    Still fighting with my new stoeger m3000. Having trouble cycling. I've polished the carrier and cleaned, removed grease. Going to try some heavier loads next

    Yes Sir if I could have found an optic I wanted from them for 308 I’d have bought it also I’ve not been disappointed with any of their optics

    Yup, it works the way they say it would. It was nice to see a clear reticle for a change.

    @Casper66 turned me onto to Swampfox. I now have a Sentinel on the 43x, a Kingslayer on the EPC-9, a Liberator on the MCK, and a Blade on my 300BLK. I will eventually get at least 1 more Blade to out on the EPC-9 and maybe one for the 17 Designs folder.

    Always smart to have spares laying around! Especially with how cheap LPKs are.

    If anyone needs 6.5CM this is one of the better prices I've seen lately. The ELD had been around $2 a round or more

    Anybody know what is different about the swampfox that makes it work well for astigmatism?

    Not hating or doubting, just genuinely curious for future reference because I recently got my first red dot (vortex venom) and with my astigmatism the 3moa dot looks more like 6 or 10moa. It was kinda funny because I didn't even realize it until I took a picture of the sight picture to send my buddy and was like holy crap that dot looks way smaller in the photo.

    The blade is a prism optic totally different reticle and lighting than a traditional red dot style optic where the led is projected into the lens.

    Prisim typically came in magnified versions only 3x 3x 6x etc there were very few if any 1x versions available.

    Upside good for Astigmatism downside is unlike a red dot you do have to deal with eye relief and eye box. This is more pronounced on magnified prism like the Vortex burris etc but the swampfox 1x has a pretty generous eye relief from what I've read and heard.

    It is very easy, for me, to shoot with both eyes open which I prefer
