Hey man, I know it’s an old video and you probably won’t see this, but I just wanted to say I appreciate your video and have been going through quite a few of them this evening 😁
As a resident of a very restrictive country (Norway🇳🇴) I have been looking into building a general purpose rifle based on the Ruger American Ranch in 308, with the Skinner rail and possibly the PA PLXC 1-8. You seem to have a good amount of experience with all of the the above, so I just wanted to ask if I may be getting to much glass for the rifle, or if there is another route you would recommend?
About to start your most recent shelter video and just wanted to say thanks!
Thanks for watching and thanks for the encouraging words! I think you are dead on and if I were going to setup a .308 like you’re planning I’d do it the same way. The scout scope works good, there just aren’t very many good optics available right now compared to what’s available in the LPVO world. I don’t think a 1-8 is too much optic, it’s exactly what I would pick too. Let me know how it turns out! Take care!
"Optics are a total game changer" May I quote you sir to the local boomer FUDD iron sight cult? 🤣 That aside doing your work with optics out to 500 is a great practical skill set to have and despite the weight the LPVO is remarkable effective piece of kit!
Do so at your own peril lol. I think the LPVO is really hard to beat as an all around effective optic. Operator skill is still the #1 factor in effective shooting, but a well set up optic can make a decent shooter down right scary. I prefer to have both irons and optics, why limit yourself? I think mastering everything to do with a rifle is what a Rifleman should look to do. My next video I’ll be shooting both the irons and optics so you’ll have to stay tuned for that!
@@BadlandsRiflemanTotally agreed on irons and optics work. Looking forward to it brother
@joegeezer6375 thanks, should be soon
You guys are big time supporters of Black Rifle Coffee Co. No freaking way would I support you.
You must be thinking of some other company, I’m a one man show and BRCC lost my business when the CEO opened his mouth about the Kenosha Kid. Fieldcraft is a skill, not a company..
