I've shot them at Cola. If I could only have one, I see the argument.

Being as I can piggyback a RMR on a TA31 I don't think I'll ever get one. I would get smallcog or memecog or girthcog personally before I got a TA33

It's absurd to think you gotta spend 3-5k  in optics on a 1k rifle.

There truly is a cut off point.   I've spent more time behind a Bushnell than I ever did an ACOG as an 11b.  They both held up.

Why don’t you research some more and see who is behind zco.  

TT and ZCO are where it’s at if you appreciate the best glass and durability.  

March is just autistic designs except for the 1-10

As usual it depends on your use case. TA-33 is lighter, smaller, and has more generous eye relief. I have personally never found eye relief to be an issue with the TA-31, and the TA-31 has much better FOV and of course a bit more magnification. I also live in a pine swamp so 3X is fine for me, it may not be for a guy in Montana.

Jokes on you, most PRS guns have weights bolted onto them to be heavier on purpose.

I'm the Athlon double poors, so I've used diving weights rigged up with gorilla duck tape before.

I have used a bunch of different lpvos and red dots.

I never like trying to look through any of them whenever they out you in weird shooting positions where you end up some mags in your kidneys as you crouch down to rest the rifle on the side of the track, after I just ran a mile and did an obstacle course in full kit

The worst is trying to shoot at some distance, and timing my trigger squeeze with my heavy breathing and the urge to throw up

I really like the TA31 as long as I am on a bench or standing.  But as soon as I go prone or shoot from an improvised rest of some sort, the TA33 shines for me.  The TA31 eye relief becomes a real issue for me whenever I have to make do with a so/so shooting position I find my face getting love tapped by the bezel.

For glass, I’ll trust Glassaholic’s comprehensive review rather than someone’s snide opinion.

As for bipods, the Atlas is too wiggly for me and the spiked feet are useless when laying prone in mud. A stable , wide platform is critical. Also, I could easily remove it and replace with something lightweight and flimsy whenever I want.

SCAR 6.5 CM is plenty accurate. I’m not a gamer or benchrest shooter.

The TA33 just has a FOV reduction to make people mount it further forward where the eye box is best. Most ACOG’s except the TA11 have over efficient prism designs, meaning the prism is capable of more than the objective lens size is.

Mount your TA31 an inch further forward. The eye box will be better in both eye relief and exit pupil forgiveness but you’ll see the FOV reduced with shadowing. Now imagine adding a ring on the front to block out the objective shadowing.

Boom. The concept of the TA33. (They just moved the objective forward on a TA50 to achieve the effect.)

If you go to Trijicon’s social media you’ll see their employees never run their ACOG’s at close eye relief. They’re all 3-4” out on TA31’s and only move forward when they need the peak FOV. They’re doing it right, but your average person will lose their mind at the thought of using an optic at peak eye box instead of peak FOV. So people mount them at peak FOV where the eye box is worst.

It’s not snide comments it’s literally a known quantity in the PRS community or anything that involves high end optics. I never said anything about atlas but there’s a reason there’s about 3 bipods that’s are standard. I like that gamer or bench rest shooter is suppose to be a dig. Dudes shooting gas gun, sniper comps etc where you are moving, shooting positional etc would look at that rifle and see a pile of contradictions and identity crisis. Really in the end it comes down to my initial statement. People don’t know what they don’t know.

We’re talking past each other. Different priorities. I don’t want a heavy ass bolt action gamer gun.

As for the bandwagon effect, most people have Vortex optics. Not because they are the best, but because they practically give them away at matches and they are good enough to win with.

People just usually ask me if I want to shoot a match and I say yes.

Then I look up whatever rules they have and enter the division that covers whatever I currently have and then I shoot the guns

As for the bandwagon effect, most people have Vortex optics. Not because they are the best, but because they practically give them away at matches and they are good enough to win with.

Most people at matches that aren't on some kind of gibbs deal with Vortex or someone else have either Nightforce or Athlon depending on how poor they are.

You're usually okay at shooting the guns.

I’m not talking about heavy ass bolt guns. I’m talking about people who want an accurate, weight appropriate gas gun. No most people don’t have vortex optics when it comes to competition. Some of us actually go out and get hands on with all brands of scopes and make informed decisions from first hand experience not from some online review. You literally didn’t know who ZCO was. Obviously this isn’t your thing.

Okay out to 800

Absolutely horrible at those really fast rifle competitions where targets are like max 25yds and people pantomime the course before running.

Pretty awesome from 100-400. I think I was the fastest time at East last year with two misses

All depends on the course. I want to try the steel challenge meme

Ill be straight up, I'm not familiar with ZCO. In the context of the thread, they are the best 5.56 AR optics?
