gunfrog Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I am curious to hear about your set up, mount you use, where you put it, where you zero and what your rational is. Here is my tragic tale: I use to put my JPoint on my scope( NF 2.5X10, NPR2) at 12 oclock , useing a JP scope mount for 30mm tube and zero at 100 yards. But I found most of the time I wanted to use it was on closer targets and I would have to hold real high, and that made me slower. I changed zero to 35 yards, with better results, but since my MRD is so high above my bore if I had some wide open targets at 50 yards that would be best taken with the MRD I would have to hold low. SO im going to put it off set on the rail with the JP mount and zero at 15 (for busting them clay birds up close) but should still hiy close to dot out to 60 yards, so I hope. I am curious to hear about your set up, mount you use, where you put it, where you zero and what your rational is. Here is my tragic tale: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warpspeed Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 JPoint on a Daniel Defense 1 O'Clock mount. Mounted on the flattop, it puts the MRDS perfectly so all I have to do is just roll the gun. It has a Picatiny rail so many of the MRDS will fit. Even a C More RTS.

RiggerJJ Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 JPoint offset at 1100, (left handed) zeroed at 50=no thinking... .jj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpowe Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Doctor mounted to flat top, offset to the right at 45 deg so the dot and cross hairs are at the same height. Zero'd at 50 yards. Again, no thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinistralRifleman Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Has anyone done speed tests on the clock using primary optic vs secondary optics at close ranges. Having used stacked optics and offset optics I always felt that for at least the first target acquiring the secondary optic was slower than just using the primary. I'm wondering at what point it becomes even/faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having used stacked optics and offset optics I always felt that for at least the first target acquiring the secondary optic was slower than just using the primary. I'm wondering at what point it becomes even/faster. I use a Micro Aimpoint at 1 oclock in a Larue Off set mount. I find the micro aimpoint is handy when you have a stage that would require you to rapidly change magnification between targets without having the opportunity to move. Here is a stage where it came in handy. I used the red dot on the first 4 close targets. Switched to 3x for the long targets through the barrel (head shot with hostage in front of hit at 50 yards or so) then back to the red dot for the targets on the move. It was faster than using the cat tail on the Swarovski because of the limited motion I had to change the power. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having used stacked optics and offset optics I always felt that for at least the first target acquiring the secondary optic was slower than just using the primary. I'm wondering at what point it becomes even/faster. If starting from port arms to first shot, its a crap shoot for me, I have a tendency to draw the butt-stock correctly in the shoulder pocket and using the main optic faster then I do trying to get the butt-stock canted and searching for the dot. But at Low ready, I'm much faster with the RDS, due to already having the "ideal" butt-stock placement on my shoulder to look out of the RDS as I draw the rifle on target. I also believe that a tube RDS like the micro is better suited (although heavier) for closer targets. I find in practice that when targets are within 15 or so yards and are wide open shots, I don't "look" for the reddot simply center the target within the tube and pull the trigger. I also find with the RAMP mount you can actually twist the rifle far enough were your non shooting eye can over look the main scope allowing you a great FOV. But these are just my findings.

jimmcc Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 JPoint in a Burkett. Might try a Delta point though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downhere2 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I use a T1 with a Daniel Defense 1 oclock mount behind the scope. I also have a warne ramp. Either work well for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glock3422 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 My son uses a Trijicon RMR on a Warne Ramp mount with a NF 2.5-10x. Charlie provided the Cat Tail. I believe it is zeroed at 100 yds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
