    Rifle Scopes What Scope And Mount Is Suitable For A SCAR 17S

    I've been in this boat for a few years trying to figure out what I want for my 17s as well. I started out with a Bobro 34mm mount and a Bushy 1-8.5, but had my first scope come with mold in the tube that was then exchanged for a new scope. The new scope was good, but not wholly what I was...

    Rifle Scopes LASIK eye. Surgery & long range

    +1 on this. Lasik is the use of a laser to cut a corneal flap on the eye and then it allows an excismer laser to do the business at correcting your vision. once complete they then put the flap back over and it should heal properly. The downside to that is it never 100% fully heals, what can...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner 5-25x56

    I can only assume it is if a person is lazy and only shoots at torso plates it would make ranging more efficient using the msr even though it would be quite course compared to using the fine lines on the bottom left quadrant in the msr ret. I think jhr put it best though. On the other hand, I...

    Suppressors Electronic Form 4 Wait Times

    Efiling went down on April 4th at the end of day. I went on the 5th to Silencershop and was told that is when efiling was taken offline. I ended up having them paper file my can towards the end of April so unless you had bought it and sent it before the 4th it was sent on paper. I'm hoping to...

    Rifle Scopes Anybody shoot 1 of these? Bushnell Elite ERS ET6245FG 6-24x50mm FFP 30mm Tube

    I have had one for 2 years and it has worked as it should. I had mine on a 700p in .308 and put about 3k rounds before I upgraded my optic to a Steiner 5-25. It is now sitting on top of a 700sps in .223 and still works as it should. I recently picked up a swfa 3-15 for my 17s and it is a nice...

    Suppressors Will suppressors be stamp free in the near future?!

    Well if they did adjust for inflation that would stop quite a few from having so many items. $3500 per tax stamp would be cost prohibitive for some folks.

    Rifle Scopes Scope $2000-$2500

    If you don't mind bumping your 2500 to 2700, you could get a Steiner 5-25 demo unit from sport optics. The only thing that the Steiner doesn't have is locking turrets. Also, if you were to wait until the summer I believe Steiner is coming out with their updated MSR reticle version. Some people...

    Rifle Scopes Mounting Help, 34mm steiner 5-25 mil/tac on Savage 10flp

    I'm not sure if using the 45moa will still allow for a 100yd zero or not, but if you are wanting full use of the available 26mils then it is your only option. That is if I am understanding the wording in the manual correctly. If you are looking for a one piece base you could look up NF...

    Rifle Scopes Mounting Help, 34mm steiner 5-25 mil/tac on Savage 10flp

    On the Steiner manual it says if you want to use all of the available elevation you should use a 45moa (13.1 mil) base / base&mount. Even if you had a 300yd zero it would only put you about 1-1.5 mils above zero to hit at 100yds. However, DNZ can make 34mm mounts. They are under their custom...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner 5-25x56

    Just a side note, Steiner says it'll accept any accessory that will fit a 58 x .75mm objective lense. In case you're leo or mil you could possibly find a VARS or filter to throw on it instead.

    Rifle Scopes Steiner 5-25x56

    Steiner makes their sunshade which is like 60-70 bucks and the ARD which is like ~125$. I'll be trying out the ARD this weekend if i get my Seekins rings from SWFA in.

    Rifle Scopes Steiner 5-25x56

    I was able to get it off finally, just ended up using a slip joint plier with the towel wrapped around the knob to not damage the cap. The other issue I have is the battery is dead. Are CR2450 and CR2450N batteries interchangeable in the optic? I emailed tech support but they had no clue, and my...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner 5-25x56

    I just ended up getting my Steiner in the mail today from Sport Optics, great company to do business with by the way. The only issue I am having is trying to take the illumination screw cap off. Does it take a great ton of force? I have done a couple attempts but have stopped short of really...

    Micro slick ?

    When I was getting some work done with a local gunsmith I asked about getting the microslick coating on my bolt. He told me that from his experience it has a worse wearing pattern over normal black oven cure, and it lasts just about the same. Needless to say I just got the bolt done in black...

    Getting Malware alert when I open the site???

    I'm not sure if this problem I'm having ties in with yours but anytime I try to come specifically to the forum it gives me errors. It will either say the domain does not exist, the domain cannot be propagated, or I typed the address incorrectly. I was not having issues earlier yesterday so I...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner 5-25x56

    Thank you for the response. I saw you mention the new turret in the other thread, but I was not sure if that was solely for the 3-15 or across the board, thanks for clearing that up for me.

    Am I seeing that right? $60.00 a box of 100 rounds of CCI ???

    It probably has that black gold underneath it

    Rifle Scopes Steiner 5-25x56

    Instead of hi-jacking the other Steiner thread, I figured it would be best to just start my own. I've read that the clicks on the Steiner 5-25 aren't as loud or tactile compared to other optic manufacturers or even other optics from Steiner. Is there anything in the works of changing this on...
