GuynamedDave, that thing is sick as fuck man. Very nice. Folks have covered that it is a level already. Cant in your reticle can have a great change in the point of impact on your rifle. Cant is one of the things that plays into a proper sight alignment portion of the shooting fundamentals. There is a nice write up on accurate shooter found here if anyone cares to learn more about the effects of cant. |

We had to leave before they called a cease fire, because we spent too much time (and ammo) on the Tactical Range shooting this, and our new Powder Springs MAC 10. Some folks here say the novelty of FA wears out fast, but we sure haven't found that to be the case. My son hasn't sent me pics of the MAC in action, but a suppressed .45 Cal buzzgun is way too much fun. |

Finally close to finishing my KAC MRE Recce. Was going for a MSG Horrigan style, but with a few deviations. Still need its own bipod (borrowed from Mk12) and SBR'ed lower (borrowed this one from Mk18, excuse the tan grip). And a NT4 of course I wanted to do a Docter with the TRR/TRC setup but if I do I don't think I can get the eye relief where I want it. https://farm1.staticflickr.com/268/20006299816_8366ac46d8_c.jpg View Quote You don't really need a Docter piggy backing your Leupold. The 1.5X is fine for CQB. I was actually bang'in my 6" steel plate at 200yds before work today....I absolutely love this setup with that glass! I didn't think 5X would be sufficient enough. For grouping at distance, its a little difficult to see center of a target, but for steel, I know I could have had no problem at 300. (Furthest the range goes out to, and only after hours on Saturday) Shooting 75gr OTM that I rolled up this morning, zero'd at 50, confirmed at 200. My mod1 is getting jelly with all the attention the Recce is getting! |

Followed that with Krylon "earth brown" randomly misted over random and sporadic spots, final coat is Krylon "Forrest green", sprayed through several handfuls of long grass from the side of the road. Turned out quite well. It's greener in person than the pictures show. At the range: " /> |
