Optics Speed Comparrison

I felt like the results of my zones-of-accuracy tests were a little inconclusive, especially regarding the relative speed of different optics at close range, so I set this test up to try and get a better comparison of target acquisition time between a red-dot, traditional scope, LPVO, and forward-mounted scout scope. TheIdahoanShowIdaho was one of […]
