Other KZfaq creators are saying the exact opposite as to the placement of the reticle. Who do we believe?

Crazy how you made a video recommending them, just to say you’ve barely put any miles on them?😂 thanks for the ez block BoZo

That's cool, how do you keep it feeding and not jamming up though?

(4:54) I won't hide the screw heads. Rather, it'll b better to use longer screws and keep the heads exposed after the rubber cushion had mated w the wooden buttstock. This is bc. if u strip the screw head (as my used previous gun owner had done), it'll b very difficult to take those screw out. So what if u or ur shooting buddies make comment on the shinny exposed screw head on the recoil pad? And it won't hurt ur shoulder either. Had to slice off the rubber to expose the stripped scrw hds. I kant use the original (prev. owner's) recoil pads any more, must spend $20 - $30 for a new one. There comes a time when u'll need to access the long bolt head that attach the buttstk to the receiver and the recoil pad must come out easily!!! I did appreciated ur chaulk method. For my case, i just drill the two holes all the way thru from the back, w/o the use of Mr. Xacto knife. Make sure to use a drill press to drill the holes perpendicularly. If u don't have a drll prss, then drill perpendicular hole thru a piece of 2 x 4 using someding(something) that is square as a reference, drill a hole w ur hand drill, then use that as a guide to drill perpendicular holes thru the recoil pad n buttstk. Yes, a light removable glue at the back of the pad would help too.

I bought a .17 CZ 455 the scope I was supplied with the gun, the reticule obliterated targets at 150 yards. Can you advise on an appropriate scope for this gun. Many thanks. Glynn

al at 150 yards, a clean kill would have been impossible, Any help you can offer would be very gratefully received .many thanks Elspeth.

I bought a.17 CZ 455 four years ago. Its sat in my gun cabinet unused since. The reason ,when I bought the gun ,the numnut sales spiv, when I told him I wanted to shoot small game out to 150 yards and beyond i.e. rabbits etc supplied me with a scope that's reticule obliterated the whole animal at 150 yards, a clean kill would have been impossible, Any help you can offer would be very gratefully received .many thanks Elspeth.

How does 243 do from shorter barrels? I am trying to put together a nice hiking rifle so I need a lighteright gun and short barrels really help there. I havent decided on my chambering. I really would like a 6mm since they seem to be super versatile, able to take everything from prarie dogs to elk, but I want to be able to buy the ammo from any big box store so 243 looks perfect, but if shooting it from a 18 inch tube basically gives me a 6ARC, I may as well use 6ARC. . .

6 arc ammo and brass has finally become more available, YES!

Im abt to put on a cheap new rem 700. In 30-06. Can i use these rings that came with it? And any recomendations wld be great. Hey there from canada!

Can you convince your friends at boyds to make a stock for the new Stevens 334 bolt actions please and thank you

Did you notice as I did that the length of pull adjustment was short.? Meaning, that max length of pull when adjusted as far out as possible was about 14 1/2”. Which is where I’m at. So if your length of pull is longer you may want to order accordingly from Boyd’s. Thanks for the review! It swayed me to choose this stock for a Mauser 98 in 30-06. Love it so far.

Good information like to see 7mm-08 in that line up!

I have the Nikon mounted on my .308 Remington 700 and it is a great scope. I have 4 Arkens on .22 Bergara B14R, Bergara HMR 300 PRC, 5.56/.223 AR, and RPR.308. I have had zero problems taking any of them out to range. The Nikon is a bit clearer but not enough for me say the Arken is unusable. I find it quite usable!! I can appreciate your opinion and I have not wasted a single dollar on any of the Arkens. I have both SH4 versions in magnification and 2 in the SH4J. I have dialed and used the hold overs to as of success as I am capable. The parallax numbering is like most it is a ballpark figure to get you to a quick starting point. I will keep mine and continue run them and I hope you have better luck with your future scopes.

Fixed scopes are first focal plane. I have been watching your videos for years what are you talking about there bro? I am sorry your channel hasn't taken off better. Thanks for the video. best of luck to you in the future. BTW for all the small Calber comments. I have a fixed 20X in my rpr in 300prc and I am smoking sub moa targets out a 1000yrds. these are the best BANG for the buck by a long shot...pun intended.

I launch 75 gr eld match out of my Bergara 22 250 with a 9 twist. It smokes my sons Valerie, 22 arc, 6 dasher et al. Almost nothing is thus flat to 1k. Thing is nobody is shooting pdogs at 1k. 750 is about the limit unless you waste 20 rnds per splat. If yoy are shooting paper, its just a scope adj.

I have a real Remington M24. I don't want a 10 X fixed scope but I do want the quality. I will be shooting moving targets up to 1000 yards. What would you recommend? I don't want to deal with crappy chromatic problems or spending 10 minutes. Calculating distance. What would you buy up to $2000 Thanks!

It is made in China, like many products because the only thing missing here is to speak Chinese; nobody can reverse what have been done, nobody, even high ends are still made overseas to save cost while charging an eye and a leg for it. Exports from China are all about profits, not quality and we all already know that.

How are the new Bushnell elite scopes?

so on the sfp lpvo when you sight the optic in you do it on x8 and when you need to make close range shots you put it to x1 and its still accurate? i thought the shot at x1 would be pretty off if its sighted in at x8 im trying to understand this because i just got one

My personal opinion , it’s easily one of the top ten cartridges ever developed. I’ve owned three. Model 70 featherweight , Savage model 110 , currently a Browning Bar MK 3 Stalker . From woodchucks , coyotes and deer . The cartridge does its job , if you do your part, at typical ranges . Just sayin . Great video , informative.!!!

Thanks for such an informative video.

“How peculiar”. Not at all. The armor was not supported on the second shot.

What is the typical max bullet weight of the 6.5 prc ?

I use the fusion 243 95 grain

The biggest aberration in this video is that disaster of a wood pile.

I hope everything is ok been a while since you've posted anything new and been missing your content?!!

Ashame they went to hell and discontinued this lineup.

You've made some interesting vids in the recent past. This is not one of them. You could take your comments about Arken and apply them to almost any optics firm, for one reason or another. Arkens are not trying to compete with Trijicon, Burris, Leopold, Vortex, Athlon, SWFA (possibly American firms) etc.. Rather, Arken offers hardy, 'good-enough glass' for a budget buyer. What can be wrong with that? Your petty arrogance astonishes me.

Wow

Extremely well done video! Thanks much!

Glue....works wonders on that type of thing.

Does the manual have the turret graduations? Like how many MOA is between the range markings on the .22lr turret?

🤣🥱

The SWFA classic are the best value in scopes and it's not even close. It's the only scope I can think of where I guy can justify having 4 or 5 of them. I only have two but I can see at least one or two more. I personally think the 12x42 is the honey of the lineup-- not too much magnification for the glass quality, reasonable FOV, perfect MilQuad reticle.

Honestly this seems like a good precision 22lr scope

Miss seeing you on here sir! When will we see some more great reviews? Hope you're doing well? God bless sir!

i bought Merrell boots and haven’t looked back at overpriced no good keen’s. went through several pairs so it wasn’t just one and done

Maybe I missed it, are u using trail boss?

I love a good ol 4x fixed power for small game

never understood why people need audible clicks.

I swear by the X Ultra 3's. I dayhike in them and I have backpacked in them with 15-25 lbs throughout Torres del Paine in Chile (80 miles). Could definitely light -medium backpack in them with replacement insoles like the superfeet hike for more stability and foot support. Ankle lock can be achieved with those insoles + heel lock lacing technique.

Good gravy son 243. Whew ! Wee ! But if you want to get real flat it's 220 swift 3800-4000 fps

Nice review! It looks like a very good scope. At 15:05, is it just me or does the MOA reticle look smaller than the MIL reticle at 12X magnification? The circle looks noticeably smaller, as does the Xmas tree and the ranging feature.

Where'd you go man? 10 months since last post.

I like the Valkyrie, but the velocity listed is not realistic from the average AR15. It’s even optimistic in a bolt gun.

Cool Gun! Question what action was this?

AR-10-308

So you have to see the wind. Are you serious dude. You obviously are spoiled. The only dam thing 95 percent of use care about is seeing our deer. If you’re shooting long range with a $300.00 dollar scope then you probably need to get a different hobby. I respected you until this video

I can't seem to find any of the ss198lf ammo anywhere. Do you have any suggestions?
