In this case an Enfield, and a KSG
Oh yeah you don’t want mil reticle and MOA turrets, I ran a DMR like that for a deployment. Many math.
There isn’t any actual difference between mil and MOA, it’s the gun equivalent of inches vs centimeters
I like the idea of mil, it sounds easier to gauge distances with
which would be nice if anyone made one
The only company I've found so far that makes mil dot scopes with mil adjustments is vortex
Idk where your looking but there’s just as many mil scopes as MOA
So I just got back and ended up doin 9 miles. Did any of you lazy fuckers go with me?
I'm seeing a ton of scopes with mildots but moa turrets
I did 5.6
@Artemis are you looking at the Internet from 2012? 🤨
I got a vortex gen 1 pst 4-16x ffp for $350 and I love it
Yeah, I was dummy and got me a scope with moa turrets and mildots on it. It was big dumb.
So once I have my zero, I will only be using mildots. Thank god I'm not a sniper.
I'm looking at trijicon, leupold, and nightforce primarily. All three don't seem to make a single scope with mrad adjustments
They have mil reticles, but not adjustments
If you are gonna get a Mildot scope I'd reccomend 1st focal plane so you can actually make range estimations with it
I promise nightforce and trij do.
Idk about leupold but they should
You can do range est with both but with 2nd fp you have to be at max magnification
I've found one that looks like it fits my requirements. The nightforce shv 4-14x50 f1. First focal plane mildot reticle with 0.1 mrad adjustments at a price I can sorta reasonably afford
Oh I had one of those once! That’s an awesome choice man
It doesn’t do it justice, but that’s it on a Remington 5R
The reticle is much more visible than that to your eye
As far as reticles, there’s a learning curve, but the Horus/tremor style reticles offer a lot of capability over a traditional mil-dot style crosshairs
Seems like everything I've read about it is good. I think I'll start saving up for it.
Have you considered buying used?
Yeah, it looks like I'll be able to knock maybe 300 off the msrp price tag that way, but I still have to save up for it
Gotcha
The problems with being poor but not *a poor*
Hahah it is truly the worst spot
Do the mounting holes on the Remington 700 accept most direct scope mounts or is there a certain form factor to look out for?
Planning on using a single piece mount if i can
Figured this would probably be good

Yea you can put a 1913 rail on there
Have you checked armslist?
I just briefly checked OK and there are some nice precision rifles on there
While looking around it seemed like it would be more optional to mount it directly. At least according to the spuhr website
Haven't looked yet but I won't be buying the rifle for a few months anyway
I’d check it out there’s a couple really good deals right now
