I have no real good reason for it, but I think I threw a piece of tape over the top of the rail, just to keep those numbers. LOL. WHY?????
Thanks... I like this scope better than the 2x7 VX-1 I sometimes have on there. That thing just looks too small and wrong. And 9x is better from the bench...... |

Nice shooting DevL
Hey Tanner, what type of mag baseplate is that and where did you get it? Bzugger, there's something especially nice about yours. And that's saying a lot because everyone's is really nice. Probably is the paint job and your Vltor you don't see a lot of. |

Thanks for the compliment. I need some better pics. Tannerb... lookin fresh

I guess my take on M4 and CQBR uppers.. Thought about building clones, but I think these are more versatile. (Just like, my opinion maaaan.)

I try not to be a clone snob. But dat MOE just don't look right. I would've thought better of you. Now me on the other hand.......
That is an awesome build. You shoot it with that scope yet? I was wondering how you like it. I keep debating on optics for me recce... Seems like it needs to be a 1-4 or something similar to look right. But like I said, I'm no strict cloner..... And will I just be thinking I want more magnification all the time. That being said, I did a range session once with this A1 I had. With a 4x carry handle scope and actually shot pretty well. So I'm not sure 4x isn't enough to be fun and have good results. It wasn't sub MOA or anything like that. But 1.5-2 MOA consistent. With an A1. And a carry handle. So....... But then I'll want a real sopmod stock....... And those aren't cheap. |

But of course by his assertion we should all have 72mm objectives on our riflescopes, that way we can see at night (and have 7 feet of eye relief)!!

Got mine out shooting today. Had some technical difficulties so only fired a few groups. 69gr FGMM shot the best for me.
Groups were fired off a concrete bench utilizing a Harris bi-pod (no rear bag). Need to try out some more ammo and get a rear bag to help with stability. Attached File Attached File |

Ha I'm trying out the MOE because it's lighter than the SOPMOD. Trying to keep the weight down especially since I'm adding an aimpoint to the mix.
I haven't shot this build yet, but I have plenty of time behind the NF x24. Great scope in a smaller package. Originally Posted By JJREA:

I felt like I was embedding my teeth through my cheek, into the stock to get behind my scope in my larue mount. Now if I had that taller mount KevinB has, it wouldn't have been like that. They make a lot of sense cuz of the flat part on the bottom for bench / precision shooting for your left hand. But my face couldn't live with it. I had a regular one too and not a moe. But I didn't think they were that much lighter than a sopmod....... |
