    Rifle Scopes New for 2025, the Kahles K540i

    It absolutely can help! I think you answered your own question :) Think of it this way - you have scope A and scope B. Scope A has a 22° AFOV and at 20x you can see 9.4 mils from center to edge and then you have Scope B which has 26° AFOV and you can see 13.7 mils from center to edge -...

    Rifle Scopes Alpha Class High Magnification 6-36/7-35 FFP Scope Review

    A rifle scope is its own optical system that is specifically designed for the human eye to be behind the scope. A camera with a lens is calibrated to present an image in perfect alignment with the focal plane of the camera (where the digital sensor resides), if you put another optic that is not...

    Rifle Scopes Alpha Class High Magnification 6-36/7-35 FFP Scope Review

    This is exactly why I frown upon through the scope imagery, you are expecting or hoping that the stars aligned for each scope with everything else being equal (but was everything else equal?). Was everything exactly the same and was there perfect alignment of the camera and lens behind the...

    Rifle Scopes Alpha Class High Magnification 6-36/7-35 FFP Scope Review

    ZCO did not have any spare 8-40's last year when I did my review, but I am getting an 8-40 soon to compare to TT 7-35. I'd also trying to source a Kahles K540i as well and maybe even a March 5-42 G2... that's my goal for this year. @Covertnoob5 has had both (TT and ZCO) so he might be...

    Area419 - The ULTIMATE TEST - 2025 Big Boy Precision Optic Shootout

    I think what Area419 and the other reviews on the Hide have shown is that at this level - the scopes are pretty phenomenal with nuances that might persuade one shooter to choose one over the other but nothing major that would cause one to cast aside a particular scope unless the nuance was a...

    Area419 - The ULTIMATE TEST - 2025 Big Boy Precision Optic Shootout

    Very interesting and Kudo's to Area 419 for taking on such a challenge, as those of us who've done these types of reviews before - it ain't easy! Also, @flyer1a you did mention several times in your video that you don't think anyone has done a review quite like this, yet ILya has, Covertnoob...

    SAI 10 1-10

    Blurry is relative but yes, this is the tradeoff of the LPVO design and why many are moving to MPVO designs. The LPVO simply isn't designed for "precision" work and ends up having too many compromises especially at the higher magnifications and distance (most are preset parallax between 100-150...

    SAI 10 1-10

    Adjust your diopter at 1x, make sure your scope exactly matches 1x with both eyes open. If you try to do diopter like a normal LR scope you will have all kinds of frustrations. An LPVO is first and foremost designed for 1x use and that is where your diopter should be set, if you find it is...

    SAI 10 1-10

    Not if you set the diopter correctly on an LPVO - very different process from setting diopter on a long range scope.

    SAI 10 1-10

    Thorb, Your experience with both pretty much mimics my experience with both. I have been talking about the flare/halation issue with ATI's optics for a while (not just SAI but also with TT, I conjecture it has to do with their multi-coating but I have no concrete evidence to this as of yet...

    Rifle Scopes Is there a market for a good MPVO

    I hear you Timmy! It is frustrating to see some get close but miss the mark in other areas. I think what we’re seeing is manufacturers afraid to take the step with the reticle. Like you mentioned, the best opportunity on the market today for a decently priced MPVO is likely the Steiner H6Xi...

    Good .223 DMR/MPVO Optic These Days?

    I think CS Tactical, EO, Cameralandny and others should send out free whiskey to everyone looking to buy new optics :ROFLMAO: I am hoping within a year or so the Mark 4 will be offered with the CMR-Mil reticle, at that time I will seriously consider one (y)

    Rifle Scopes Which Crossover Scope would you choose?

    On newer reviews I have a disclaimer to not compare resolution tests from different days, absolutely a different day and different time of day can have an effect on the number of lines I can see, I have seen variation of up to 10lpi with the same scope at same distance just on different days. I...
