Damn, I can't even afford to look at a scope like this let alone buy one! Rob, you've got one hell of a setup and I always look forward to your videos!...........PS: I'll bet Santa brought it!!
I had a 5-25 that was a great scope very good glass and you can get at a decent price. I only sold to fund a 7-35 atacr when I decided to switch to mil scope. The Leupold was slightly brighter in my opinion. Iv had several Leupold scopes that were excellent and I really like the locking turret.
I was a big fan of the turrets when shopping around. Also was a big fan of the simple pr2 reticle. More in dept thoughts to come as I get more acquainted with the optic.
@@Ace-wu4zm I felt that my 5-25 Leupold was a little brighter than my night force 7-35. Both excellent scopes. For the money the Leupold is great. Want a 3.6 to 18 mark 5 but would definitely buy another mark 5 in the 5-25 or 7-35. Retical is great and they have the locking top turret and have excellent clarity and bright at low light. I only sold my 5-25 because I was switching everything to mil.
I am new to long range so I am still trying to learn.I am a handgun guy.I have shot competitively all over the east coast for about 8 years.Anyway I hope you can help me out.I have looked everywhere on how to zero this scope and there isn't anything specifically about it.I have this scope and I have had it for 10 months.It is on my new tikka t3x tac a1.I am already to go I just am not sure how to sight in this scope initially. So basically I take a target put it out to how many yards,you never specified?. You look through the barrel and move your elevation turrets until it lines up with the center of your bullseye on your target.After that you go to your windage turrets and move them until they are lined up as well.The setting my zero thing I'm confused by.Can you think of a simplified way of describing setting your zero.I really could use your help.Does everything else I said sound about right? Thank you so much!.Great videos! I am talking about taking the cap off of the elevation turrets.How do you actually set it after you sight your rifle in.Once I catch on I will do good afterwards.
@@Hades16899 it will only let u go down about 4 clicks past zero. If you need to go down further. Loosen your cap and set it away from the zero say at 6 mil or moa then it will let you go down.
It also has a min power of 7, so for long range shooting you often are not going to need less than 7 power anyway. Why not have 35 power for the most accurate point of aim when shooting groups?
This is where I think alot of people are wrong, sure you probably never need 35 power to shoot but if you have a scope that can go to 35 then when you use 20x to shoot at 1000 you will have much better focusing, field of view, and removing parallax than if you had a 4-20x scope shooting at 20x. So seems like haters trying to justify their reasons for by a 20x vs spending another 200 for the 35x lol. Plus I love shooting my nf at 32x at 100 for tiny groups
@@Forumrida38621 yes, I have a 20 power scope and a bunch of 24 and 25x optics. With the small price difference to upgrade to 35x it was a simple decision for me. I likely won't shoot at max powder other than for groups.
