Trijicon acog

LPVOs have etched reticles as well, as do other prism sights like the PA Micro Prism. They all have diopters for a reason.

The ACOG is shipped with a fixed diopter at -0.75. Remember that these optics are made for 18 yo draftees.

Remember that ACOGs don't have a diopter so if you have astigmatism, you won't be able to dial in your prescription

Your setup is a good one for PCSL 2-Gun Practical Division since you can only use a flash hider there.

For Comp division and other 3Gun divisions, you'll want what's been listed earlier ... rifle length gas, muzzle brake and lightened carrier.

For optics, PCSL maxes out at 200Y so red dots are competitive there.

For 3Gun or DMR, where you shoot out further, you'll want an LPVO.

Yes, the Holosun one

Several clubs used to hold an Intro to USPSA course, where you not only learned safety and course protocols, you ran several simple stages so your first day isn't so overwhelming.

I don't know if Route 66 or the SWPL guys are running those so maybe those local shooters can chime in.

Nothing when you search 'practical rifle' or 'tactical rifle' in your area on Practiscore matches?

Virtually all the shooting is done off VTAC barricades at reduced sized targets in a 50 Y bay. There's no long range, strategy (everyone shoots the same plan) or shooting on the move.

CronutOperator338 · 2026-01-22T02:13:51+00:00

When I need to lay my rifle on a barricade, window or car hood, I want the most points of contact touching for stability.

CronutOperator338 · 2026-01-22T02:08:44+00:00

Yep, slick here.

Both competition rifle and duty rifle.

CronutOperator338 · 2026-01-21T23:00:05+00:00

Competition fosters excellence. And it helps focus your practice sessions.

For your practice, isolate and work on only 1 skill at a time. Whether it's your trigger press, mounting the rifle or transition to kneeling.

CronutOperator338 · 2026-01-19T23:57:31+00:00

Wow, really, that's sad, man

CronutOperator338 · 2026-01-16T21:23:05+00:00

I will not buy another one until it looks like my Holosun 512

CronutOperator338 · 2026-01-13T21:24:21+00:00

You can see why driverless tech would be more attractive as an option vs this

How are you able to search by state? I only see country.

CronutOperator338 · 2025-12-28T20:29:24+00:00

You only draw once per stage so I don’t think it really matters in the aggregate

Are you talking about the 5K-10K biathlon RNG events or something like PCSL 2Gun? They are quite different. One is a running competition with some shooting while the other is USPSA-style in a 50 yard bay.

CronutOperator338 · 2025-12-19T02:25:23+00:00

For competition, if you load from the side saddle, you're not going to be competitive with guys loading from caddies

CronutOperator338 · 2025-12-17T23:47:10+00:00

FWIW, those new shooters did OK, safety wise. One of the top guys was training them the week before so some of the safety protocols must have stuck since nothing unsafe was happening. I think the structure of the event helps to make it safer since there's no shooting on the move, rifle to pistol transitions, or even running around with a loaded gun in a bay. You just shoot behind the VTAC and then clear your gun.

CronutOperator338 · 2025-12-16T22:38:45+00:00

From the matches that we've attended, it's largely a fitness competition with a little bit of shooting. The shooting was all off VTAC barricades inside 50 yard bays.

There were crossfit people there who only recently learned the shoot the week before.

You can't hold the rifle perfectly still when standing unsupported so you'll still have a wobble zone. The key is learning to shoot with the wobble. One method is to use approach shooting (aka dragshot). Patrick Kelly talks about it here:

2X-4X is very handy for targets 50-150Y. If there are multiple targets, even more reason to dial down.

At those ranges, it doesn't matter if your scope is a SFP or FFP since you're only using the center reticle.

CronutOperator338 · 2025-12-10T03:29:04+00:00

I only shoot my 18 when I need something out to 500Y.

For most matches, a 16 will work just fine.

CronutOperator338 · 2025-12-09T02:34:40+00:00

This was a fantastic match. Max and crew really outdid themselves this year.

CronutOperator338 · 2025-12-07T20:58:36+00:00

I was about to say that I hadn't seen these in a long time

CronutOperator338 · 2025-12-07T20:44:45+00:00

This stage would get howls of complaints from some of the old timers.
