    Rifle Scopes Tremor3 reticle ?

    I have large 11x17 prints of the reticles at my desk and in the garage. It really helped me to see them daily. I still remember the first time I saw a T2, it was like reading hieroglyphics. I ran an H58 for a couple years, then briefly upgraded to H59, then TreMor2, now TreMor 3. Fair...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold VX-1 | 3 Shots to hit steel plate at 1,000 yards

    What did you guys think of this video? Have you ever taken a sub $200 scope out this far? Wonder what rifle build and ammo he was using. Ryan Cleckner says your scope should cost at least twice as much as your rifle. So, I figure that rifle was around $100.

    Rifle Scopes First Vortex PST GII failure report in SH (FIXED BY VORTEX)

    I would think most shooters/hunters dropping $1K for glass, are pretty serious about what they are doing and know not to keep turning a turret when it's bottomed out. But then again, some dudes are 'farm strong', so.... I wanted to thank you for being active in a thread like this. It's always...

    Tell that to a trophy hunter, competitive shooter, or warfighter.

    Rifle Scopes Torn between two new scopes... Leupold LRP vs. Vortex PST Gen 2

    There is no shortage of negative PST posts out there. Whether it be Snipershide, or any of the other 6 or so key forums, and the Facebook long range group that is well into the 40,000 member range now. What happens most of the time... wait... I mean ALL OF THE TIME is someone defending Vortex...

    Rifle Scopes Torn between two new scopes... Leupold LRP vs. Vortex PST Gen 2

    I saw a guy at the range this weekend unscrew his elevation adjustment. It just popped off the scope! I don't think it's a hard problem to solve, but makes me worried about what else could be missing, out of print, or installed incorrectly. I went with an LRP 4.5-14x50 TMR FFP just to see if...

    Rifle Scopes First Vortex PST GII failure report in SH (FIXED BY VORTEX)

    I think we might have a tie. I saw a guy unscrew his PST2 elevation adjustment at Red River Rifle & Pistol Club yesterday. So, probably same day as you. I hope this isn't like the whole initial production run of these. The PST1 had a bad enough reputation to overcome.

    Rifle Scopes Best power for small game 100 yards or less 10x or 6x

    I just want to comment on both your options as neither seems to have side focus or adjustable objective. I recently set up a 10-22 and with a 'lower' mag scope which meant no side focus or adjustable objective. This particular 22 is very precise at 50yds, and I decided many of my important...

    Rifle Scopes NightForce Competition SR Fixed 4.5x24

    I've been getting into NRA High Power Service Rifle (SR) competition over the last year weighing the options for an optic. NRA now allows up to 4.5x magnification and a 34mm objective glass size. There don't seem to be many dedicated product offerings for SR, however, NightForce has an...
