  2. I don’t use the optic often like Once a year. Should I take battery out OR leave it in the optic Device. Is leaving the battery out of the optic help with the longevity of the optic lifespan?
    Thank you..

  3. You just got a new subscriber love your videos! I’m deciding between the Stryker and the Credo, both are around $800. Razor is a little north of what I want to spend. If I plan on setting up an offset RDS in the future which way would you go? Is the Steiner 1-4 worth it at $650 or is it worth the up grade to the Stryker/ Credo. Thanks!

  4. All of Burris’s scopes lack daylight brightness I’ve noticed. When I got my xtr2 I was disappointed in the illumination. A scope that cost almost a grand at that time I expected better.

  5. I wish these were available in a 1-4.5 power with a simple post reticle and MOA dials to support Service Rifle Competition and easy transaction from detachable carry handle sight set for 300 meter zero and BDC function. I now have an Athlon 4.5 and find its reticle is not at all conductive to an understanding for a consistent sight picture. That's not good when the whole idea is a high X-Count.

  6. Unexpectedly good post. Here's my complaint with all, none have the option of a post reticle. I understand the appeal of reticles which have ranging, and bullet drop compensation functions, but the post reticle coupled with MOA dials is supreme for a distraction free sight picture which assures a exacting sight picture to realize

  7. So, why the Trijicon Credo HX over the FFP model? The FFP Mil model has a much more useable reticle for mid-range work. The MSRP is around $1300, with street price closer to $1k. So, it definitely fits into that criteria

  8. One of the seals came loose on my RT-6 and I had to send it back to the manufacturer, it is decent glass though. I like the reticle also. The brutal recoil of the 5.56 cartridge broke it loose after less than ten rounds. That is sarcasm just in case you did not pick up on that. I would still reccomend it, it seems to be ok now.

  9. What do you guys use to level the scopes in the mounts/rifles? Maybe a link for the tools used or a video for the process? I'll buy from your link or help support a video showing the process.

  10. Have you had any experience with the credo with the green dot. Same hunter BDC. Just wondering if you knew if that shows up daylight bright. Thanks for your video you guys do a really good job.
