What state(s) do you hunt big game in most often? I don't really hunt big game....If I did, it would be preferrably Montana. What is your primary long range hunting cartridge? .308 -------------------------------------- Regarding your primary long range hunting cartridge choice above: Do...

Oh, okay....I understand now. I am running it down too low. I'll turn it up to 18X and adjust the ocular from there. I didn't realize that the side focus wouldn't do much at lower power. Thanks for the help Jon! :) Sean

Ah-ha.....you posted just as I was posting my last reply. Thanks. That is very useful info. I have the BC caps and it doesn't seem like it will rotate unless I actually turn it myself. Thanks for the help. Sean

Thanks very much for both responses! I understand what you are saying regarding focusing the cross wires and how to understand parallax, but.... I don't seem to have a narrow locking ring or any set screws I could detect (unless they are underneath the rubber ring over the moving eyepiece)...

I'm following you now....the eyepiece is for focusing the crosshairs. I don't understand what you mean by "tighten the ring". Is there a set screw or something once I focus the cross hairs that needs to be tightened? Thanks, Sean

My apologies in advance for the stupid question but I'm new to variable power optics and just bought my first one. My experience with scopes is limited to cheap fixed 4X Bushnells on rifles out to 300 yards. I decided to spend a decent amount of money (for me), justifying it by saying this...

And please don't misunderstand me....I know the IOR is a much better scope than the Falcon, I was just saying I didn't realize there was any other FFP choices for that price other than Horus Hawk with a 1 year warranty. Apprently, Falcon Menace has a 5 year. As it is, I spent about twice what...

I found it extremely useful. I wish I'd seen it earlier....might have ended up with this over the IOR. As it was, when I bought, I thought IOR was the only game in town with matching mil turrets with a mil reticle and FFP for under $1500 that had better than 10X magnification. The only other...

I missed it by a day, huh? Shoot. I would've spent another $200 to get the latest gen. Oh well, it's really nice of you to hold some back in case of warranty issues. Shows a real commitment to your customers. Thanks for all your help Scott. Sean

No worries. If it turns out to be a bad choice, it's my fault....I made the decision. :D Oh, and thanks for the info on the zero stops.....shouldn't be a big issue for me either, just wondered. Take care, Sean

Quick question (I see no mention of it on IOR's site or at Liberty Optics)... Does the FFP 3-18x42mm come with zero stops? Just wondering. Sean

Jon A, Oddly enough your glowing report of how much you like the IOR except for it breaking is a large part of why I went ahead and bought Scott's refurb. I hope I'm as impressed as you (I'm sure I will be). Thanks for the detailed write ups. Sean

Thanks for the info guys....anyone know price range? Sean
