Wow...a charging handle made to redirect gases for those that use the "can". I know they've had it for years but this is another contender. I have not been to the range in about 15 minutes and I feel like I need to go again.

Follow up shots are a good comparing factor for me. I most times shoot alone so spotting my own hits, splash and even misses are important to me. I planned for my system to place 1 moa with my reloads at a lesser price than $30/20rd box (2021). I know it is possible for others to reload their cartridges to 1/2moa or smaller but my goal was 1moa for less dollars and the nearest decent sporting goods store is 2 1/2 to 3 hours away. Thanks for comparing these cartridges for us. What brake is that on your rifle?

Sorry Sig, and I'm from Oregon, but I'll choose Holosun every time. First, they have a broader array of optic availability and their experience with making optics that fit user needs seems unparalleled. They even give the higher end optics a run for their money with features offered. My favorite optics are Aimpoints but they can't seem to be bothered to release a green dot version and my eye picks up green much quicker. They also don't implement solar. Arguably they don't need it given their battery life and I love Aimpoints service but it goes to show you how bent Holosun is on innovation according to user demands. There are also plenty of videos of them being abused ie Sage Dynamics and they do quite well. They made their name by making desirable optics. I feel Sig relies on their name to sell theirs. I realize these are both made in China but that doesn't make them trash.

Only downside to the Midwest industries is you have to slide it onto the rail (can’t drop it on) so that mean removing iron sights or anything else that might be in the way.

@3200ish3 ай бұрын
@jefferyboring4410 I think it depends on the size of the bolt. The typical t15 is not ideal and depends on your zero distance. It might be good at 50yards but then how does it do as you shoot out to greater distances. But also when mounting to the rail you need to push the optic forward toward the muzzle.
