Having used both brands of scope extensively I expand on this and will push the ante to possibly be construed as condescending.
The Viper PST (and HS, in 1-4x flavor) takes a square and solid dump on any Bushnell that has ever been on the market. The quality of the Vortex PST glass is...
30 bucks here (per gun) in my bit of central FL is the best I can get (local pawn shop). Some dealers seem to be charging 40,50 even 60 bucks....crazy.
I've had a Spikes coated trigger and was less than impressed. The problem was not the coating....it was the underlying trigger, not the best. And that's the trouble with any GI trigger....there is variation in the manufacturing tolerances so you can never guarantee a great GI trigger, coated...
Big +1 on that; paper plates will serve you well for the reasons given. The other good thing with them as well is that they don't fall....so you don't have to set up that many, just a small row or pattern of them, then shoot them multiple times on a string moving back and forth between them -...
This is a very good video and is what I try to do every time; very solid technique which in a perfect world requires very little (if any) movement of the gun and position for the entire star. In my experience though, the trouble starts with these things when you happen to miss a plate....then...
Are you talking chrome lined or unlined?
I personally have a chrome lined S&W M&P15 barrel (1:9, FWIW) that has over 20k rounds through it. Predominantly fed by Brown Bear ammo (3MOA ammo), it still shoots the same as the day I bought it. Could there be some kind of slight opening up of the...
Exactly right - the premium/non premium PSA carriers are exactly the same, and as you say the only difference is between the bolt testing, one being MPI/HPT tested, the other not.
I picked up a non premium BCG when they were on sale and its been great.
As an aside, after extensive research...
Not really...I have one of each there are significant differences between the two. Both work well but the sparc has a better finer dot IMO, and the 6 hour auto shut off is nice. In addition the sparc comes with the mounts and magnifier, when you add it all up the gap between the PA and the...
It comes with a 2x magnifier - it works OK. Personally I'm not into magnifiers and dots - really a *very* poor relation to a proper scope - but the one that comes with it for free will do for you on occasion.
I have a Sparc on one of my AR's - great little optic for the $$, 3-4000 trouble free rounds now. Make sure you get it mounted nice and securely and that the battery cap is tight and you'll have no problems - the zero doesn't wander on these.
I don't believe they are anymore.....I think LW Schneider is currently supplying both the Palmetto safe/fire and pictogram ones now. I think they are even nicer lowers than the older aeros to be honest, a bit nicer finished.
No....Golden Tiger is lacquer coated and produced at the "Vympel" plant. Its not too bad either but fairly hard to find. Golden Bear is produced at Barnaul and as the poster above says it has a brass wash, so looks like regular brass ammo (although it is just a brass wash over steel).
All Bear is good ammo. I wouldn't bother paying the extra premium for the "Golden" however, as it all performs the same; bullet choice and powder loadings are the same throughout the Bear family.
Just maybe if you have a rifle that really seems to struggle with the lacquer coated Brown it...
Curious, was the DD block touching the rail at all times? I have VLTOR clamp with a TRX extreme - while its tight in there, there is enough room.
MrCleanOK.....I don't necessarily agree with your running order there - clamp is often better for the home installer as it negates the need to...
