    Rifle Scopes Best tracking reliable scope for $1000-$1500

    This is not a fact. It shouldn't be an issue to use a 30- 40 MOA base with a Schmidt & Bender or similar scope. With over 100 MOA internal tracking. I just purchased a Kahles scope, 624i which has 90 MOA internal adjustment and mounted it on a 40 MOA base. And could still zero in at 100...

    Rifle Scopes Kahles reticle problem?! Please help!

    Thanks everyone! I don't want to send the scope back because it is not an issue in the conditions I use the scope in. And as Lowlight said, it is something that tends to happen with fully illuminated reticles... It didn't happen with a Nightforce NXS MLR reticle I own (to be fair the...

    Rifle Scopes Kahles reticle problem?! Please help!

    I just mounted my brand new Kahles 624i. Zeroed in at the range, no problems. Great clarity and tracking in daylight When I tested the illumination at night I found that beside the reticle illuminating there were small lines illuminated as well. Hair like fibers that I am not able to see in...

    Rifle Scopes Shooting at 1 Mile - Will an S&B 5-25 get me there?

    Yes, maybe you might need a 40 MOA cant... If you're shooting beyond a mile... The S&B has 100 MOA internal adjustment. That is around 28 mrad. But with a 20 mount base you get close to 70 MOA (50 up and down from the scope + 20 on the base). With a 40 MOA base you get 90 MOA elevation...

    Rifle Scopes Scope tilting affecting image quality??? (Hakan Spuhr info)

    I emailed Mr. Hakan Spuhr of Spuhr mounts asking him what combination of mount I needed. For a 300win mag to get out to 1700m. I wanted to know if I needed to buy a 20 MOA (6 Mils) mount to go alongside my 20 MOA rifle base. Fitted will be a Kahles 624i. This is what he had to say about...

    Rifle Scopes Kahles 624i 6-24x56 vs. Premier Heritage 5-25x56

    I haven't tried my Kahles 624i yet. I just ordered it and am waiting reception. To bad you didn't like the scope, I hope I do, because honestly I have not tried before I bought it. But it came highly recommended... I haven't tried the Premier Heritage either. But it was one of the scopes I...

    Rifle Scopes Mark IV to a PMii?

    Get the 3-20 which is super versatile for every kind of application!!! You might want to look at Kahles or Steiner as cheaper alternatives to S&B which I acually believe has gone down in quality as of late.

    .243 or .308

    I have never fired 100 rounds in a single session. Not even 50. I know that a lighter rifle kicks a little more. But its very manageable. I think I wouldn't be affected by the recoil, and I mean that honestly. I also shoot .300wm with brake and .338wm and .416 Rigby without brakes. So its...

    Rifle Scopes Spotting scope...Angled or straight?

    I agree, if you shoot alone get the angled. If not get the straight. I was in the same boat and decided on the angled. I am happy with it!

    .243 or .308

    I don't know anyone that is affected by the recoil of the .308. Except maybe a kid or an old woman. LOL I would go for the .308 especially if you don't reload. You will still be able to get to 1000 yards. How much longer do you plan to shoot!?

    Atlas bipod for Steyr SSG 08?

    Firstly I want to point out how disgusted I am with the Versa Pod line of bipods. It came on the Steyr SSG 08 rifle. I can't believe that before shooting, the black coating of the bipod is completely worn off and I can see the metal beneath it, and there are tiny metal particles all over the...
