it is cheaper hereYes still criterion. Looks like they reamed gas port to enlarge it. Shop didn't break it in that I know of.

Amazon has the viper for $769 with the FFP and MRAD. Any reason I shouldn't just scoop that up? EbR-2c. Not 7c
That's odd because Amazon has it through Europtic!? You really feel the EP5 is better not just a better value?it is cheaper here

i do not like nether 2C/2D reticle as it has no dot in the center. when chasing bullet holes it makes it a bit more annoying, but not critical.
up to you, really. it is a good scope, i have one, but i think the arken ep5 is better, but it is not on sale now which makes it stupid to pay the full $565 for it.
it seems they are trying to push the old sh4 scopes now, priced at $299.

if you`re going to buy a nightforce later anyway - it can be better choice of losing less money than a viper that you will not use anymore. so you decide.
it is a highly subjective topic. i can tell what i think, but it is my own opinion.That's odd because Amazon has it through Europtic!? You really feel the EP5 is better not just a better value?
I have viper IIs in 1-6, 3-15, and 5-25. I like them, and can usually find decent dealsRifle is coming home today. I've been slacking on optic. For under $1000 I'm looking at vortex viper.
The 5-25 for $669 seems like a good price. That damn EP5 has me thinking now though! I like the 1-10 swapfox on my ar-15 so if I don't like this scope it's just gonna sit in a box for a while.I have viper IIs in 1-6, 3-15, and 5-25. I like them, and can usually find decent deals
if i can give one advice - it is easier to move scopes around and re-zero it again and again than to have a scope in the box and never use it.The 5-25 for $669 seems like a good price.

It's already assembled and I grabbed a few pmags that seem to work. I tried to do my research and went with Aero/BA stuff except the barrel.AR10 uppers/lowers do not share the same universal cross-brand compatibility, nor do they all use the exact same type magazine. Choose wisely.
They didn’t give you anything to make up for it?View attachment 658816
Nothing fancy but she's home. Actually lighter than I thought it'd be. The only problem is they gave my bag to someone else!? I dropped it off with a small pitbull bag or whatever and a little lock. Nope not there anymore...
Thats definitely a good price, Ive been seeing more deels on them recently, im expecting probably gen III soon?The 5-25 for $669 seems like a good price. That damn EP5 has me thinking now though!

so, i was just looking at eurooptic for something completely different i needed and noticed this tenmile scopes sale.View attachment 658816

He offered me a very similar bag. I said I'm gonna go home and make sure I'm not crazy. Turns out I wasn't crazy and they probably gave my bag and lock to whoever owns the similar bag there...They didn’t give you anything to make up for it?
i really think it is the scope you need:He offered me a very similar bag. I said I'm gonna go home and make sure I'm not crazy. Turns out I wasn't crazy and they probably gave my bag and lock to whoever owns the similar bag there...
I was looking at trijicom when shopping for my last scope. I think my swampfox arrowhead might be SFP.i really think it is the scope you need:
Trijicon Tenmile HX 3-18x50 SFP w/ MRAD Center Dot (Red/Green Illumination), 30mm, Satin Black Riflescope 3000009
FREE SHIPPING on Trijicon Tenmile HX 3-18x50 SFP w/ MRAD Center Dot (Red/Green Illumination), 30mm, Satin Black Riflescope 3000009www.eurooptic.com
of course it is an SFP. but, for the AR10 it is actually a benefit, as you will have proper reticle at both 3x and 18x. great discount at this price, and good magnification.
a good scope, at $739 from $1800 retail. this is a real good glass.
no one will say an ill word about a tenmile, it is a real good stuff. if i would have anything to put a 3-18x on, i would get one.I was looking at trijicom when shopping for my last scope.
Pinch some more pennies and get the FFP if you go that route.I was looking at trijicom when shopping for my last scope. I think my swampfox arrowhead might be SFP.
Is FFP preferred because the adjustments stay the same?Pinch some more pennies and get the FFP if you go that route.
it is not 'preferred' at all, it depends upon application.Is FFP preferred because the adjustments stay the same?
I prefer it because I don’t want to think about if I’m at the right magnification for the reticle to be right.Is FFP preferred because the adjustments stay the same?
Which oooooone?The Trijicon will be here by the end of the week.
