    Rifle Scopes Viper 1-6 mounts?

    I have as well, but they are a tad heavy. I might check into used Larue, ADM, or others as well.

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon Credo 1-8

    I owned a 1-4 Accupower and have time behind a 1-8; illumination could be 'seen in the daylight sometimes', but in no way is in the same league as a Razor II/III or NX-8. I can't consider any of the Accupowers 'daylight bright' by conventional understanding of the term. I have seen zero...

    Rifle Scopes Optic Failures

    Burris Droptine - debris in the reticle, returned and they fixed for free Vortex PST Gen 2 1-6x24 - faulty illumination in the first batch, returned and Vortex replaced it with a new one for free (which has been fine) Trijicon Accupower 1-4x24 - debris in the reticle after a drop at a rifle...

    Rifle Scopes Nikon scopes - any good???!

    I came to the same conclusion. Put your money toward something better.

    Rifle Scopes Red dots on LPVOs? Explain

    A piggyback RDS also helps picking up distant targets when prone instead of hunting for it through the soda straw, regardless if you have a LPVO or higher magnification range scope.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor HD Gen III 1-10x

    I have seen this and found that (for me), if I take off the rear cap on 1-6/1-8 optics that it is just as good with no caps (ie, front cap only). So on those I use an Aadland front and either no rear or a cheap Butler Creek (for storage only, I take it off when the rifle is in use).

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor HD Gen III 1-10x

    I'm sure Jon Aadland is working on those caps and you can order sets, or individuals when they come out. If they are 'out of stock' you can order them and they'll ship pretty quickly - I've never had to wait more than 2 weeks for anything from them. Jon is great about returns, I decided I...

    Rifle Scopes NX8 1-8 vs Trij Accupower 1-8

    They are different animals - large, heavy, meh illumination, dual exposed turrets (Accupower 1-8) vs small, light, RDS illumination, one or both capped turrets (NX-8). I had a 1-4 Accupower and was excited about the 1-8 until I saw it. The NX-8 isn't perfect (few optics are) but it works...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold MK5HD 1-6

    "Currently trying out a new Trijicon Credo 1-6. I like it for a 14.5-16” lightweight carbine. Still not quite perfect, but pretty dang good for that use. Daylight bright, easy to use up close (SFP), with a .5 moa center dot for precise zero, and BDC pretty close (at least out to 300yd)." To...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold Mark 5 1-6 optic Military contract

    ^^^Not surprising. Day late and a dollar short. We'll all have Vortex 1-10x, Nightforce 1-8s, or whatever Steiner is working on by then. If not already. ;)

    Rifle Scopes Daylight Bright LPVOs

    PST Gen 2 1-6x24, Razor II and II-E, NX-8 1-8 Trijicon Accupower 1-4 & 1-8 are not, nor is the Burris MTAC 1-4

    Rifle Scopes Geissele 1-6 scope

    I imagine it's aim at the LEO market as well - easier to get whole packages to departments with everything they need. When it's your own money the smart / invested person spends carefully. When it's not, you often take what is given.

    Rifle Scopes What’s the deal with Vortex? Yay? Nay?

    So true. A company with multiple, very slow, personalities.

    Rifle Scopes 1000-1,300$ price what lpvo should I get?

    Wait a year for the new hotness and hope it doesn't disappoint...? No fracking way. Razor E is nice but I found it underwhelming compared to the PST Gen 2 1-6x24. Yeah it's better, but not twice the price better. I like the NX-8 but plenty don't. Really depends what you are shooting it...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor News?

    What, no GAME CHANGING Twatter posts like Glocks G44? We'll see if they can pull off 1-10x24. I hope they can, but we've seen this before <New Optic Release Announced> "OMG it's gonna be GREAT...!" "I'm IN for 5!!!!!'' <1-3 months after release> WTS The NEW HOTNESS - Decided to "Go in...

    Rifle Scopes Selecting an LPVO to Replace a Red Dot -- Eye Box?

    I must be the odd man out, I prefer the Vortex PST Gen 2 1-6x24 to the Razor E, and sold a Razor E for the NX-8, which is great for what I want it to do. NX-8 has a tighter eyebox than either Vortex, but it's not tight by any stretch IMO.
