    Rifle Scopes Checking scope ring screw torque

    I always use Loc-Tite (blue) on not only the ring caps but the base screws as well - yeah, ask me why.. ;) (same thing, was spot on 1st half of a day, second half I thought my optic was losing zero, wasted much ammo to find out the base had started to loosen up). No 'regular' schedule on...

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon 1-8 mrad holiday sale??

    Sportoptics has a 17% off Trijicon code if you can Google the link to it (not just for BF but doesn't seem to be easily found from their home page). ETA - code is REDDOT17, brings it just under 1200

    Rifle Scopes So what scopes are you grabbing this Black Friday?

    OK, you just cost me some $ :) I had a line on an Athlon Cronus but got the dmr2 with illumination for $1160 w/code BFSCP14 for 14% off the sale price...couldn't pass up. Will be interesting to see how it compares to the ERS on my bolt gun. Even when the XRS 2 comes out, shouldn't lose much if...

    Rifle Scopes So what scopes are you grabbing this Black Friday?

    If you don't mind, PM me what you paid - am considering picking one up as well as looking for pricing, otherwise still looking for a deal on a 1-8 mil/mil FFP which limits my options still. Hide vendors, feel free to PM if will include pricing..

    Looks like Mile High is doing some S&B closeouts starting today.

    Rifle Scopes What scopes are you hoping for at Shot Show 2018?

    A quality 1-8x (or 1-10? :) ) FFP mil/mil at less than the Minox. A USO SR8C replacement with a modern reticle. Any updated 6x erector 4-24-ish FFP mil/mil optics w/xmas-tree style reticles.

    Rifle Scopes Who has tried those newfangled GPO scopes Doug is selling

    Their 1-8x FFP with interesting (to me) reticle doesn't ship until March or April. Current Cameraland prices = MSRP. Will wait to see some reviews I trust coming in on them as well as look for actual street pricing, but may be interested depending on when they show up readily available.

    Rifle Scopes Optic (LPV) for .308 semi-auto

    Thanks Ilya. Seems like I saw a ZP8 used or discounted for $2300 recently, but not sure I'm convinced the auto-disable of the SFP dot via mag ring isn't going to break, and still a chunk of $. I've been aware of PA and the Platinum series - ran one of their red dots and wasn't 'nice' to it...

    Rifle Scopes Optic (LPV) for .308 semi-auto

    Announcements are usually well ahead of shipping products at SHOT. Unless you're indicating otherwise? ;) I'd be open to considering a 1-8x FFP MIL reticle XTR II...in Jan or so.

    Rifle Scopes Optic (LPV) for .308 semi-auto

    Bumping one more time in case anyone has additional feedback, or of course if CSTactical was doing more than a drive-by ad and is offering the ZP8 per my criteria at < $2K? :) Still waffling across USO SR8C and Trijicon 1-8 mil FFP, or maybe an IOR 1-10 FFP Mil used, and just saw the March...

    Rifle Scopes Optic (LPV) for .308 semi-auto

    I've got some concern on any of the LPVs for reticle thickness. What sort of shooting were you doing at longer ranges? 3K is not <2K unless you're saying you sell them for under 2K? :) Reviews seem to gripe a bit on eye box/eye relief at 8x, and I have concerns over the 'auto-switching'...

    Rifle Scopes Optic (LPV) for .308 semi-auto

    Hi all. I'm considering an optic for my eventually-coming MDR. I've waffled back and forth on this a bit RE: magnification range, but run an ERS 3.5-21 w/G2 (smaller than Horus but still xmas-tree) reticle on my bolt gun and love it, holding far more than dialing. I have 2 ranges where I can...

    Eberlestock Gunslinger II, Feature Mods from Factory

    Heh, I saw you were also recommended on benos + arfcom both, so will assume I'm in good hands. I think after a ton of back and forth, I'm leaning towards the Intex II G4 in FDE or Coyote, + A2SS, a hydration bladder and a pair of accessory straps. Would love to pick up a padded shooting mat at...

    Eberlestock Gunslinger II, Feature Mods from Factory

    Any idea when Dry Earth is available for the G4? Going through the usual confusion, back and forth between GSII, Phantom, Operator, F4 and J79. Primary use is 3 gun + range, but I bring a chrono, tripod and spotting scope with me, among other things. Intent is to add a scabbard on and literally...
