    Help me finish my carbine class rifle

    LVPO all the way for a top tier AR (or any AR for that regards). with minimal practice your splits will be just as fast and you'll gain a ton of flexibility for target ID/mid range. what's your budget?

    Rifle Scopes Swampfox optics, any good?

    I can bench 286 and Countersniper > Quigley Ford (we all know that)

    JUST BOUGHT A LIKE NEW LMT SAS 308

    only buy Countersniper if you can snag a contract overrun, otherwise S&B/Kahles/Henny are a better value.

    JUST BOUGHT A LIKE NEW LMT SAS 308

    ammo - I'd start with FGMM and Hornady match. scope - lots of great choices - the recommendations will be easier if we knew what magnification range you were looking for. regardless, under 2k there are plenty of excellent scopes from Leupold, Nightforce, Quigley Ford, Vortex, Steiner, Bushnell...

    GAP Production Rifle

    between the heavy weight, muzzle device, and a low recoiling round, it is a very pleasant rifle to shoot in 6 creedmore. I haven't weighted mine yet, but I'd bet it is +/-20 pounds with a Razor2, ARCA rail, Atlas bipod, and a full mag.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor HD Gen III 1-10x

    MRAD for me. I don't prefer BDCs that cater to one load, though they are brilliant if you are using that load...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor HD Gen III 1-10x

    both the NX8 and RG3 have very bright illumination. I cannot envision a scenario where max level would be needed on either optic. more range time today on my RG3 and did some brief comparison between it and the NX8. the size difference between the two is noticeable but I prefer the reticle on...

    Daniel defense ar15 barrels

    I have a DD4v11 pro that uses their 18 S2W profile barrel - it is a very nice barrel. While expensive, DD makes quality AR15s. I'm not sure they are the best available, or the best value, but they are solid and dependable.

    Rifle Scopes Scopes For Two 6.5s

    The Burris XTR2 line isn't my favorite. I've owned 2. neither was bad, they just weren't my favorite. that said, the 5-25 at optics planet for $650 is a pretty solid deal as long as you: 1) don't mind the odd camo (I've never heard of Prym1 Sand) 2) don't mind shopping at optics planet.

    Mount for Vortex LPVO on BCM Pistol -- Recommendations?

    my Razor 3 is in a Scalerworks, not a whole lot of rounds down range but the fit & finish are great. I noticed that Aaron from Sage Dynamics was running a Scalerworks in his RG3 review. I strongly suspect his test punished that optic/mount combo more than I will over many years. I have a trio...

    Another Picture Thread - All Other Semi-Autos

    MDRX. It appears DT has worked out some of the bugs from the Gen1, though I've got less than 1000 rounds though it.

    Rifle Scopes Fix it stix Scope Jack

    seems sort of gimmicky - while I appreciate the leveling mechanisms built into some 1 piece mounts, I haven't found them to be a true as doing it the old fashioned way with a pair of levels

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor HD Gen III 1-10x

    in my amateur opinion the RG3 (and similar scopes) offer a metic ton of utility and could fit a large number of roles: 1) DMR/SPR/REECE type build (the MK12 had a 2.5-8/3.5-10 if memory serves) in a caliber of your choice. 2) a hunting rifle for much of the US - I cannot think of a shot (semi or...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor HD Gen III 1-10x

    first range trip today. I did little more than set zero at 10, 25, and finally 50 yards. at 1x I think Vortex has an absolute home run. the illumination is daylight bright - as in 11 is way overkill and I cannot see how it would ever be used. eyebox and field of view are both excellent. if...

    current state of the Steiner T5Xi 3-15 - now (M5Xi vs. Tango6 Gen2 vs. Nightforce F1 4-16)

    I started this thread asking about the T5Xi and my feelings were confirmed - thanks all for chiming in. the thread has morphed into a mid range high/mid range search thread involving another line from the original manufacture and several other scopes...

    Rifle Scopes Lightweight LPVO recommendation for AR pistol.

    How about the Steiner PX4i? About the same size as the NX8, but with what feels to be a more forgiving eyebox. While I've got very limited experience with a Trijicon TR24, I'm surprised this hasn't already been mentioned.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor HD Gen III 1-10x

    that is what I was going to go with - I've had great luck with everything Badger sells, but I feared the 1/2" mounting nuts could cause some bloody knuckles with a side charging carbine. if you are running a traditional AR that should be a sweet piece of kit.

    Scalerworks. my other LVPOs are Geisesle, ADM, Nightforce rings, though there are other quality choices available.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor HD Gen III 1-10x

    Mine arrived today (thanks Liberty Optics!). first opinion - it's everything I love about the gen2 with a much better reticle and first focal plane. it's not sunny today, but I have zero expectation that the illumination will wash out even in the most extreme sunlight conditions. on that note...

    Rifle Scopes Recommended riflescope (FFP) for PRS match ($1200-$1600)

    As others have said. Razor 2 is the answer. There are other LOW scopes that might be as good but aren’t yet proven that in the PRS world to the degree that Vortex is. You might be able to find a Leupold MK5 at that price if you like their reticle choices and don’t mind not having...
