    I've been considering getting a Leupold Mark 4hd 6-24 but have been debating between the PR3 reticle and the PR2. Do you regret not having the full tree in PRS?

  • @DarthLepard
    @DarthLepardКүн бұрын

    I have never used a tree in PRS but I know of some that do. It is very easy to build your process around not using the tree. Pretty simple rule in PRS is if you have time to dial, then you dial, period. I also tend to utilize hold under instead of hold overs on the stages that it makes sense to hold

    I use the TriggerCam and it does take some getting used to. I used it for a few one day matches before taking it to a Pro match. I highly recommend, it continues to be one of the best training techniques I have used to date!!!

    Nice....just started my prs and prs22 journey this year.... got 3rd for the prs22 regional.... Running a tank brake from Hawkins. Very similar to the ace without the top ports... These are the main muzzle breaks im interested in .....as i wondered if the dn5 would be better then the hawkins..... Im shooting 6.5 cm so im definitely getting pushed on the props....

  • @DarthLepard
    @DarthLepardКүн бұрын

    If you watch my first muzzle break showdown you can see the DN5 was the easy winner in regard to felt recoil and muzzle rise. You would have to get used to the blast though, it is considerably more than the ACE/Hawkins though.

    Nice review. I would only caveat in the interest of fairness that while on the surface the Chad is twice the price of the DN5 it also includes a tuner. I know a lot of people may not use it, but if you do use a tuner with a DN5 like an ATS tuner it’ll be about the same price as a Chad, but you’ve now got 2 components instead of 1.

  • @DarthLepard
    @DarthLepardКүн бұрын

    very valid point and I plan on doing some tuner testing in the future although not sure if I want to spend the $$$ to get enough shots to make it statistically valid though. THe 6mm Dasher shoots 1/2 minute almost any combo I put through it :)

    This is interesting. I just ordered the ACE Brake, it will be waiting for me at the Worlds. Was really looking at the DN5 as well, but I really hate brakes with a passion and have pretty noise sensitive ears so I think its the right choice for me, would run a suppressor but cant bring one to the US.

    @@DarthLepard yeah I know Buschman, Blackketter, Orgain and Harmon run it. After reading the precision rifle blog about Buschman it really sealed my choise on the Ace vs Dn5 since he complained about tinnitus after 2 day matches with other brakes and not the ace and I already have been suffering from tinnitus since 16 years old. One of the reasons I nearly refuse to shoot unsuppressed

    Great comparison don! I switched to an ace from a helfire match. I love the ace due to it consistently tracks straight up and very little left or right. I hated getting headaches from the hellfire and how it wasn't consistent on where I could expect the reticle every shot.

    yeah, the wind for sure showed up on Saturday. I did miss the 1st 2 shots and if you look closely you can see I was too strong on my wind call. I started at 1.9 mil and ended up hitting at 1.3 mil. The 2nd miss was because I was a dummy and did not properly measure and I tried 1.5 mil at the smaller target and again missed upwind. An area I need to improve on is to actually measure my corrections.....
