    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    This is going to be my first RS1.2 so no experience with it on my Tikka yet, but interesting to hear that. I was going to try the UM Low Tikka rings but now you have me thinking I may need to go with Medium. That said, my Tikka's a T3, not a T3x, so it has the smaller ejection port. Not sure if...

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    Just spoke with Maven, to upgrade to the package. They confirmed a few things. They encourage us to use Active Junky, they said that's why companies sign up for affiliate programs. They also said they got 200 scopes in this shipment and another shipment of 300 in early November.

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    I think @sndmn11 you're thinking of programs like Govx or Expert Voice where there are requirements to join. For things like Honey and Active Junky, where you don't have to be I find it very hard to believe that companies would NOT want the word of mouth for more users. In fact there's an...

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    Holy Fudd I thought you meant it's listed as out of stock, but the actual page for that particular riflescope (both MIL and MOA) is GONE. No more RS 1.2???

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    Thanks--crossed the ether as I figured that out. I already pulled the trigger (no pun) and snagged one, will let you know if the Paypal cash back winds up being more than 4%, who knows! I never thought I'd see the day where we're all compelled to behave like shopaholic moms on Black Friday to...

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    Hey @gtriple what's the active junky code I should be using on Maven? [EDIT]--nevermind, it's a cash back site. I use Paypal Honey which also seems to have cash back, just not sure how much yet, tells me a range of 1%-6% cash back at Maven.

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    FYI everyone the RS1.2 2.5-15 - 44 is available in Black at the moment. Not sure how long it will be there, got the email yesterday and pulled the trigger this morning.

    Scope mounting to maintain zero

    I figured I'd get that backwards. Thanks for catching that.

    Scope mounting to maintain zero

    Easy cleaning is my hope! IIRC Form has also mentioned that unlike blue loctite it does not rely on exposure to air to cure.

    Scope mounting to maintain zero

    That's interesting. I had no idea about nail polish! Sure enough a quick Google search indicates that both "solvent" based and water based nail polishes exist. Not sure which one I reclaimed* from my daughter but I'll have to check. I could have used my wife's oil based paint pens, but I felt...

    Oil based. If you enlarge UM's paint pen image it says oil based.

    Left Hand 223 Options

    Can anyone confirm whether the Winchester XPR inlet is different than the model 70? I've looked around, and I haven't been able to find a definitive answer, but I would think the answer is yes, given different safeties and bolt. But worth confirming, because IF the two inlets are the same, the...

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    @Formidilosus where do you place Trijicon scopes for torque spec? "good scopes with thick tubes" or with the latter bunch. Or does it depend on model?

    According to the Leupold website subtension PDF, it looks like the illuminated version has a .07 MIL "Center aperture" https://www.leupold.com/media/binaryanvil/reticle/Illum._TMR.pdf

    Leupold Mark 4 HD 6-24x52…drop test

    Would a dab of nail polish / paint pen a la Form work on these set screws? I'm assuming all turret components are metal, with no plastic to interact with any degreaser?

    What rifle is missing stock options?

    I suspect Stockys is all hands trying to meet the orders for the current Rokstok inlets and we won't hear about additional inlets for a while, until they get ahead.

    Painless load development (mine)

    Apologies if I missed this in the thread, but I'm trying to pick one expanding mandrel per caliber to set my neck tension, and not fiddle with that during the reloading process. What would the recommendation be for consistent neck tension? In my 270 I've been running a -.002, or .275, mandrel...
