    I Spy New Baby Razor G3 4-24

    I don't think Vortex would be guilty of it, but it's kind of surprising how many modern reticles still have .5 and 1 marks only on the Y axis. Kahles and Leica come to mind readily.

    New CHAD clone from Preece.

    The only similarities I see is that they're welded together, similar size, and same number of ports. BJ's ports are completely different, have steeper baffles, and has a tuner built in.

    Vortex RazorHD Gen III 6-36x56 vs NF ATACR 7-35x56

    These pop up on the px semi frequently. More so a couple years ago. 30% off map is right in the $2200ish range

    Tariff effects on imported optics

    You can buy USO FDN series or the XTR Pro I guess. Even then, I'm pretty sure they're getting lenses and reticles from OEMs outside the USA. Nightforce ATACRs based out of Idaho, but using parts from Japan, I think. Same with the Razor. Not sure about Leupold, but I suspect it's a lot of the same.

    Tariff effects on imported optics

    Because we didn't tolerate Vortex's MSRP and consequent street prices increases last year, or ZCO's increases, or 30% chassis price increases since 2021, Powder prices jumping 25%, etc.? If everyone has to raise prices, there's nowhere else to take your business. You will tolerate it, because...

    Vortex RazorHD Gen III 6-36x56 vs NF ATACR 7-35x56

    You just described things that matter to some people a lot more than "clarity". I use Nightforce and USO over zco, tangent, and vortex, specifically because of reticle choice.

    Vortex RazorHD Gen III 6-36x56 vs NF ATACR 7-35x56

    I've seen two Theos in the PX over the last week around $2k.

    Vortex RazorHD Gen III 6-36x56 vs NF ATACR 7-35x56

    OK, for sanity's sake I went back and checked a couple of those videos, and I stand corrected. Area 419's video called it a "Three thousand dollar tangent that's not as pretty", not a $2k Tangent. Covertnoob called it a $2500 scope. I can't remember what DLO had to say about it, because, I'm not...

    Awesome suppressor muzzle brake front end attachment by Recoilx

    Just bought a Hyperion - hoping one of these gets made to go with it!

    Tariff effects on imported optics

    I'm not counting on it, but I'd love to see it, if investors and consumers are willing to bet with their cash.

    Tariff effects on imported optics

    I wouldn't mind seeing the Greeley and North Carolina, Oregon, and Idaho optics companies getting more into an OEM role

    Vortex RazorHD Gen III 6-36x56 vs NF ATACR 7-35x56

    When it launched, it was standard to get one for $2100. Rare is the guy that's buying Nightforce, vortex, Leupold, USO, etc for regular pricing. Everyone knows what the mil/leo or cert prices are. The used prices on all of these is reflected. On launch, every video on it talked about it being...

    No love for the 300 WSM?

    Too mainstream. Gotta do the WSM for science. WSM with 215s/220s is easy to tune. It's similar to asking why not 6 Creedmoor with 112 Match Burners, when a BR/BRA with 105 Hybrids is easier to load for and get good accuracy. I shoot 130 Hybrids out of my 6.5x47 because they grouped better than...

    Night Vision Vortex Impact 4000 Rifle/Rail mounted Range finder???

    So this has been out for coming up on 2 years now. I've got a pair of Fury HDs that I use for ranging these days, and kind of wonder if having a spotter with a reticle paired with the impact would let me get more precise ranging than the giant glowing donut in the binos, and give me good...

    No love for the 300 WSM?

    RL23 seemed to be the magic powder for it. I've only got 2 lbs of it from my .260 AI days, so I'm looking at other stuff. Seems like H4831SC is what a lot of bench resters are using with 215s. I wanted to use Retumbo, but only found H1000 in stock. I'm not familiar enough with the VV powders to...
