MIL-SPEC 30 CAL 168GR BTHP MATCH BULLETS $93.00 per...

    Rifle Scopes Question on using MIL DOT 2.5-10x Nightforce

    I've got a 2.5-10x 24mm Nightforce. It has the close range mildot reticle. At what magnification is the scope meant to be set at to use the mildot's accurately? 10x I am guessing? I cannot find it stated anywhere in the Nightforce literature.

    Rifle Scopes What mil reticle do most prefer?

    I think I might be leaning toward the USO Canada Mil reticle. What would be the down side of this. After using my NPR1 reticle to try to range at far distances I think I would like the 1/5 mil hash marks available on the reticle. Thanks, Steve

    Rifle Scopes how do you drive a scope with moa knobs and mil re

    how do you drive a scope that the knobs (MOA) that don't match the reticle (mil). Seems to be an awful lot of US Optics set up that way in the classifieds lately. All I've been exposed to are turret less Leupolds with duplex crosshairs (a VX-III 4.5-14x and an LPS 1.5-6 all on hunting rifles)...

    Rifle Scopes MOA convert to MIL NSX?

    Picked up a NSX for my dad a few months ago in a trade. He isnt as picky as me about the Mil/Mil thing but I noticed on CS gunworks website they sell MIL knobs. Can they be converted by simply changing the knobs out? I wouldnt mind setting it up Mil/Mil if thats possible.

    Rifle Scopes Moa to Mil conversion

    Ok guys I need some enlightment. I want to convert Moa to mil. I know to convert Moa to Mils you divide the Moa by 3.438. My question is If a mil subtends 3.6 inches at 100 yds why the 3.438 number instead of dividing by 3.6?
