I had the exact opposite problem. My FX mag wouldn't fit but the Carm fit no problem. I didi what the others suggested and pulled the barrel forward, slide the magazine in and push the barrel back to just slightly snug and no issues since. Took about 5min.
This is really useful Teber, thanks! Would you say the hold over marks are usable at 2x? I ask because i'm zeroed at 25 yards but from 35-50 yards I need to use hold overs due to my limit of 495 FPS. It looks like they might be useable to like you said, a little hard to tell from the picture.
Thanks JungleShooter, i'll take a look at scopes with 3-fold magnification and even though your Scopes Tables don't have what i'm looking for, they have definitely be a treasure trove of information!
I definitely need holdovers at or around 3x as the bullet drop is quite significant when you are limited to 495fps. I'll definitely take a look at the FFP LPVO, thanks!
That's pretty much the conclusion I came to as well. Unfortunately i'm an outlier and FFP scopes were just not designed for my use case which is understandable. They do however, work perfectly for the users it was designed for which is the majority and totally understandable.
I'm wondering if anyone knows of a FFP scope that has a "usable" reticle at low magnification? I currently have a SFP 2.5-15 scope and most of the time i'm shooting between 15-35 yards so I have the magnification down to 2.5x but sometimes up to 10x. My PCP is limited to 495 FPS so while more...
I just ordered a tank from him and didn't receive a handle or the feet. Didn't see a note in the box (or maybe I missed it) but sent him a message and awaiting a reply.
@leon83, I was looking at that Vortex and it's definitely a contender. I've actually been thinking of removing having an MRAD reticle from one of my criteria as going with MOA really seems to open up the options. If I do that, you guys have any new good options for me?
@yo, are you able to post a direct link to the one on Amazon? I tried to search it earlier when you recommended it but I can't get it to show up for some reason. Also, in your opinion, you think that's a better scope than the Hawke Frontier?
@dairyboy there were quite a few times I thought I found a good alternative but either no Mil version, won't focus down far enough or no illuminated reticle ect. @yo, will take a look at the Vector version.
Yes, that one was an excellent choice @lbc_PSI and one I looked at before but as you mentioned @Yo, Parallax focus at 20 yards won't work too well for my short range shooting unfortunately.
