Looking to see if someone has an extra McMaster & Carr spring they would like to sell.

Hey all,

I know this question has been asked a couple times and I've been reading through some recent threads, but hoping for folks with experience on a few of these optics to chime in. In short I have a proven 20" SAMR-ish .223 gun that I love but just haven't shot much in the past few years.

So I pilfered the old school mildot SWFA 3-9 I had on it and ending up selling that along with a .308 bolt gun to a buddy getting into hunting.

Well I'd like to get an optic back on the rifle and I figured there's probably something out there these days for around $1K that'd have some nice updates compared to the old reliable SWFA. And wouldn't you know it there's just as many trade off's now as there was back then.

I'd be curious if anyone had any $.02 on my considerations here or if I'm missing something I'd appreciate it. Use case is primarily a bit of target shooting, coyote hunting, and maybe a gas gun match from time to time.

Things I like (for this gun):

FFP
2-10x-ish magnification
Length around 13" or less
Weight around 25oz or less
Illumination
Zero Stops / Locking Turrets
Not super busy reticles
Adjustable Parallax (nice to have but not required for this gun)

Things I don't like (for this gun):
Unreliable things
Heavy / Long Scopes
Super busy reticles / should be hunter friendly


I have a range for sure but this is what I'm considering:

_________________________________________

Leupold Mark 4HD M5C3 FFP TMR Illuminated
~$1000

My initial replacement thought. Love the size/weight, features, reticle is acceptable for me.
Concerned about tracking and reliability based on Rokslide tests for the money. Conflicting reports on glass quality for the price.

_________________________________________

Steiner H6Xi 2-12x42mm STR-MIL FFP
~$1500

Love the size/weight, features, glass is probably excellent, bit spendy (diminishing returns?)
Reticle is a bit busy for me and feel it might get lost hunting

_________________________________________


Trijicon Credo 2-10x36 FFP w/ Red MRAD
~$1000

Good size/weight if just a touch long, Japanese glass
Reticle a bit busier than I'd like, unsure if better that the Leupy for the same price?

_________________________________________


Athlon Helos BTR GEN2 2-12x42mm AHMR2 FFP IR MIL
~$400

Like the size/weight, features, generally like the reticle, ranging capability is really cool, cheap means more money rolled into scope on a different rifle faster, or less buyer's remorse if someone ever comes out with a banger MPVO.
Don't love a 1 MOA dot, biggest concerns is on quality and reliability, glass is said to be OK, seems like a dice roll.

_________________________________________

Vortex PST Gen 2 2-10x FFP Mil
~$750

Like the size/weight, generally like the reticle, cheaper than other options, Vortex warranty
Discontinued/Somewhat Hard To Find, glass said to be OK

_________________________________________

Bushnell LRTSi 3-12 FFP
~$800?

Like the weight, a touch long, G3 tree is ok, said to have great Japanese glass, should have bought one years ago during the blow out.
Discontinued/ Very Hard To Find, read a few horror stories about Bushnell warranties on these and replacing them with worse options

_________________________________________

Maven RS1.2 - 2.5-15x44 FFP
$~1100

Excellent performance in Rokslide tests, Good glass, good hunting reticle, great magnification range
Definitely a long boy, a touch on the heavy side, temptation to slap on a bolt-gun hunting rifle instead

Edit: To be clear, I expected to see zero shift between barrels, just trying to determine what would be considered excessive.

I just started using an AXSR after getting set up with one with several barrels of different calibers. Had a question after my first range trip and thought I'd post this since I don't have any experience with this platform and according to most threads I've found this doesn't seem like the norm.

The gun came with the .300 Norma barrel and I also got a 20" .308 AI barrel, A 27" .338 Lapua AI barrel and a 24" Stainless Proof 6.5 Creedmoor barrel.
What is considered a typical zero shift when swapping between calibers or is there even a typical outcome?
I zeroed the gun with the .308 barrel (175 FGMM) and when I switched to the .300 Norma barrel (215 Berger OTM ammo) it was less than .2 mil off the .308 zero which is fantastic.

When I switched to the AI .338 Lapua barrel (Hornady 285 ELDM) it was 9.5” low and 4.5” left. Would this be considered within acceptable limits or does this sound unusual for this rifle?
I actually thought I did something wrong installing the .338 barrel so I loosened the locking bolt and barrel and re tightened everything and the shots went back into the same group. I understand not to expect it to hold the same zero between barrels and calibers, just wondering if this is typical.

Foundation Centurion cut for Defiance short actions. Color is dark distressed and is cut for Hawkins DBM M5 bottom metal. Package includes: stock, Hawkins DMB M5 bottom metal, Gray Ops bag stop, 22 piece brass weight set, 22 piece lead weight set, L3I DINA weight (installed), spare arca and anschutz rail with hardware.

I put this together a while back to keep in my range bag as a cheat sheet but I made a couple of changes to it so I thought I'd share it with you all, some may find it useful. The theory is that it can help a shooter with a basic carbine make accurate sight corrections, set up a fairly accurate ballistic profile if you don't know the exact velocity, help analyze shot groups, help estimate and compensate for wind, range estimate, and do a little bit of maintenance if something comes loose or you're moving stuff around. I taped mine up with packing tape, folded in to 1/4's and slipped it into a pocket on my range bag.
