I like the UltraDot Matchdot. You can change the MOA of the dots 2,4,6,8 depending on what you are shooting.

It appears that the people who previously voted for change are figuring out that change is not always good. The elected officials need to figure out that we can take them out of office as well as we put them in. I hope that this is the first sign that the American people are taking their country bac...

I also don't have the knowledge that Bullseye does but I can say that I was having stovepipe issues and did the mag mod and installed a VQ extractor at the same time and my problem is gone. I can't say which one did it since they were done at the same time.

I still have the full blown eastern NC accent. I went to California on business a couple of years ago and they thought I was faking my accent :lol:
