    Why are people flaming him in the comments? This video is evidently geared towards shooters who are new to the AR world and have no idea how to zero an optic. I just purchased my first AR & red dot & I found the video very educational!

    Getting ready to take a 1-8 lpvo out and zero. I have been running a 36 yard zero but never really have shot past 100 yards, nowhere to shoot out here, bought the lpvo for another build and I really want to shoot some distance, but at 66 yrs old this is all new to me as far as optics, we didn't have this in the army back 45 yrs ago. Thank you for making this some understandable!! Love your clips, your honesty and your ability to communicate clearly! Love to you man!

    • @icebox829
      @icebox829 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Not sure about the 1-8 but the 1-6 has ranging hashes for yards based on an 18inch shoulder width. Not dissimilar to the Trijicon RCO acog that the marines use as standard issue. A very cool feature to see on an affordable optic. Can’t wait to sight mine in next week

    Very well explained. I just ordered the 3x magnifier to use behind my Predator V1 with the 45 degree offset sights on one rifle and I also have the Predator V2 on another rifle using the 45 degree offset mount. I have not had any problems with any of the products from Tacticon and will continue to support a Veteran owned company as I am also a Veteran. Keep up the great work Nolan.

    @guy9146 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great video... One thing to mention. While I would also recommend zeroing your rifle with max magnification. With second focal plain you can still zero at any magnification you want as your zero wont change. Only your holds will change when not fully magnified. None the less. good video.

  • @LatidosAcusticos
    @LatidosAcusticos 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I just got the Falcon v2 1-4x24mm lpvo and it's amazing. I'll admit I was a bit skeptical because of the price but let me tell you... It's an awesome optic that should cost more. Precise, great built quality and comes with everything you need to get it in your rifle.
    Thanks for the video, just what I was looking for.

    • @TacticonArmament
      @TacticonArmament  หลายเดือนก่อน

      50 yard zero would be fine, then use the holdovers in the etched reticle.

    I use two zeros the 50/200 and 25/300. The formula I use is bottom out the elevation and windage. At 25 yards three inches equals 1MOA once I get that zero, I have the drop all set 7 inches down is 50 yards 8 inches down on elevation is 100 yards.

    Confused. I purchased discovery second focal plane scope and I thought I made a mistake not purchasing a first vocal plane scope because I’m going to be using my rifle for long-distance target shooting up to 300 yards maybe a little bit more.
    I was speaking to Hunter who knows some professional target shooters and some ex snipers who prefer second focal playing over first vocal plane, which surprised me. What’s your opinion?

    This may seem like an odd question but I’ve never used the pop up dials on any kind of optic. Do you have to worry about them getting messed up at all or do you mark them to remember where your zero is?

    • @seansmith3852
      @seansmith3852 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @ethandyer2078
      Hey Man,
      Once you get your rifle scope zeroed, there will be a small Allen screw on the side of the turret (dial) that you unscrew. This will allow you to lift the turret (dial) up freely and spin it around to the “Zero” number aligns with the line or hash mark on the scope body at the base of the dial.
      This way your “Zero” will read at zero on the numbers on each of your turrets (dials).
      Remember to tighten (snug) up the Allen Screws once they are aligned and in the zero position.
      Even if they get turned, you simply then just turn your dials back to the zero number and that is back to “zero” again.
      I hope that I was able to explain this well enough to understand and that it helps.
      Take care and have a
      Happy Range Day !
