TLDR - The Burris Clip on adapter can be made to work and is in practice, in the field, minute of pig repeatable. Detailed RTZ testing later.
So, the universe works in mysterious ways and I ended up with a NOX35 that put the Steiner onto my oldest son's rifle. He's shooting a 556 with the OG...
Greetings gentlemen. Tired of those aluminum rings melting in a hot car? Bending when your daughter torques them? I get it - those reasons, and many many more, are why Vortex made these out of steel.
These rings can handle the heat, the torque, and your heaviest duty scope. Originally made for...
Frustration with the rail mount situation. I'm looking at getting the mount milled a little flatter so that it can fit under a couple other scopes and hopefully to allow a second bolt to secure it - currently it only uses one due to being flipped.
My last planned trip got cancelled due to work...
Follow up thought - I think a better way to say it might be the AR-10 platform is inclined to eat optics and electronics but to be sure the specific configuration undoubtedly plays a role. A 20 lb suppressed AR-10 might be easier on equipment than say a 6 lb Grendel, you don't know until you put...
It's my understanding AR-10's eat optics in general. As it has been explained to me, it isn't the amount of recoil per se, but rather the harmonics of the impulse back and forth. Burris told me they used the thermals on 50's without an issue but the shutters don't like AR-10's.
Its a...
Three cheers for Trash Panda. Wish I could get back another little bit on the ACOG but there are plenty of options that will work fine.
For the money, it is still a great deal. While it has fleas, they all have fleas, and the screen resolution allows for use of 10X+if you have a good stable...
It rail mounts with caveats. Credit Trash Panda for figuring out you can flip a Burris clip. For a 1.5" mount, you're limited to about a 34mm objective bell unless you start shaving... could happen...
Supposedly better processor etc etc, same viewing screen but I think the sensitivity and front end were improved?
Oh, and its a "design your own rail clip" situation. TBD on that, waiting on my not factory approved rail adapter to arrive.
