I’m seeing a serious lack of photos of scopes on rifles guys.
I like your setup. Enlighten me on what you did with the grip. Also is that the game changer bag attached by some arca pic type clamp? Not blowing smoke up your skirt but my knee jerk thoughts are this guy knows exactly how he needs setup and probably could show up to any range and kick everyone's ass. Maybe it's because I like green ?
What height rings are those? High 1.26" or Medium 1.1"? I am about to drop the hammer on a 4-20 going on a new build, and like rings, not 1 piece mounts. I like to keep the scopes as low as possible too.

@RS14
That patriotic silencer cover is a job well done.
Damn boys I just had back surgery and this is much appreciated so thank you.
40 moa rail?31 mils of elevation with 100 zero. Yep.. I'm liking that!
40 moa rail?
I have roughly 22 mils remaining with 100y zero on top of a 20moa rail/action.
Ok that makes sense, are you concerned that with that much built in 40moa total that with your turrets set to zero you are on the low end of the elevation and putting constant pressure on the internals?20 in the mount and 20 in the rail. I'm right at 30.8 to be exact.
Ok that makes sense, are you concerned that with that much built in 40moa total that with your turrets set to zero you are on the low end of the elevation and putting constant pressure on the internals?
Or do you store it with elevation dialed more to the middle?
The ZCO scopes are supposed to be designed to work this way. Nick, do you have any comment on storage and whether or not you should store closer to middle of the elevation or it doesn't matter?Ok that makes sense, are you concerned that with that much built in 40moa total that with your turrets set to zero you are on the low end of the elevation and putting constant pressure on the internals?

Should be roughly 5mils from the bottom with 40moa, not sure if that is even an issue.

Geesh Dave, they need to have a drool emogi I've always loved the JAE 700 stock, wish I never sold mine because they're about $800 more than what I paid for mine a few years back.ZComp 5-27 finally arrived! Big thanks to Richard @CSTactical for his excellent customer service.

Very nice. What’s the J Allen weigh in at?I suppose all I'm missing for the second one is @Lowlight "Purrdy dang good ammo"

You mean hk daves rifle in particular, or just the plain stock? This was my thread from eons ago - https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/tale-of-two-stocks-manners-eh1-and-jae-700.202093/Very nice. What’s the J Allen weigh in at?

I’m headed to the range in the morning to spend some time comparing the ZCO 5-27, ZCO 4-20 and TT 5-25.
Just from initially playing around with the ZCOs, I’m very impressed. I can see why some prefer it over the TT.
One thing of note that I found interesting that will annoy some of you super operators, but there are some here that geek out on this... between two TTs, the turrets feel different. I’m surprised by it. One feels super mechanical, knocked it out of the ballpark level turrets. The other not as good... more clunky than mechanical.
Same goes for the two ZCOs in my hand. One is super mechanical feeling. I friggin love it. It feels similar to the nice feeling TT.
I wonder if I can do something to the other to make it feel the same. I wonder if it’s a grease thing.
Anyhow, enough geeking on silly things and get on the important stuff.
Tracking tests and optical comparisons to be done shortly.
Do you find the zco easier to get behind?
The picture seems noticeably larger as well as the eyebox on the zco.
Not that the theta is bad. But the zco spoils me.
Spent some time today comparing the TT 5-25 and ZCO 5-27... fellas the ZCO is amazing!
Frankly, with regards to optical performance, I've only been able to spend time with them in bright sun, but I had a hard time seeing a difference except in that the TT had slightly more contrast and deeper blacks. But you have to sit there and really try and see any differences.
I got bored and just started shooting instead.
Gonna have to spend more time behind ZCO 5-27 before a review but absolutely stellar optic. Having a hard time deciding whether I prefer it or the TT and that in itself should say it all.
The real gem though, and what stood out the most today is the ZCO 4-20. This is a very special scope.

That's the truth right there! The 5-27 has a lot more competition, but the 4-20 is truly the best in class of the ultra shorts.I told you that zco420 was something different lol far and away the best “ultra short” on the market

I’ve decided for me personally:
Multicaliber rifles = Theta
Single or rarely change zero = zcomp
I prefer zcomp overall, but when you have 5 barrels, the tool less turrets are king.

Nice setup, should have my 527 in the next few weeksRan the 5-27 in a match this weekend....loved it! Thanks again to Rich @CSTactical

Just ordered my ZCO 4-20×50 w. MPCT1 from Richard at CS Tactical today.
Thank's for the pics,He must have smiled when he won that rifle.
Initial impressions of the ZCO are very good. Love the turrets/controls. Didn't spend any real side by side time with the ZCO and my ZP5's, but IQ is at least as good as the ZP5's. CA appears to be nonexistant, just like the ZP5's. I will have to spend time with both to be able to determine if the ZCO is better in terms of IQ. If the ZCO is better, I don't think it will be by much. But, Good Gawd, the eyebox on the ZCO is massive ! You could park an F-250 in it and still have room leftover ! There is no question that the ZCO has a much larger eyebox, compared to the ZP5's.
