I much prefer the older Mark II and Mark AR series with the covered 1/2 MOA turrets, they are my favorite standard hunting scope. You better pray to the God of Skinny Punks that this wind doesn't pick up......

My son and I got rained out of our prairie dog murders a little early today, so I was able to make the range. I have read a lot about the Mod 1's and CDS turrets turning easily, but I have not found that is a real problem for the 'flaves. I freely admit that I probably baby my rifles more than most. Here's a photo of some 'Flave Precision rifles riding in the back seat (rare by the way) when I pulled up to the range. Turrets were still zeroed after the 70 mile'ish drive to the range. Then I did a little recording of the Mod 1 in action. I'm on a video kick right now. Not sure why. Originally Posted by Geno67 Trump being classless,tasteless and clueless as usual.

I filmed the MK AR walking back from what I think most would consider reasonable hunting ranges. But the "Look how good I miss" brigade showed up. Gotta keep the ears peeled...
