expectations met! great kit! crappy instructions though... but their phone support is great.

lol. just ordered package for my Shadow 2. i have high expectations!

How safe are those to handle? I’ve been using Montana gold because they are fully plated and lead safe to store and handle.

I use 55g Hornady soft point for reloads. all my barrels are 1:8. no issues...

as much as I hate NRA for not doing anything in NJ.. I still pay up...and anyone who is not NRA member should surrender their guns.

didn't you hear?? we will have an exchange points.. bring your old 15rd one and get 2x 10rd mags free.

i shot with various magnification. 15 to 25x. I use wheeler engineering green lazer boresighter. can see it at 50 yards fine in day light

so I had first range session with the scope. 100 yards only. I am medium level satisfied with the scope so far and I did find that eye box bit small and difficult to find at 25x. 20x is not a problem. I do agree that at 25x, reticle becomes rather thick. I think I would prefer just a dot in the middle and not a cross. can't comment yet of click adjustment and repeat ability but I did achieve my personal best group so far. at least at 100 yards, (I am just not a good rifle shooter, I was sure better result could be achieved) I think I am happy with price/performance overall.. shooting from bench with bipod and rear sand bag. I just can't get rifle perfectly stabilized and get comfortable cheek weld but it's a learning process for me.

thanks... sucks...

is that so? for sure ? I was considering one.

F150

have not taken it to range yet...optics seems clear but I doubt i can use full 25x magnification as eye box does seem small...also, I installed it with American Defence 34mm mount and it seems kind of too high so I might have to go to plain rings. will try to take it to range this week though..

ordered Burris XTR Gen 2 5 - 25 SCR MOA reticle... should be here any day..

thats' an idea.. I will also wait for memorial day sale.. i am sure optics planet will put some good stuff on sale! going used route is an option certainly.. I use http://www.riverofguns.com/cb/index.pl?s=nightforce to track deals. I actually have one now.. 4-14x 50. it's going back to IOR for repairs this week. parallax does not stay in focus... have to re-adjust after every shot. depending on how good their repair service is, I might consider it. optics is not bad on IOR. I like it. and it's old model.. at lease 7 years.

way more than I am willing to pay!

i sent mine in in November and got check in early February. no issues. friend of mine got his as well. I hated mine..with N batteries. I am not sure how you guys would trust optics that's known not to hold zero..

it looks as of now.. it's between Burris XTR II and Vortex Viper PST FFP or Vortex Viper PST FFP Gen2.. now gotta search for good deal..Vortex Viper PST FFP Gen2. seems to be back ordered and Burris just announces $100 rebate on XTR..

thanks! Nightforce is out NSX series at least(I had one and did not like illumination on it).. I like Vortex and Burris warranty... but based on this review.. Burris is not a good scope http://opticsthoughts.com/?p=1424

that's what I have now... I am thinking about upgrade..

Thank you Sir! I hear eye box is small on them but good scope otherwise. What's your take on it? Where did you buy it from? Sounds like good price! do you shoot at cherry ridge?

HI All, I am pondering many options for a scope to put on top of my new Savage BA stealth in 308 somewhat under $2k preferred.. with 20x zoom range. FFP. needs to be quality optics with reliable adjusters and should be able to withstand bouncing and such... right now here is what's on the list.. share your thoughts pls. Viper Razor HD gen 1 Steiner T5Xi 5-25x56mm Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50 FFP Burris XTR Gen 2 5x25

yeah.. I got the rifle back. Mike says rifle is fine and it's me. I have not had a chance to take it to range and try different shooting technique.

rifle is now at Tier 1.. let's see what they come back with.
