Worked out concept data on 'BDC Reticle Error Range' since many shooters (optics reps included) struggle with how they work and how easily POA & POI can coincide. But not ready to publish yet till it's final review of how easily read and understood. Seen big movement back to good old fashion...

Interesting...not many Dealers even know Vortex is like the modern day version of Tasco. Timing is often the "rest of the story". Husband and wife got into sport optics via binoculars, back when Night Force was experiencing major delivery fulfillment issues, and Leupold had just done a great...

Good point...so to better clarify----Times when one would/should; "recenter a scope reticle; buying a used scope, installing any scope on another rifle, installing scope that has had the W&E dials played with, last but not least-running out of adjustment. What techniques are used???

:?: Wondering who recenters a scopes reticle, and what procedures they use? Posted looking for the different types, and the percentages of those different types. :!: Caution---Counting clicks for many scopes is inaccurate! New & used. Recently after sending customers back 3X to a famous...

Intent wasn't alignment to the bore as that shows the POI results, but rather to wring out the scopes integrity. Sadly, many makers scopes have too much deviation and buyers have no idea how bad many are. One critical error in many manuals, and still pushed by many so called Customer/Technical...

Don, Sorry to read of a Signature scope problem. They were one of the finest scopes ever made. Some snuck out w/a special coating that looked like there was none or very little on it. That done by a company who does satellite glass and I'll take almost everyone I can find! All Signatures were...

Orange or green dots can be used if you have scope w/very high magnification. Just draw a small center dot w/in the colored dot to help w/aiming. Make sure barrel, sling, sling lug, etc. ISN'T on the rest, or bag. Before shooting remember to check specs on scope vertical travel....from the...

Well wife is off to Alaska...and the Honey Do List will soon start. Oh, wait, silly me it never stopped. Ever! :lol: Back to that "Tips & Tricks" Windage is very much like passing gas from your Southern Rear Discharge Port. You know it's there, butT you don't know whether it's quiet...

Skidmark, Sorry to read of the issues, here's info you may find helpful, and soothing. Your scope was made around 2010 so it should have the Dual Bias Spring (copied from Burris) and should hold up. Prior to 2009 they used only one spring, and were definitely in need of upgrading other...

So your the S :grin: B that sent my buddies license plate # to the Police when we pulled off letters on the building from a rival nameless school! It was 1:30 AM, parked the dark blue Mustang a block away, walking in the dark shadows, all wearing dark clothing, 1/4 Moon, and tall bushes at the...

ZEISS Diavari/Victory were and still are made in Deutschland. Conquest glass/internals made in Germany, shipped to Meopta for finish assembly 2010 Zeiss Sports Optics loses past president/vp/sales manager to Burris who owns...Steiner. Watch out for Burris. Very profitable, and always had good...

No physical experience w/the 'X' models, did have the great ATS models, had great Leica 77, had great Fujion, had great older Meopta 70 too. Still have a bunch of dust collecting eyepieces I should sell. Modularity that's only...about equal in weight w/eyepiece, shorter by only...a little over...

SJB358 nailed it on the price vs. popularity. Behind the Iron Curtain, thus importation was banned for decades. So, Meopta has not been well known Stateside, and had assembled Zeiss Conquest using Zeiss glass, some components in NY for years. Zeiss rep (had Pinocchioits) swore they made all of...

Forgot to add this tip not in the Leupold instructions on installing 70/30 style ring caps. Eliminate scratching the scope by using a string, shoe lace, etc. and loop thru the ring screw holes, pulling outward will flex the cap enough to slip it over the tube w/out scratching it, or damaging...

6-48 & 8-40 were specifically and exclusively created for the firearms industry. VX6 isn't heavy, nor highly mounted, so 6-48 is more than enough. 700's have had, still do some trouble areas to check: 1. Hole edges often are cratered (raised), so the base won't fully bottom out. If so, take a...

Interesting post and replies. Original Redfield JR/SR has had a few names over the years: Leupold-Standard, Burris-Universal, Weaver-Steel Dovetail, and they do interface...except early Redfield's that had 8-32" Windage screws vs. later 10/32". There are a few very important steps, one in...

Hello, Just joined the Forum, and while cruising thru the Topics ran across this one. Burris makes couple different types, and was wondering what ring & base you used?
