    Rifle Scopes What is your favorite rifle scope?

    Really like my new MK4HD 6x24, impressive scope on the 6.5CM. Leupold has hit a home run! Like my PSTG2 5x25 with the 22-250. Have a fun stubby Leupold VX Freedom 1.5x4 on a Mannilicher rifle, it looks the part of a safari gun. Burris Predator Quest on my truck gun is serving well as well as...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold Mark 4HD

    2nd session shooting Mk4HD 6x24 MOA today out to to 515yds. Very impressed with the scope. Coming out of a PSTG2. Purchased from Cabelas for $1308 including tax (Vetern’s and other discounts). Really like the turrets as I’m a dialer (Mk 5HD was weird with push button elevation and capped...

    Rifle Scopes So I bought a “Just As Good”, Burris XTR3

    I have several Burris scopes. Bought a new XTR3 that I mounted up on the rifle and when I went to set my zero stop I noticed the turret locking allen head screw was stripped from the factory so I returned to Burris and they fixed it. Since my PST Gen 2 was off the rifle, I compared both...

    Need help picking my first 7mm PRC rifle... Browning, Ruger, Bergara, other?

    great questions cunnerman! I too am in the market for 7PRC. My 6.5CM is good to 1400-1500 yds and have done 1 mile several times but it is not optimal. If you are going to be 1500yds are less, a 6.5CM can be optimal. The challenge with 7PRC is its targeted towards the hunting crowd, thus in...

    Burris Customer Services at its worst, please help/advise. (UPDATE: 09DEC23)

    Sorry to hear about your experience with CS. Mine has just been the opposite over the last few years. I run 3 Burris optics. I bent one scope tube using crappy weaver rings and Burris sent me a new scope FOC. Had new XTR that wouldn’t hold zero, parrelax issues and had a stripped dial...

    Best optic in the $2k range

    I‘m down to the same choosing between Razor G3, MK5 or Zeiss S3. Would like to do a S3 due to internal elevation range, but in case of damaging a scope like I did on my PST (bent the tube when dropped rifle on the scope‘s back on concrete), nice to have a warranty that covers accidents.

    Burris Fullfield E1 4.5-14 x 42mm with Ballistic Plex

    I have two of the Burris SFP 4.5x14. One Predator Quest E1 with BDC in a 223 truck gun and one on a Ruger No 1 25-06 Deer/Antelope rife with MOA Long Range Reticle. Both are awesome scopes.

    Mea Culpa. I should have read the policy more closely, I didn’t not catch that returns are for in store credit. Not a dig against Liberty Optics, just make sure one is aware of the policy 10/9/2022 Your satisfaction is important to us. If you are not completely satisfied with your purchase...

    FYI, if you get a scope from Liberty and decide you don’t like it, even if unmounted Liberty has a no return policy…

    What part of the rifle do you level when mounting a Scope - does it matter?

    I’m a bit detailed when I level a scope, my process: 1. “Lightly” mount the scope and rings and confirm eye relief is acceptable at max/min zoom. Place a pencil mark on the scope to mark location of rings,p.Also ensure rail is torqu’ed to spec. 2. remove scope, place rifle in vise(like a tipon...

    Rifle Scopes Burris XTR3i Feedback

    The original one that had the broken turret and wouldn’t hold zero was one of the first shipped months ago. I had it sitting in the box for a few months before I mounted it. The 2nd one was provided by Burris a few weeks ago, I never mounted it, used it to compare to the PST G2.

    Legit Question

    Many thanks for the excellent responses. My initial question may have caused a little bit of wobble in the steering. Let me clarify my question: MarkandSamAfterWork don’t seem to be “lobbing artillery” in their 6.5CM 3000 yd video. They also have other videos connecting ELR with other...
