    I think I finally killed my trusty 'ol MS v3 and am in the middle of some load development for a new rifle. I don't really want to lay out $500 for a new v3 kit when e everything but the bayonet and display will get tossed (I use the MK setup). I know there are differences in the crap that comes with the Sporter setup, but is the bayo the same as the v3? Ideally, I'd like to buy the bayo and display (I think my display is still working actually so I really don't even need that) and go to town.

    Definitely reach out to them. Their customer service is great.

    How did you kill your V3 so badly that you need a whole new kit? You can buy individual parts off their website FYI.
     
    I started with the sporter and sold it for the V3. I use the V3 for almost every rifle and pistol so it was a worthwhile investment. I've been looking at selling the V3 for the Labradar though...

    I don’t need the kit, I don’t use anything but the bayo and display box. I THINK the issue is the 3mm jack on the back. It’s loose, and every time I fire a shot, now more often than not, it’s blanking out or showing a bunch of strange lines. I’m gonna give them a call and see if they’ll look at it though. Why must these things happen at the most inopportune times?
