t been my first nice warm chance to be out and I wasn’t so pumped I probably would have stayed home. My calculator said I could see as much as 4” of horizontal from the wind and I could see the 5/8” of vertical from the target flopping as well. I was not overwhelmed with confidence looking through the scope and watching the target flopping up and down more than half an inch. Big groups on a day like today just don’t tell you a whole lot about how your ammo is performing. Much to my surprise, the groups weren't uniformly bad though. I got some pretty decent performance with some Hornady 165gr FTX handloads. I seem to be in a range of seating depths that this bullet is OK with and I may be nearing an end point with what I think I can get with it. I expect I will be able to put together a set of groups that average better than 1” before too long.

I also shot a box of the new, hot off the presses, Nosler 180gr whitetail country ammo. This ammo got the worst of the wind conditions. Both of the targets that blew off the board did so while I was testing this ammo. Fortunately, this target wasn’t one of the liberated ones and a few of the groups came out pretty decent. I won’t be surprised if I can actually average better than 1” groups with this Nosler. It’s SD was also pretty reasonable at 12.9fps. As for the one giant group, I’m surprised more groups didn’t get blown open today.

Anyhow, I hope to have the video version of the Vectronix review up soon and perhaps do a company site visit in the next couple weeks.

I have both. Honestly you can’t go wrong with either of them. If you like a challenge shoot 223 at distance. They’re both super accurate.

Honestly, who the fuck wants Canada. Basically, the eastern half of this frozen bucket of shit is filled with assholes who did not support the American revolution. Tens of thousands of Brits packed their shit and moved north after years of treason and rat-fucking the Continental Army and George Washington. Then you have an entire province of French speaking morons and do we need a few million cheese-eating surrender monkeys? I vote Hell no. The further north you go, the more welfare it costs to get unemployed tundra losers through the winter. Yeah, once you hit Alberta you find some useful natural resources and some decent people who love freedom, guns, hunting and eat beef at every meal but that tapers off drastically as you hit the B.C. cunts and assholes and their Chinese masters. The fucking Chinese Communist Party owns British Columbia outright. Even Bigfoot stays out of the province because he has too much respect for himself.

Imagine adding tens of millions of social welfare assholes who contribute almost nothing to the greater good of a new nation that goes to the North Pole. 2/3rds of these assholes are worse than democrats. Let them stay a worthless, retarded northern cousin.

Just got these in this week. I love the idea of buds but hate the foamie tips that never seal great. Found these molded tips that will accept whatever model of ear bud you have.

So a while back I got some Peltor buds off of here, and went to my Sam’s club and had some molds made for $80 bucks and sent them in. 2-3 weeks later they showed up. Just wearing at the house they feel great and comfortable but have yet to wear at a match.

That's an interesting option I haven't seen yet. I assume you have to take them apart to charge?
