How many MOA or mils wide are those targets?

He's a riflebuilder not a math teacher.....

It's not a tough question, really it isn't.

Depends how far he's into the 2nd six pack....

Mil dot.

I have two of these in mil/mil now. I see two more in the future...


Travis

I dunno.

I don't worry about hitting them. I worry about hitting them where I want to hit them.



Travis

I was just thinking about how far away I could wail on one with my little 1.5-4x20 AR Mod 1.

2nd?

SUN-day people. SUN-day!



Travis

He's a [bleep]' riot.



Travis

No doubt you'll get to the five.



Travis

I got some interesting looks at the range when I had it strapped aboard a 308 with a 27 1/4" long, #7 contour barrel.

I always get strange looks at the range. I can never tell if it's because of my awesome shooting, my good looks, or my not wearing pants.



Travis

It has to be the shooting.

I have 2 of the 3x9's and my exp. is similar to that of Travis. I have twisted on them and they have returned back to their original position.

Thinking of going up in magnification on my next one, at this stage I could use a little help (LOL)

I'm stayin' 3-9X. I love those [bleep]' things!



Travis

I wish the 3-9 had an AO.

they are VX2 glass, and one of the best deals in that price range right now.

Quick question for ya 'flave.....

Upon first glance, how do you know your turret is at 'zero' when the dial is on '0'? You could be 5 MILs high or 5 MILs low.... there's no way to visually tell what revolution of the turret you're on? With the older ones, there was no scale either, however, with 1/2 MOA clicks there was 30MOA per revolution. There's no way you can get two full revolutions, and with most calibers you can get well over 1k with a single revolution.

I love the Mark AR series, I can see three of them on rifles from here. And, I've no aversion to MIL/MIL either, as I can see a couple SWFA SS's for here too. My main issue with the MOD series is this simple lack of detail in this area.

Just to keep pace.... here's a video of a chick I used to know running an older Mark AR 3-9 on a ghetto .243 at 600.

I don't know how I know. I just zero it out when I'm done twisting and throw it back in the truck. It stays on zero until I use it again.



Travis

What if you look down and it's on '2.5' which direction do you turn it to '0'?
