Although ranging on any power is a big benefit of the FFP, holdovers and movers are another. Maybe its my limited capacity or maybe Im just excitable and afraid Ill forget but I just dont want to have to remeber to half values and such depending on what mag your on on a SFP scope

Dont forget Steiner. Excellent scope for the money! As usual, and Im sure Im a broken record, glass is full of compromises. USO glass is hit or miss. Some are very good, others not so much. S&B, Hensoldt, Khales, Steiner, March, USO, NF, Leupold(the new ones out of the new LE-Mil manufacturing facility), all good scopes with pros and cons. With that being said, there are a couple things I cling to in a scope. I only use FFP scopes and all but my 1.5-6 are Mil/Mil. So given your two choices the ATACR would be knocked out for being SFP. Didnt know they made this scope in SFP.

Were they students at MIT or was MIT the next target? One "cell" down, another one soon to follow? I demand my right for self protection right now!!!!!!!!!!!

This was purchased new,or new to you?

Thanks Maks! Hehe Harley riders dont believe(refuse to believe) its a Harley probably because Porche had so much of a hand in the engine.

I got it at Ocean County HD. If you are coming over from sport bike land you may find the jump to a traditional HD too much of a jump. The V-Rod seems to be a better transistion. The tricky part is the V-Rod makes power very differently than other bikes. Where the M109R hit like a big block muscle car, the V-Rod spins up more like a Porche. So it does not feel fast even though the speed of the M109 and tthe Rod is almost identical. For me the riding position works out very well. The fit, finish and build quality of the bike is very good! Very different than the Dyna it replaced. I looked at the Ducati Diavel too although I didnt get hands on one. But I think its too close to my 1098 and I wouldnt really be gaining anything. So I went with the V-Rod. The bike feels tight, tracks well through a turn, and is responsive. Guys coming from a traditional harley would likely find the suspension harsh but coming from the other side of the fence it is more plush for sure. Pipe, air, fuel management and tune is on the short list once past break in!

Not a fan of the Des, its a bad design.

Thought about it Cage but I like having a not so intense bike too and the 1098 has better low end and mid range grunt than the 1199 which as you know is better for the street.

Who said that? Shooting and riding, been doing it life long and never likely to stop.

Your missing that the Duck didnt go anywhere The M109 is still at my house but its now my Dads. The Duck aint going anywhere, I love that bike! The black one, the street bob is what went bye bye and was replaced with the VRod.

Well that didnt take long. I picked up an 09 street bob not to long ago. I liked the looks. But after getting to spend a little time on it, it became quickly apparent it wasnt going to cut it for me. Riding position just to cramped and the weezing power was a real issue. Started adding up what it was going to cost to try and make it livable with a stage 1 kit and foward controls. Well...it just didnt seem like a worthy pursuit. Now I know Harleys are for cruising etc etc but Ive been on sports bikes for a looooooong time so I still need a little juice even in my cruiser. So I took it to the dealer and came home with a 2013V-Rod Muscle.

And their support is outstanding!

I think that scope comes in a couple variations. Overall I believe it has a good reputation and I believe it is deserved. Did you go mil adjustments first focal plane?

Still trying to connect with the attourney...

I also am concerned about length. Although the surefire is 2.7ish, it dont add 2.7 inches. Surefires tend to heavily overlap the barrel. So it may actually add less than 2" which wont be enough.

Clear huh? SFP or FFP? Mil/Mil or Mil/MOA or SMOA/SMOA or IPHY/IPHY? 30,34,or 35? Locking or non locking? Total elevation adjustment needed( 0,18,20, 40 moa base)? Going on a bolt gun or semi? BDC reticles are for fast shooting, not really long range precision shooting....

1500 is not high end. Thats not to say you cant get a good scope in that price range. But you really should identify needs and feature sets and go from there. Why do you want such high magnification? Also worth a look, if it meets your needs is the ss line frome swfa.

Would deal with again anytime! bdomer is GTG. Shane

Because NO ONE has ever gotten a clean rifle from me!!! :D:D Thank you!

As I always say Optics is nothing but compromise and tradeoff. I have run through the gambit more than a couple of times and continue to do so like a hamster on a wheel . When you start to look at 1-4's and 1-6's weight and balance becomes the consideration as well as eye reliefe. But in my view a lot of these decisions are dictated by role. And so I have moved from trying to find the 1 do it all to having options. So for example as part of my kit for my rifle i have on QR mounts, a T1 Micro, a TA11H-G, A US Optics 1.5-6 and a Hensholdt 4-16. The Acog lives on the rifle however. I intend on giving the T1 on an offset in tandem with the Acog a dance. The setups I did not like at all that never even got past the function test stage are the dot and 3x magnifier on a swing mount or the rds riding an acog like a pony.

What does the rim of the brass on the ammo with issues look like? Any signs of the extractor on the brass?

You also have to be careful about what mags you use in the 16. I only use metal mags in it.

Well that is making some assumptions on its intended use but any technology could be abused. But the market will dictate IMO. No one will buy one if it is being used that way. But it sure could be usefull in the event of lost or stolen gun, yaknow like all those MP5's the FBI looses every year , It depends who the target market is.

I admit I missed the "tracked by air" part but susect the microwave will still "fix" this fault

I cant really provide statistical data as I dot look before hand. Only that every time one goes down it seems to be a NH one. However there are several guys I shoot with that have WG ones and they dont seem to go down. And they, being Sig guys, always go NH sig? when one goes down so it certainly gives that implication as well. I am not a sig guy so take this as casual observation. Shane
