    Would love to see you compare LPVOs. I think a shootout between 5 or 6 budget (3-500 USD) models would be a very popular video.
    I know youre usually focused on PRS stuff, but there's nobody out there doing a good job on LPVO comparisons. You would have the market cornered.

    your optic reviews specifically are very well done, the way you show practical things in real life rather than a target on a QD range is great. all your videos are very well done keep up the great work.

    I have one of these scopes mounted on a Rem 700 long range 26 heavy barrel chambered in 6.5 creedmoor and it does everything I need it to do. I shoot 1k yard on a regular. I dont own any really expensive scopes. Ive shot with other peoples vortex and nightforce scopes and I just cant justify spending 2k+ on a scope. I can usually ahoot under 1 MOA at 1k with my rifles. I do have mueller 8-32x44 on my other 3 1k yard guns but I personally like the Discovery scope better. It does take a little getting used to figuring math in mrad instead of moa.

    Hey brother, nice and complete video👍 Like you I wondered why they they inc included hi rings?
    Hey just wondering, from the video side shots, it looks like you have more of a mouth weld than a cheek weld on the rifle. With adjustable comb height do you need to raise this or is this just a video tricking me? As a former sniper I know that the cheek weld is so critically important, you probably do too........ Just wondering.

    • @EpikArms
      @EpikArms  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      So having the optic this high up doesn't negatively affect anything (other than looking odd) provided you get a good cheek weld this would be fine. I've asked them to include medium rings and the ones they proposed weren't good quality like the ones included. So I sticked with the high ring option. Now, much later on they have the medium height precision rings that I have on the website. Thanks for watching

    I bought a Discovery Optics Compact Riflescope HD FFP 3-12X44SFIR with Illuminated Etched Glass. The first time out while zeroing, it's parallax (Focus) would go out of adjustment on every shot. This is on an AR so recoil should not be an issue. I have contacted on their website as well as their U.S. customer support. This was Oct. 2. Out of the 3 different email addresses they list, only one replied. On the 5th they responded and asked what gnu I was using and suggested to much recoil could be the problem, I replied but haven't heard from them since. I haven't given up on them and I'm hoping they will deal with this effectively but at this point I am skeptical. I also responded on one of their TH-cam vids and now they have blocked me from responding on them. I was not being rude, I was just asking for help with the issue. Choose who you spend your $$$ with wisely.
