You get a lot of bang for the buck if you spend $100 more for a Swampfox Arrowhead 1-6x24. Significant improvement over the Tomahawk or TruGlo Omnia. FWIW, Swampfox is made/owned by a reputable Chinese OEM that also makes the FFP Diamondback Tactical scopes for Vortex.

For home defense, you want the optic to be illuminated whenever you grab it. Three ways to accomplish "always-on": * Motion-on (shake-awake) * Multi-year battery life (many reflex red dots) * Tritium-illuminated ACOG Here's a list of 96 optics that meet the "always-on" requirement The list is...

There are a variety of options for ballistic calculators: phone apps, websites, and embedded in devices (laser rangefinders, Kestrel weather meters, Garmin GPS, rifle scopes, etc.). For an in-depth discussion of ballistic calculators, see...

Sig Sauer Echo3 doesn't have GPS, but it does have WiFi and BlueTooth to let it talk to Sig Sauer BDX laser range finders.

I maintain an optics database of nearly all major-brand optics (1400+ optics). Every listing includes Country of Assembly (it was not an easy task to collect that data). It's the only resource that I know to exist that lists Country of Assembly for every optic. Enjoy...

Extracted from this list of all LPVOs, here are all the LPVOs under 20oz, sorted by weight: oz Brand Product 9.6 Leupold Mark AR MOD 1 1.5-4x20 12.0 Leupold VX-R 1.25-4x20 12.0 Leupold VX-R Patrol 1.25-4x20 13.1 Leupold VX-5HD 1-5x24 CDS-ZL2 13.4 Leupold...

Not enough eye relief? I interpret that to mean the ocular end of the scope is sticking back rearwards too far towards your eye. This is more of a mounting issue than a scope issue. Simply changing to a different rifle scope is unlikely resolve your issue, and short eye relief on a scope is...

If the rifle is easy to bore sight, I don't bother to reset to mechanical center. After scope is mounted, proceed directly to bore sighting. Remember to account for sight height over bore (center-to-center) when bore sighting indoors. Example: desired zero = 300 feet, muzzle-to-wall = 10 feet...

Given the choice, I'd go 1-piece. It is more rigid, and more flexible (lol, that's a funny sentence).

For what's it is worth, here's a list of all prism scopes (50) with pictures of all available reticles (114).

Lol, you got me. Debating whether 1 MRAD at 100 yards is 3.6" -0.001" or +0.0000012"? If milli-minutia were a word, it may apply here.

1 MRAD subtends 1/1000 of the distance to the target. At 100 yards, 1 MRAD = 100 yards / 1000 = 3.600 in. At 100 meters, 1 MRAD = 100 meters / 1000 = 10 cm. A radian is the angular measure if you wrap one radius around the circumference (2 pi radians = 360 degrees). A milliradian is 1/1000 of a...

Just to be clear, 1 mil is *exactly* 3.6 inches at 100 yards. More generally, a mil is 1/1000 of the range to the target. You may recognize 3.6 inches as 1/10 of a yard (100 yards * 1/1000).

Both are discontinued scopes. Weaver is done, Vista Outdoor is shutting down Weaver scopes (still making rings, etc.), because it directly competes with their Bushnell brand.

I don't think they ship to merchants for another couple weeks.
