To each their own... or shame on you...

I had to look it up. Sub 6lbs in a 308 semi is impressive, would make a nice hunting platform. The POF Rogue is a really sweet looking rifle....

They beat Ruger to the punch by 3 or 4 years. I ve got the Revolution piston version, it's excellent.
(bottom rifle with the can- changed the MFT stock out though)

as long as the mount isn't angled

Angled, as in some of them are manufactured at an angle?

 

[asiparks]

If you're shooting at extreme long distance, your scope might not have enough dial-able elevation, so you can bu mounts or bases that are angled up, usually 20 MOA.
(edit to add, my purchase was accidental)

Copy that. Thank you

Is it the picture and the paint job? Or is the handguard on the Revolution part of the upper receiver?

 

[asiparks]

Almost- the hand guard has an extension at the back that extends all the way back to the charging handle, it fits over the regular receiver toprail, locks to the barrel nut and provides a full length rock solid base to stick stuff on...BUT... it is 1/4 to 3/8 " higher than a regular rail which bugs some people. Understandable if you already have a favorite optic/mount and you have to adjust your cheek weld or buy a shorter mount....

As long as it's not a backwards MBUIS set, I'm not gonna judge

 

[Hueco]

I wouldn't judge too hard. I moved this scope from a long range AR to my NRL rig and ran the cantilever while waiting for rings to get delivered. How 'bout that height over bore?



I'm also one that mounts my AR red dots as close to my eye as possible, as opposed to as far out on the receiver, for cross eye dominance reasons.

I'd hope that no one dicks me over for a choice I made that makes shooting more practical for me. The way I see it, whatever helps you make your hits, go for it - it's your gun.

 

[Knobgoblin]

Good job being cool about it. If it was one of my kids, I'd probably spend more time harping on his poor stance, lack of situational awareness, and wasting ammo.
Lol

 

[Stomper]

Because backwards looks stupid.

Yeahbutt, you can see we're you've been and shoot back in time, maybe even save all the lil' chil'ren!

 

[Richo877]

To each his own...
I done it backerds before. If he can make it work, it's not interfering with performance, and it's more comfortable, let it be...

 

[Aero Denezol]

If he can shoot proficiently with that set-up, then it's all good.

IMO what is embarrassing and awkward is not a backward scope mount.. but rather those people who spend a fortune on "the best" gear and can't even get onto a pie plate at 50 yards - from the bench.

 

[Member 53328]

Just makes one look incompetent. The same as installing iron sights on backwards. Lol.

I wish my .308 was that light! No joke mine is probably 8+ it's a heavyhoe

 

[MatthewDB]

I guess I'll look incompetent too. I tried rings, but found the eye relief too much, so I bought a cantilever and stuck it on backwards. I went with a high lift because I knew it would put the scope over the charging handle.

I'll probably look for another scope at some point, but it is one that I already had and is a decent scope.

I was at Browns Camp (naturally), sighting in a scope. Like in this picture, the rings weren't centered around the torrents. It was mounted for eye relief. The helpful guy next to me said, I had the scope mounted wrong because the rings aren't centered.

Personally, I think it's like coleslaw. As long as it works and the scope isn't backwards. There's not just one way to make it.

Haha that falls in line with BUIS being installed backwards. But it's still stupid.

Agree to disagree...

There's only one way to do coleslaw and KFC has it locked down...

KFC......I just threw up in my mouth a little.
