    Meopta optika 5

    I have ones on a Rem 700 and T/C Icon, and no issues. I have heard of guys having to go up to slightly taller rings when using the Optika6 scopes.

    Meopta optika 5

    I have 4 Optika5 scopes, and I have had zero issues being able to see the reticle in low-light conditions while hunting. From open fields in KS to the timber in NE OK, zero complaints. I like the Z-Plus reticle so that I can use the drops. My favorite magnification configuration is the 3-15. At...

    Meopta customer service - How is it?

    You are most welcome. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks? I learned something as well! Glad it all worked out for you.

    Meopta customer service - How is it?

    I asked a very knowledgeable friend your question, and this is some information he passed along. I really should have gone to him in the first place. I hope this helps? https://www.shootingillustrated.com/content/eyepiece-adjustment-part-1-lpvos/

    It is probably because they do not know the answer.

    Inexpensive red dot for turkey gun

    I will be using Riton's new 3 Tactix EED on my turkey shotgun this Spring. I would also feel 100% confident using their 1 Tactix ARD. I have several of them on PCC that I use for fun and recreational competitions. For $99 they can't be beat. My EED currently sits on my Glock 34 and is huge fun...

    That has not been a working e-mail for him for over 6 months now. I do not want to pass his new one along without his permission.

    Meopta customer service - How is it?

    That is interesting, I have never heard of that issue before. Are you considering FOV when estimating magnification? In an Outdoor Life article, they said “It turns out to be tricky to measure apparent magnification of an optic, for reasons too mathematical and abstract to mention here.” Here...

    Does it get anymore fun than a 10/22 ?

    I love the furniture upgrades

    Got the Green Gator 10/22 dialed in

    It's been nothing but rimfire fun lately. Everyone has a blast shooting carnival-style steel targets at the range. Finally got around to adding a TacSol X-Ring barrel to this Special Edition Green Gator 10/22 and topped it with another Riton Optics 1 Primal 4-12X50 scope. So much fun shooting...

    Does it get anymore fun than a 10/22 ?

    I shoot all my 22s suppressed. Most of my rimfire suppressors are also rated for 17 HMR, one of my favorite critter gitters. I'll put Riton Optics 1 Primal 4-12X50 on at least 2 of them, just like the above rifle. Impressive low-light performance, which is what you need for corn thieves!

    Does it get anymore fun than a 10/22 ?

    So thankful I have 2 of these 10/22's. My son and I had many a timed competition dropping steel targets at varying distances. I had both barrels threaded for more quiet fun. I recently topped one with a Riton Optics 1 Primal 4-12X50 scope. For under $300, I am impressed with the brightness and...
