    Rifle Scopes Gen2 razor 4.5-27 vs Cronus Btr

    Yes, I heard the same thing about the older version mushy turrets. I have the BRT and the turrets are nice. I'll get a match or two in this summer hopefully, and i'll report back.

    Rifle Scopes Optic for Bergara B14 HMR 6.5 CM

    SWFA 10x for $300 or a Weaver Grand Slam Tactical 3-10x of $200. Then save up a few bucks and get something down the road. Both scopes will do what you need them to do without breaking the bank. Or find a used Vortex HST in the classifieds for ~$400

    Rifle Scopes Gen2 razor 4.5-27 vs Cronus Btr

    I just got a Cronus BTR, and have only ever handled and looked through a Razor Gen 2, but i'm pretty happy with the Cronos. Glass is very good, eyebox is very good, and it tracked 100% and returned to zero perfectly when I did a tracking test up to 10 mils. I've read that some don't like the...

    Also, a used SWFA SS 5-20 HD would be good. They go for ~$1000 used

    PRS Talk Binoculars or Spotting Scope?

    I bought a pair of Vortex Diamondback 12x50s and a tripod recently and used them in a local match last week. I ended up doing most of the spotting because I was the only one in the squad that brought dedicated optic. I was able to see hits and misses from 300 to 1200 yards. I had no complaints...

    Also, if u go with the Burris, the 4-20 has better glass, based on my research.

    New Bolt Action which should it be?

    Several factors are at play here. 1. Velocity loss (~20 to 25 fps per inch) going from a 24" or 26" to a 20" or 22" will affect bullet trajectory out to 1000m, but trajectory/gravity is a known factor and given that the OP is mostly interested in <600m targets, its not a big difference at 600m...

    New Bolt Action which should it be?

    Yup, OP said mostly hunting inside 600m. No need for a long barrel if that's the primary objective

    Tikka T3x CTR 20" barrel Bergara HMR Howa 1500 Bravo (26" barrel, may need to have a gunsmith cut it to like 22")

    Rifle Scopes Going away from my XTR II, where to look?

    Thanks for the response. I've read your comments before on possible XTRII updates. I am leaning towards the 4-20 XTRII due to the reliability and SCR reticle

    Rifle Scopes Going away from my XTR II, where to look?

    Anyone hearing anything more on potential XTRII updates this year? I'm in the market like the OP and i'm leaning toward a 4-20 XTRII.

    Ruger American Go Wild Camo 6.5 accuracy?

    The Go Wild is just a new model for 2018, looks like a Predator w/ a muzzle break and AI style mag and camo stock. It should be the same barreled action. Also you could look at the new Predator w/ the AI mag, it comes threaded so u can choose an aftermarket break if you don't like the factory...

    Rifle Scopes Strike Eagle 1-8 or Viper PST Gen II 1-6

    Like everyone else said, the PST II is way better in every category. PST II has better turrets, glass, eyebox, value for the $$.

    Ruger American Go Wild Camo 6.5 accuracy?

    I have a RAP 6.5cm and it shoots easily sub-moa with match ammo (Hornady and Prime are the ones I've tested). I've confirmed this multiple times at 100yrds and out to 700 yards. I did a lot of research before purchasing one, and I found that this type of accuracy is very common for these rifles...

    Ruger American Predator 6mm Creed... Wow!

    I have a RAP in 6.5 creedmoor and it shoots sub 0.75 moa and I've shot several 4 shot (mag hold 4 rounds) 0.3-0.5 moa groups. I did a lot of research on multiple forums before purchasing the RAP and found that the vast majority of owners report similar accuracy even with the plastic oem stock...
