[QUOTE="SCL, post: 20210, member: 1720"] Gents, Take a peek here for additionl info - I got tired of seeing this question so much I published an article about it. [url="http://www.snipercountry.com/InReviews/USO_3YearsLater.asp"]http://www.snipercountry.com/InReviews/USO_3YearsLater.asp[/url] Bottom line IMHO: USO is the best thing going for a U.S. Shooter engaged in long range and ultra long range shooting.
