    Rifle Scopes New for 2025, the Kahles K540i

    Great news!!! I am most curious to hear first reports from Hide users who can compare alongside ZCO and TT and offer their thoughts on how forgiving the K540i is in comparison... If we get enough, "OMG, I think this will seriously challenge TT and ZCO for top spot" then I might have to sell...

    Rifle Scopes Glassaholic's History of Reviews

    Thank you Kick... That's a slippery slope because reticle choice comes down to personal preference. All three reticles in my test scopes were tree reticles and for me personally when it comes to tree reticles my motto is "less is more" - meaning I do not like the tree to dominate the sight...

    Proportionate scope rings

    I see, you mean trends based on a testing methodology that doesn't take into account multiple variables and prone to inaccurate data. And trends brought about by individuals with a history of pretty harsh bias towards certain manufacturers and a love affair with others. I'm not saying the...

    Vortex 2025?

    That's actually pretty cool, don't think I have a need right now either but clever thinking for the shotgun crowd.

    Triggercam 2.1+

    You know you're in deep when you buy a 36mm mount when you don't own any 36mm scopes... but hoping someday a ZCO or TT 7-35 will arrive in a big brown box ;)

    Proportionate scope rings

    Warning, this is going to get a bit techy... There are multiple camps and all have different thoughts and ideas, I'm going to focus on two camps here: Camp 1: Doesn't matter what ring/mount you use, just properly torque and you should be good to go... Camp 2: You ever had zero shift? Have...

    Scope dope

    For after market these Hoptic are the best I've found to date... https://www.hopticusa.com/product-page/scope-dope-sample-pack Hard to tell in the pic but the round dope is a sticker you peel off and stick inside your scope cap. But I like what Trig Monk did with designing his own that mimics...

    AI Short Forend Bridge for AT-X and 20MOA Accessory Rail Kit do not match?

    I did not, I ended up going a different route so never pursued it further

    I truly believe it's a conspiracy by the old school hunters to keep FFP scopes out of the woods. 😝

    Night Vision Holosun IRIS 1/2/3/4 Official Discussion

    I agree with you JDB with regard to "there's no reason" but it seems to me that, similar to other products, isn't the pricing driven by what the "market" is willing to accept? If a manufacturer can sell the same $500 LAM for $4000 rather than $1500 then why not? Isn't this essentially what has...

    Vortex 2025?

    You’re not alone. It was the mag range that killed it me thinks, 6x on the bottom just too much for crossover interest for most.
