This is an outstanding bit of content - essential viewing for anyone buying a scope in Airsoft. I learned a lot here and I started shooting with both firearms and replicas 13 years ago…
I installed this optic on a crossman 760 air rifle.I have now shot the riffle around 500 times during target/plinking practice, and the th-cam.com/users/postUgkxc4K63Fd5LglDMObu7-Bgapxp_ef0W8hE scope has done well.With this optic, I have neutralized around 30 pigeons that were invading one of my buildings.For my short range air rifle, I will continue to use this scope, but will be upgrading to a more powerful scope, when I buy a more powerful air rifle, in order to shoot at longer distance.For the money I have spent, this scope has truly been a great buy.
This video was/is hands down the best bit of advice for airsoft sniping I’ve ever come across and this cleared up so many things I’ve been having issues with 😅 keep the videos coming we can all benefit a lot from tips and tricks to become better players great video 🔥🔥🔥👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
More of this style of content please along with gameplay vids. No other major sniper channels are doing this and you present the information really clearly and articulately Ed, so think this could be a really cool new direction for the channel! Keep up the great work!
Funny you ended up having the same scope I do and swear by. It’s like looking thru the air that’s zoomed in… I love my Leupold! Best investment I’ve made in airsoft so far!
Did some range testing at twilight with 8 guys all with different scopes. The only scope that was able to still see BBs out to 80m was the Leupold. Call me a fanboy but there’s definitely something to them.
Thanks for taking the time and effort to put this video together, whilst i dont use a bolt action when playing airsoft I will be back to view it over and over again when I do decide to buy a sniper setup. Regarding LPVO’s i would welcome an instructional video from yourself as I have one mounted on my yet to be used MTW and would love to have it set up as best as can be so if you can find the time to put one together I for one would be grateful.
No worries and I’m glad it helped. An LPVO will work fine on a sniper although you probably won’t make use of the 1x on it. Set to 4 - 5 x you will be Stella.
As a new, UK-based player, I found this video extremely clear, informative and helpful - thank you. Please make similar guides for LPVOs and face/eye pro + ghillies! Specifically, what kind of goggles / face pro would you recommend for scoped weapons?
on my sr25 which I need to field as soon as i get the mags for it since the hicap barely works and it was barely used, I run a vortex crossfire II 2-7x scope. if it gets shot out, sent it to them and have it fixed/ replaced. i have yet to test it but its
Very informative, nice little deep dive into scopes. I hope you will be doing more content like this. Would love to see your gun setup and mybe a beginners/intermediate guide into boltactions. I will keep the whole zeroing aspect in mind when i try myself on bolt actions soon. Also im going to review my scope setup on my other guns.
Great video Ed, nice to see how other people set their stuff up. See if OW will lend you an ATN or Wulf4k, would like to see something similar with digital scopes :)
Does having a very clear scope help seeing those heavyweight BBs that tend to be darker in colour instead a perfect white, just wondering because I’ve got a relatively cheap scope and I can’t see them past 60 metres regardless of light or how much I adjust the eye relief of clean the lens
Excellent video! I've only been into airsoft the past couple of years, but I've been into real steel my whole life. I've always viewed Leupold as the gold standard for optics. I'm also a big fan of Bushnell Elite series and Nikon optics for quality mid range glass.
Some people would definitely agree with you. But eye relief is often confused with other things like the eye box and it’s also not always known that it is a range of distance rather than a specific distance
Fantastic video. I'm updating ALL my sniping gear for NAF 2023 and i'm interested in that clip on scope lever you are using. Do you have a preference with that handy device?
Hi, I watched your video and it was very exciting. We are a Chinese manufacturer specializing in sights/red dot sights/night vision devices. We currently have stable dealers in the UK Optic warehouse and have products sold in the UK. , I wonder if you are willing to try our riflescope and make a video for us. You can honestly give your real experience of using it and share it with your TH-cam fans. We look forward to getting your contact information.
I run a atn digi scope with a flip over thermal.. both bought from optics warehouse, over £2000 would i recommend optics warehouse? No i had questions with both and got the old he'll phone you tomorrow fob off, they like to sell but aftersales is crap in the end good old google n reseach helped me. It seems if you are youpuber/ticcock producer these companies will help all the way but mr nobody gets the old fob off.. so buyer beware, you might get a good price but thats where it ends.

Including a test on scope glass with 0.48 at 2.3j was really helpful too..great stuff.

Thanks bud. Yeah I’ll definitely try to do a few of these where I can
After all my years of hunting with a scoped rifle and knowing what i know.. this is the the best scope review i've ever seen.. Bloody well done Ed.. 👍
Thanks frank! Much appreciated. Look forward to seeing you soon! Here 🙃
Outstanding! Thanks for making this and the load out video - full of really useful insights and tips!
Glad it’s been helpful!
This is a fantastic video. Very well made and informative. I am sure this took a long time to make and it was worth it
Thanks ! Hopefully will be helpful to some people
Oh god, this was desperately needed- Nice work, mate
Hopefully it’s helped some people
Very thoughtful and well thought out. Great video!
I run a primary arms 1-6x sfp on my vfc avalon and a primary arms 1-8x ffp on my krytac lvoa

Very good review SG. From a Field Target shooter, Thanks for posting.
Thanks Wayne!
Great video! Good work!
this is great mate. the b roll shots are especially good. the focus sweeps are buttery ;)
Haha I had a bit of fun with the filming of all that
Thanx for sharing this informative video!

I think I will do. Most people have subbed to the channel for the gameplay so it would be a shame to not keep that end up as well. 🙂
The only time I used a scope on my fa mas was for spotting the enemy old school Airsofter 1992-2023 Retired. My scope was 4x32.
great video silly keep it up man
Thanks dude
Great video Ed, nice to see how other people set their stuff up. See if OW will lend you an ATN or Wulf4k, would like to see something similar with digital scopes :)
Oh how I can dream! Let’s hope they like this one
@@silly_ghillie Well if they don’t I’ll send you mine for a bit if you like :)
Good video, lots of good info for buyers
Good comparison!
Glad you think so!
You're a real expert at what you do. What kind of camera do you use for the rifle scope? What display any with helmet mount?
Thanks man. The camera is a Foxeer legend 4K and the head cam is a GoPro black 8
What eyepro do you wear? And what face pro?
Summer I wear camo paint and sawflys and in winter I use hero sharks and lonestar tactical face pro
@@silly_ghillie arent you worried about bbs breaking through the mesh goggles?
@@saltyrust2610 been playing 10 years with mesh. No issues so far. I’d stay away from the woven mesh but flat mesh like on herosharks is not so good
This looks SO fun
Great video, a LPVO video would be good 👍🏻
Thanks man
Super useful content. I’m terrible at setting my scope up and I find it super frustrating. Be following this when I sort my scope out again.
Glad it helped!
Ed, do you zero to a particular distance once you’ve set hop up or zero to highest point in flight path? Thanks
Hiding the model/price was a really good idea
This helps me out a lot think im going to get a crossfire with the warranty. Cheers. Also please do the lpvo review
You won’t be disappointed 🙂
@silly_ghillie for the lpvo have a look at the visionking optics i was surprised with mine i got with a second hand rif a while back
Does having a very clear scope help seeing those heavyweight BBs that tend to be darker in colour instead a perfect white, just wondering because I’ve got a relatively cheap scope and I can’t see them past 60 metres regardless of light or how much I adjust the eye relief of clean the lens
Jp, hands down on that vid!
Excellent video! I've only been into airsoft the past couple of years, but I've been into real steel my whole life. I've always viewed Leupold as the gold standard for optics. I'm also a big fan of Bushnell Elite series and Nikon optics for quality mid range glass.
Thanks man! That means a lot to me. Hopefully it can be of helpful to some people starting out 🙂
nice video, personally I think eye relief is most important for me. As with all head protections, low eye relief is really going to slow me down
Some people would definitely agree with you. But eye relief is often confused with other things like the eye box and it’s also not always known that it is a range of distance rather than a specific distance
is an acog style scope valuable for sniping?
Fantastic video. I'm updating ALL my sniping gear for NAF 2023 and i'm interested in that clip on scope lever you are using. Do you have a preference with that handy device?
Hey. Search: 1 x PAIR OF BREAKAWAY TACKLE NYLON COASTERS
@@silly_ghillie thanks! See you at NAF :)
is 2 leupold ? I haven't finished vid
Haha yes it is lol
How do you get them to fix on the rails
Would an objective lens diameter of 24mm be too small for an airsoft sniper?
Any reason you choose 32mm?
It would work fine but you would likely have a LPVO with that size. Is that what you want?
@@silly_ghillie was looking at the Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6x24. Something I could use on my SRS or MTW.
@@GamingHurricane great choice! You will love that scope and yes it will work fine on both. I used to use my strike eagle on my VSR as well.
Why is a bush talking to me about scopes????
I’m so much more than just a bush! I have ambitions to be a tree one day
@@silly_ghillie pursue your dream of being a tree 👍
Cuz u have the high ground
@@TheBlackOpsFeederyou underestimate to make my power!
Incroyable.
lpvo vid pls
Airsoft Nambu when?
Not sure what you mean
tm did it already. Casual lol
thank you
2 then 3.

Just buy an lvpo 1-4x

@@silly_ghillie the ones on swamp fox are pretty cheap and p well made. They give discounts to law enforcement too

Yes

Untuk scope 3-9x40 or 2.5-10x42 sebaiknya kita sebagai sniper menggunakan pembesaran berapa kali?
