Kipp, I’d recommend the vortex razor gen 1 85mm objective lens with a 23x Ler eyepiece. The kowa 882sv with a ler eyepiece.

I prefer as much magnification as possible with an equal amount of clarity. I do have a hard time holding point of aim when I get down to 30x but sometimes it’s necessary.
I think finding the correct mirage at distance with the spotting scope is beneficial.
Mirage is just hard to shoot in and experience seems to be the roughest but most effective teacher -

Mr. Richard, I’m glad you found the culprit! I hate that can happen to you at times because it would definitely cause an issue.

I’d say on first relay it should be as clear as it’s going to get. Might be worth adjusting your scope every match to get it as clear as possible. Mr. Richard, do you adjust the eyepiece to get your crosshairs crisp? Mine had somehow gotten out of focus, I guess the lock ring came loose and it was fuzzy at 100yds so I had to readjust and then loc…[Read more]

It seems like there’s always a little something going on down range to make you shoot one out the right, left, down, up. Just curious if you like to watch a flag? Mirage? Maybe just chase the spotter? For me, during the match, I noticed the 2nd flag on the right would droop and if I didn’t come in at least a ring it would shoot it up wind. Luc…[Read more]

March 8-80 here as well. If I can see well with 80x I’ll shoot it, I was somewhere around 50x on the last relay. I generally shoot the max amount of power that the mirage allows, it doesn’t have to be a perfect sight picture but I do need to be able to have a decent point of aim.
I wonder if there’s a way you could affix a mirage shield to your…[Read more] -

Noah and I had a great time shooting Saturday and it was great seeing you back Mr. Richard and as the day went on you improved your scores. It was great seeing Jessie back after shoulder surgery, hoping he gets healed up completely and can be back on a regular basis. I did shoot my personal best of 50 x’s and couldn’t be happier with how my rif…[Read more]

Mr. Richard, I missed you being there at the match, you’re a staple of Reese bottom. I’m praying that your daughter has a quick recovery and stays well.
Johnathon was right on my heels the whole time and he had a hammer of a rifle too. Unfortunately, mid range seems to be getting to the point where you can’t drop a point and you’ve got to have a…[Read more] -
