ODIN Works B1 Low Profile Handstop
I use these on all of my 3 gun rifles, and PCC's. This product takes up minimal space, yet still provides a very positive grip at the same spot of your handguard every time. It is very light, and very strong. I often use it as a baracade stop for long range shots. Odin is a great company and often sponsors competitions. Give this a try, you'll love it.

I love this product. I use them on all by competition AR's,and PCC's. Once you get used to using your strong hand to manipulate the bolt catch/release, you will get much faster at clearing feed issues, or changing out a problematic magazine on the run. With this product, your strong hand never has to leave the grip to lock back, or release the bolt.

Riton RT-S Mod 7 1-8x28mm IR-T Rifle Scope
I use these on my 3 gun competition rifles, and I love them. Great image quality, and they are built like a tank. The value for price is excellent. Riton is based in Tucson Arizona, and often sponsors shooting competitions. I love manufacturers that give back to the community. Give this one a try, you'll love it.

STAY AWAY! - Poor image quality for a $500 scope

Bushnell Nitro 15-45x65 Spotting Scope
Considering this was from Bushnell,and from their new mid-level Nitro line, I expected reasonably good image quality. I was wrong. I had an opportunity at a PRS match to compare this scope to 2 others in its class, a Vortex Diamondback and a Leupold SX-1. The Bushnell Nitro wasn't even close to the same image quality at either of it's competitors. The Leupold was much better, and the Vortex Diamondback blew everything away. The SX-1 and Diamondback are in the same $500 price range, and have the same specs.
The performance is so much worse, that I contacted Bushnell to see if I had a manufacturing issue. The only response I received was an automated email with an address to send it to for repair, at my expense. No call, no one reached out to see if they could assist. Don't be fooled by the "no questions asked" warranty pitch.
The two major issues are poor image quality around the edges of the image, and more noticeable was the "smearing" of colors on the target at full magnification. At 200yds, and 45x magnification, the orange bulls eye and rings of the target are severely "smeared". Not really out of focus or heat mirage, the colors look as if the orange areas of the target were wet ink, and someone ran their hand across the ink. The smear is static, and doesn't dance around like heat mirage.
Overall, Bushnell is very disappointing. I don't even want to sell this thing to anyway. I'm stuck with a paper weight. Get the Vortex Diamondback, it was amazingly cle
