My first 6.5mm Grendel Project - after 3 .223 Rem AR-15s

Looks to be the ERA-TAC one-piece mount with their Angle Cosine Indicator (ACI). Kohoki can correct me if I am wrong. http://era-tac.de/index.php/en/produ...e-piece-mounts.

The PRI iron sight set I orderedLINK to CIP Website

CIP Technical Datasheet

And Hornady had their 123 grs. A-Max ammunition for a C.I.P. listing test in Mellrichstadt - Germany a few weeks ago. That ammo is CIP listed now and can be purchased at every shop which sells Hornady Ammo.

Hi there

due to deadly dullness while I am waiting for my Schmidt and Bender Scope, I spent some time ordering really nice equipment from TAB Gear. A custom made SAS-R cover for the B&T moderator as well as a bean bag for the stock (I am a bipod shooter).

Wunderbar!! Beste wunchen fur dein neue kinder! lolz

Guys, that scope is such a freaking awesome piece of hardware!

Pros:
crystal clear view,
razor sharp reticle,
due to short length perfect fit for AR-15 systems
it comes with TT lens covers
MTC (more tactile clicks every mil) dials
double turn feature

Cons:
Price

And the best is:
Last year, when I decided to buy the scope, I talked to an Recknagel /ERA TAC engineer about an offset mount for the illuminated Schmidt & Bender Ultra Short which accommodates the usage on all AR-15 upper receivers. The mount has to be special because of the short tubes in front and back of the elevation adjustment turret. The engineer said that it could take some days...I almost forgot that but not the Recknagel guy. I received that new offset mount today!

I will switch the T1001-267A block mount to the offset mount T1001-298A.

Holy Cow. That scope has more dials than my odl stereo receiver from the 80's. lol

[Kohoki]

Yes, you're right! But it rocks!

The material between the scope rings and the scope is from a latex glove, I use to cut two fingers off one of these unpowdered protection glowes and swipe them over the objective and ocular lens to prevent direct contact between rings and scope.

Benefit: The scope can be dismounted without any marks of installation, furthermore it behaives like glue. I cut the overlap with a razor blade.

i spent way too much time staring at those pics. that scope is mesmerizing.

That scope cost more than the three cars I had in the 80's combined. While one of those cars was from the height of the 8-track era, it only had a Philco AM radio. lol

I have to admit, I exaggerated a little bit with that scope setup, but I try to act regarding to this:
