    Yeah, all I shoot through mine is TULA. Probably what the problem is.

    Does that top cover hold zero very well?

    You know I haven't had much of an issue with it, but the day I took that pic was the first day I was trying to zero that optic in. It seems to do fine though. I have nothing to compare it to (like an RS regulate) so I'm not entirely sure. But it's pretty accurate at 75 yards.. after that the bullets start to go all over (again using Tula so there's that)

    Tull is non corrosive I believe. The tantal shoots 5.45 which is normally old Russian surplus. Corrosive

    Before I got this vortex I had a crap-tastic primary arms red dot on it. It seemed to hold zero just fine on that TWS mount. That being said, TWS has a gen 3 mount out that you can remove using a takedown pin. I would prefer that over this one which only pivots/swivels up and down. Makes cleaning a little more clumsy.

    You would know really quick if it was corrosive. You would have to clean With an ammonia-based product to neutralize the corrosive properties. If not within a day or two and see nothing through the barrel

    Tula is cheap and semi reliable but some my guns don’t like it one bit, especially my Kel-Tec RFB

    When I shoot the Tula it doesn’t seem like there’s enough recoil and therefor I constantly jam. Being an RFB it’s not always easy clearing a jam either since it’s a bull pup and it has the forward eject chute. However Federal NATO rounds I almost have no issue with them unless I shoot a crap.

    Every day coming to work I pass a few new construction sights and they've got these huge sculpted mountains of top soil all packed down and taunting me to come and play. Is this a natural urge? And at what cost if I get busted?

    Is anyone in the area of 901 W 9th St, Russellville, KY? I’m looking to purchase a truck from a dealer and live in Az. Was hoping someone could check it out for me.

    Definitely natural. I’ve done this a few places. Usually ok as long as you don’t damage/disturb any of the equipment or landscape.
