  1. LPVO: Edumacate Me, Fellow Tradesmen

    Higher magnification is better with a first focal plane optic. Lower magnification is fine for second focal plane scopes. If you're into precision shooting, especially in matches, a first focal plane riflescope is the way to go. For reference, standard sniper scopes are FFP. Military snipers...
  2. Picked up a thermal

    Check out the FLIR Breach

  4. Need opinions on red dot selection

    If you do have an astigmatism, you may need a prismatic optic. Primary Arms The SLx 1x MicroPrism Vortex Spitfire 1x PRIMARY ARMS SLX COMPACT 1×20 Atibal SAP 1x Micro Prism Athlon Midas TSP1
  5. Scope Recommendation

    All of those optics are reasonably comparable, so I'm sure he'll be happy with any of them. Let him check out your Vudu and see if he likes it. Personally, I'd tell him pick Nightforce.
  6. Scope Recommendation

    In order, I'd go with: Nightforce NX8 Nightforce NXS Vortex Razor Gen II Leupold Mark 5HD 5-25x56 Primary Arms PLx 6-30x56
  7. Scope Recommendation

    For that budget... Can't go wrong with Nightforce, Steiner, Eotech Vudu, Vortex HD, Leupold 5HD, or Primary Arms.
  8. Scope Recommendation

    What distance is he planning on shooting?
  9. Pistol red dots?

    Correct. The irons are there as backup. Focus on the target, overlay the dot, and send those rounds!
  10. Pistol red dots?

    You're quite welcome. Whatever you get, practice practice practice. Red dots are faster than irons because there's only 2 focal planes instead of 4, like with irons. Irons = front sight (elevation & windage) + rear sight + target Red dot = target + red dot Remember this when using a red dot...
  11. Pistol red dots?

    There's a few things to consider when selecting pistol optics. 1. MOA - the larger the dot, the easier it is to acquire. But larger dots cover the target more at distance; making longer shots more difficult. Smaller dots are more precise, but can slow down your engagement time. In my opinion, a...
  12. Best budget scope?

    Fixed or Variable? What are you putting it on? What caliber? Monstrum G3 1-6x24 Monstrum G2 1-4x24 UTG 3-9x32 Bugbuster Bushnell AR Optics 1-4x24 Burris Fullfield II
  13. Help with sights zero

    Geezus, this is a $hit show...
  14. Thermal

    Not sure what you're hunting or at what range, but here's a few optics I've personally used. I'm no hunter but hope this helps: ATN Thor series ATN LT ATN OPMOD Sig Sauer ECHO3 AGM Python Burris BTS 50
  15. Best scope for .300 wing mag long range and for .270 hunting rifle

    Here’s a few Under $500: Vortex Diamondback Athlon BTS 6-24 Nikon Prostaff 5 Burris 6.5x20 Fullfield II Under $1k: Zeiss Conquest V4 Trijicon Credo HX Vortex Viper 4-16x44 ATN X-sight 4k Pro Leupold VX-5HD Leupold VX-3HD
  16. Best scope for .300 wing mag long range and for .270 hunting rifle

    What range do you hunt at? Long range is subjective. Do you have any stigmas? Prefer illuminated reticles or not? Any particular reticle?
  17. NC Star?

    Not the earlier stuff, but the G3 series seems pretty gtg.
  18. NC Star?

    No lie there
  19. NC Star?

    These civilians get better gear than we did. lol. I wish I had access to this stuff back then.
  20. NC Star?

    My bad, that wasn't directed at you. lol. Just saying, most people who buy high end stuff aren't out running missions.
