    Which Sightron scope would you use/recommend

    I wanted to get 6-24 FFP mil/mil but Jerry said mil based scope is useless. Here's his reply "I think if you are going to be match/paper shooting, the MOA set up is going to be WAY easier to use. If you are field shooting and the other shooters use Milrad, by all means... keep the units...

    Which Sightron scope would you use/recommend

    Which Sightron scope would you use/recommend

    guess my calculation was wrong about their reticle hash marks. They are true to 2 MOA on 24X and 1.5 MOA each at 32X. So even with 8-32 model I can still use reticle for holds at 32x

    Question about Whidden pointing die internals, if you have one

    This thread is not for discussion about if it's worth it or not, so please avoid such responses. I have a question for people who own one of these. From what I can see they use Forster seating die body with their caliber sleeves, die inserts and pointing die base. My question is, is it...

    Question about custom dies

    So if die was .002" under and you were still getting bolt click, how much under would you recommend? Or is there something else that can be done to the die to make it better? I'm asking so I can talk to die manufacturer and request that measurement/design.
