    Venom vs strike eagle

    If it’s the same glass that the 5-25 strike eagle has then it’s pretty decent. I have one of the 5-25’s and like it allot. I would personally pick a 5-25 strike eagle over either of those but that’s just me.

    Venom vs strike eagle

    I would think it would come down to if you want first or second focal plane with those two options. The 4-24 strike eagle (unlike the 5-25 strike eagle) appears to be second focal plane. For me that would be a deal breaker in that magnification range. It also appears to only be available in MOA...

    Spotters Spotting Scope Setups - Show Em!

    Just set this up and it’s still a work in progress. Eventually I would like to mount an extension pole with an ultrasonic wind meter on it as well. I eventually need to get a better tripod also.

    What brand cheek riser is this?

    I’ll third that shit. I’ve had one on my 700 for years and love it. I have the Eagle one too but the Triad is the better one.

    Piggy-back RDS Zero Range

    I have a piggyback red dot on my 1-6x on an AR. The 1-6x is zeroed at 60-200 but the rds is zeroed at 100 yards for passive night vision use. With HOB of 4.5” zeroing it the same at the LPVO gave too drastic of a change for me and the 100 yards zero was the flattest I found.

    Leveling my scopes

    I did sort of a test of this inadvertently yesterday. I ran a tall target test on one of my rifles. I used a 3’ carpenter level on the target and then lined up the reticle to the target. My scope level showed level and I did the test and the scope tracked perfectly true. I then shot at 200 yards...

    Something coming new for Kestrel? They’re on sale…hmmm

    I still have the 4500NV with Horus atrag on it. Non Bluetooth version. I think I’ve probably had it for over ten years and it still does me just fine for what I do. I would like a 5700 eventually I suppose but I can store something like 60 different gun profiles in it and it gives me nearly the...

    Worst Value Optic?

    I wonder how anyone managed before any of the current “alpha” scopes out there? Carlos Hathcock must be rolling over in his grave right now. Seems very snobbish the way many act over this (cost of item) subject. I’m happy that there are better options available today but it’s asinine to think...

    Worst Value Optic?

    I have several mid to lower range Vortex scopes. A couple gen I PST’s, a PST II, Diamondback Tactical, and a Strike Eagle 5-25 and have nothing but positive to say about Vortex. I was able to shoot with a Gen II Razor Years ago out to 800 yards and was fairly impressed with the quality and...

    Worst Value Optic?

    This thread has helped me I’ll say that. It’s made me veer away from a Leupold MK5HD. I’m pretty set on a Razor Gen III now.

    Worst Value Optic?

    That should say something in itself.

    Worst Value Optic?

    JFC! I came here to get some knowledge for a new scope purchase but all I see is a bunch of purse swinging bitches that want to flaunt how much their optics cost and how the poors can’t hang! Hope you all feel superior now that you’ve argued on the internet.
