Reliability won't be an issue. My SB Polar has only 1 rotation of elevation but its 9.9 mil I believe. But I don't use it to dial, its my low light setup so I haven't moved it since resetting zero at 100 yards. Hypothetically speaking, which I have never shot that far, on my ballistic sheet...
I do it because I enjoy it and yes it does save me some money. I reload for 3 - 308's and I get to load them the way I want them. 1 of the Rem 700's the boys have was very picky. So all the factory ammo I was buying is nothing more that Range playing around ammo. Thats the one factor that no...
Not a lite, but a CTR. I used UM rings (med I think due to heavier barrel contour). I have a Trijicon credo 3-15x50 on it. You could probe use lows with a sporter barrel.
Or my Lite has a Mountain tactical rail on it to give me options. I went with a 0 moa base with Vortex Precision match...
Mine is a 3-18x56 with #4 illuminated dot. For the $$, it's a very nice optic. Couple things I noticed. The objective knob is tight as well as the paralex knob. Which could be a good thing so it isn't easily bumped or changed. They are slightly heavy, I have mine on my Browning Abolt II...
Buddy of mine has an NSX and if you don't dial, save the $$$. Also, if you're not dialing, then glass trumps all, get the Klassik or Accupoint depending on your budget. If you are wanting to dial, then the reliability of the Nightforce is hard to beat.
These 2 guys must shoot at my local range, because I swear the shite that comes out these younger guys mouth at my range while shooting and sighting in their rifles is comical. The local guys here try to make videos while shooting and the dumbasses can't even describe their own gun much less...
I have had both, still have the accupoint but sold the Klassik to get a Schmidt bender Polar. All things said, the Klassik is better in low light, clarity but ............ cost more and does weigh more. Really depends on what exactly you want.
Just bought this one for mine. Like it so far and does have illuminated dot for low light shooting.

I picked one up for my CVA 350 legend. Needed an optic that could get me pass legal shooting time here in Louisiana. mine has the #4 reticle with illiminated dot. The illumination is great for low light. I've only used it for a short time so far, but seems like a great optic for the money. I...
Depends on what your doing, hunting or target?
I picked up 5 boxes of rem corlocks a while back for just playing around with my Tikka 308. Out of the 100, I have 89 left and they are on their 6th firing. Simple R-P Remington brass, i anneal every time and FL size every time. And I load the...
Depends on what you want.
I used a browning Abolt II medallion 7mag for about 30 years with just simple dove tail mounts held with 4 screws and not one time did I have an issue. Being it was offered for the tikka, I picked up the rail and set my 308 up for low light with the Polar.
Since...
Yep, about the same as me. 7 mag ammo was easy to find but for my conditions, it was way overkill so picked up a tikka 308. But that medallion still shoots tiny clusters over 30 years later.
The Abolt and Abolt II were very nice rifles. They dropped the ball with the abolt 3 and tried to resurrect it back with the xbolt.
The problem is aftermarket parts or lack there of. People like to tinker with their stuff dont like these rifles due to aftermarket availability. I know back in...
Yes, yes they are in low light. Get the klassik 2.5-10x56 with #4 illuminated dot for your hunting conditions. I had one but upgraded to the Polar T96 (96% light transmission) series by Schmidt Bender. However the Polar is more $$ but is the best low light optic there.
I hunt south Louisiana in...
I have a Abolt II Medallion in 7mag with the Boss that I got when back in the early 90's. Blued finish with beautiful wood stock. It is still the queen of my safe. I was going to go that route and get the boss system taken off and have it barrelled. I like the face the bottom metal is flush but...
I have a SB polar, trijicon Accupoint 2.5-10x56, and had a 2.5-10x56 klassik. For low light, the klassik is better but is heavier that the trijicon. But the illumination on the trijicon doesn't need batteries or to be turned off. The Polar is the best but will be above your price point.
The...
