scopes

Recently ordered a March 1-10x24 shorty. I plan to use it on my 30-06 Winchester model 70 Extreme Weather, rather than a tactical application. It seem like a good all around optic. I’ve read great reviews of this scope online. It seems to be the only 1-10 or 1-8 LVPO without any comprise (minus...

I have read that someone at aged 60 would need three times the amount of light during the night to see as clearly as someone at aged 20. For those of you with older eyes, would you say that a scope is worth the purchase for shooting at 300 yards during dawn or dusk? The reason I ask, if anyone...

I wasn't aware of California banning what their state government defines as "sniper scopes". Just was reading this. I would like to learn more. Is this law still standing? Looks like the law bans infrared scopes. Says nothing about starlight scopes...

So, I have come into a situation that many of us easterners dream of, being an invitation from a western hunter to join them. The target is black bears and the area is Colorado (unit 33?, again, easterner, not sure how units work exactly) near Wyoming. None of that matters, this is what does...

Hello, everyone! I am a new member here (already posted to the new member thread to introduce myself), but I just wanted to post to get anyone's experiences with specific brands of scopes. I started my AR build with Vortex Sparc AR Red Dot and Vortex Mini 3X Magnifier. Initially, I actually...

Hey all I purchased a t/c compass in 223/5.56 and am looking for help on the scope situation. A lot of people are advising me to put a moa 20 base on it but I don’t think I’ll be shooting anything that far tbh. It comes with drilled and tapped receiver comes with factory installed Weaver-style...

I got a nice 30-06 for hunting and can anyone give me recommendations on a good scope. I hunt in new England but also like to do target shooting as well. I am willing to spend up to $500 on the scope.

Hi, my name is chris. I recently bought a tikka t3x 30-06 for hunting and am looking for a new scope for it. I have a budy that is saying I should go with the leupold vx-3i 3.5-10x40 (which is $400) but I was looking around and I found that bushnell is having a sale. They are selling the Forge -...

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone could give me some tips on mounting both a scope and iron sights on bolt action rifles (particularly steyr pro hunter), cheers.

Hey peeps, I'm trying to get a new scope for my AR-10, but I'm a bit stumped. Any best scope for AR-10 recommendations or resources I should refer to? Thanks, John

I've got an older model Ruger Charger and wanted to add an inexpensive optic. But I don't know what kind of rail it comes with or whether an OTW green/red dot system would work well or whether it's better on on the 10/22. Are the rails on the Charger/10-22 the same outta the box? I'm also...

After lasik surgery, my right eye is fine for reading, while my left eye is good for distance. Normally the brain seems to switch back & forth easily, and it's great not having to wear glasses whether reading or driving. Being right-handed, with a pistol I shoot right handed but use my left...

I bought 2 Savage model 42, 22lr/410 over/under combo one for each kid to use, brand new both out the door for $475. package deal. The kids and I do not like a sites on them, from other post I found where to get Picatinny rail for them. I however have no experience with red dot scopes or reflex...

I'm looking for a better scope for my .223 . I use 55 gr bullet with it 1 in9 twist. according to what have read in their advertisements that they can compensate for the drop. does anyone have any experience with them or something similar. 3x9 or M223 3-12x42mm Side Focus Rapid Action...

I really don't want to get all corksniffery over something which likely requires cork-sniffing. But... Tell it to me straight. Should I just stick to iron sights if I'm not willing to shell out at least $150 bucks?
