The .308 cartridge will limit you to about 1000m, and if you plan to take large game with it, you will be limited even more due to its terminal performance reduction at max range. However, a Remington 700 Police in .300 Win Mag or 7mm Rem Mag would get you much closer to accomplishing that goal. The Police series Remington rifles are usually VERY good shooters as quality control is very strict. Mate this rifle with any one of my "top pick" optics in your price range, and you'll be set :-)

I would like to thank you Tiborasaurus Rex for educating me on the things no one else I know personally can teach me. Its not that you just teach it you explain it so well that damn near anyone can listen to you and learn something useful costing nothing but a couple hours of life (which are well spent if i do say so my self). I have made it official as soon as I have the money I am buying a SWFA SS 10X42 before next season so thank you again for making me a better marksmen!

Pillar bedding basically prevents the wood cells from compressing over time and puts much of the pressure on the aluminum. There should be lots of good resources out there on how to pillar bed a rifle. Unfortunately, I took care of all my own equipment before I started doing videos, so I don't have any videos of how to do it.

If you crank up the magnification and you appear to be zooming in on the reticle, its a 1st focal plane, if the crosshairs don't appear to be getting farther or closer as you change magnification, it a 2nd focal plane reticle.

In addition to range finding, the reticle will be very helpful for applying precise hold off, especially when complicated firing solutions are introduced. Constants like coriolis and spin drift can be indexed on the turret allowing you to concentrate on the fluctuating wind patterns alone for the proper applied hold-off. Its possible to dial it all in, but changing winds combined with the other traverse corrections can be mind-boggling if you don’t separate them. FFP allows us to do this.

Although light transmission and other quantitative measurements are often cited as measures of optical quality, they are only individual aspects of wide band of optical quality parameters. Quantifying true optical QUALITY is much more complex and warrants a much deeper study into the particular lens components being used and their arrangements within the tube. In summary, each scope needs to be looked at very closely to make that quality determination. Generally speaking: APO (HD glass) is #1

No prob. If it was me, I would wait and save my coin until I could get the 1 good optic. However, if you want a budget optic that will work good I would recommend the SWFA SS10X over the Millet. An inexpensive variable is a usually bit of a gamble for these applications. If you have your heart set on a Nigthforce, make absolutely sure to get one with the reticle in the FFP and the same units on the turrets as in the reticle.

10X is the best for 500-1000m in my opinion. 16X is a bit much. If you insist on more power, you probably want to get the HD model - otherwise you will just be zooming in on the optical abberations and won't get any more clarity than the 10X. Be sure to study all of the Long Range Optical Parameters videos before you drop any coin on an optic :-) I discuss magnification ranges in more detail.

Fixed 10X is still hard to beat for ruggedness and reliability, but you ca find a variable like a Hawke or a Falcon for a pretty fair price. You really have to sort through these things and look at each model individually. There are numerous parameters to consider. For $1K, you could do a descent IOR, which would be a bit better in my opinion.

Very good video! I have a few of each type (fixed and variable). I keep a variable on my 308 bolt action but I learned that it was far better to use a 3 or 4 power fixed optic on my AR's. Personally, I have found that the best setup for an AR is a 3.5x compact scope with a mini red dot mounted directly on top. That will do everything you need to do within the realistic capabilities of the 5.56 round. You have a red dot for CQB and the 3x or 4x for mid ranges.

Either one would work fine at those ranges...depends on the nature of your targets - faster movers like coyotes or antelope at close range may warrant 6X. 10X would be better for the longer distances and for tactical apps or for game that move more slowly.

Every optic has its designed purpose my friend :-) This one was designed for quick and easy indexing of approximate elevations for the generic .308 168gr target loads out there - in that purpose (for quick, easy target interdiction) this is just fine. Beyond 600m, your capabilities with this optic may be more limited. If you wanted precision capabilities all the way out to 800m, then you would need something different. Durability is fine, for sporting purposes.

As an avid shooter, I prefer a second focal plane scope. I was formerly an Army Ranger Sniper. Why you ask? Contrary to what you have stated in this video, scope manufacturers have calculated the drop and windage in all aspects of the second focal plane scopes now. They have ballistic software that completely nullifies what you have said is "fact" in this video. The grain of the projectile, muzzle velocity, ballistic coefficient, spin drift, parallax, and everything concerning the shot is taken in to account. I personally use Hawke scopes. Hawke has their own proprietary ballistics software that nullifies everything that you said about second focal plane scopes. I also use a lazer range finder to range my targets. The batteries last for years and it is VERY accurate. With this software, I can put my first shot on target at extreme ranges, i.e.: past 700 meters up to 1200 meters. Punching in the variables are quick and easy. In the military, we used a hand held computer to do this 20 years ago. This software is now easily accessible on your "smart phone" or "iPad" and with a few gadgets, windage can be estimated accurately easily at short ranges. Long range windage can vary from left to right forward and back, so those long range shots may take a skilled shooter to discern. Second focal plane scopes also have a parallax adjustment that not only focuses the shot but eliminates the problem of direct center eye placement to the reticule. I''m sorry to say this, but your discussion is flawed in many ways. J.D. Hall Retired USA 1A1 Rng. Det.

What part of the video are you talking about? About half way through? He did not talk about using the turrets to get your angular displacement from zero, he's only talking about using /in reticle/ angle measurements. You can't deny that second focal plane reticles change the value of what a mil is at different magnifications. If you have a high quality sfp scope and only use your reticle for ranging at the appropriate magnification and use your turrets and /not in reticle/ holdoffs at lower magnifications. Then you'd be fine. His point is that the simplicity is better bc people get battle brain. You're not wrong, but neither is he.

Great question.

Tyler Kemp did some good promotional vids for GAPrecision, they're here on YT and SnipersHide. Filming through a scope is another matter...

After watching your videos I went and checked and discovered that they were all set on 6X. So I tried messing with my magnification values and I started missing. Went back to 6X and back to business as usual. I should have just put a good used leupold M8 6X on all my critter getters and been done with it.

i found a sfp holdover marks can be used at for example a calibrated 24x its usable only at 24 12 and 6 but increments are divided by half for each so using clicks and half the calbrated x magnifaction the math isnt as complicated and it allows for pen tip hits because the object is not obscured by the reticle i tend towards precision on small objects i means i learned scope shooting with a pellet gun where precision is more important because a squirrels heart and lungs only cover 1.5 inches and wind drift is crazy on small weighted objects drift in wind with only a nudge of air. i miss with firearms too by 1/4 inches or less which i can attribute to small game hunting with airguns. SFP scopes are more complicated mathmatically but if the optics built well it offers more precision if your willing to do the headache math but once the math is absobed the brain can quckly make split decisions and be effective even more so than a ffp scope because you become more intrinsically knowledgeable of what any movement makes to the poi. long story short ffp is better but sfp has that lil gem to offer of shooting bugs at 100 yards

Where can i find a place to shoot freely like this, without owning the land? Anywhere in the country, i will drive there for vacation just to shoot. i'm so tired of shooting paper at shooting ranges. Anyone?

I hear that... I have like $1,500 in scopes that use mils but are on the wrong focal plane. If I had known ahead of time, I would have gotten 2 of them in the FFP and with mil adjustments. now i will likely sell them both and get something else.

I am in the process of converting a 91/30 Mosin/Nagant in an Archangel stock using a Rock Solid scope mount and cutting the barrel to maybe 24 inches for better barrel harmonics.

Damn, thats some nice shooting stud. I'm in the process of building a buget long range rifle. We can shoot out to about 600 yds. from the back deck here. I have a few round armor plate targets from 6"-16" that I'd like to use and I'm thinking of getting a Savage 10 PC. Would the SWFA fixed 10 power be enough.scope? Love, LOVE, the vids!!!!!
