The "fact checkers" will tell you that there are no aborted baby parts being used in the the development or generation of the Covid vaccines. This is the explanation Reuters gives.
A Facebook video discussing the Oxford AstraZeneca vaccine for COVID-19 has falsely claimed it contains tissue from an aborted human foetus.
The video (here), broadcast live on Nov. 15, first shows a picture on a computer screen of the packaging for the AstraZeneca-developed COVID-19 vaccine ChAdOx1-S, also…… [read more]
The T1 was later replaced by the T2 with a redesign including an even more protective body, and an improvement to the glass, reducing the blue-tint common across led-reflecting sights. While the cost of the Aimpoint T-2 Micro rides higher than similarly designed red dots, they bring with them not only the reputation of being the trend-setter, but also considerable aftermarket support. Featuring night vision settings and a 5-year battery life, the Micro Series by Aimpoint isn’t going away any time soon.
Holosun 403/503/515/530
The Holosun lineup continues to impress with a variety of options, and confuse with difficult to remember naming conventions. Early to adopt the implementation of a small solar panel into some of their designs, a Holosun can still run batteries down, but sells itself on sporting multiple reticle options that can be selected by the user. Options in dot color or to have an EOtech-like ring, Holosun has effectively found their way onto more than one professional rifle.
Trijicon MRO
Breaking the pattern of straight-tube optics, the Trijicon MRO is a red dot sight that bears a larger front aperture that turns the body of the optic into a funnel facing outward to minimize the tunnel-vision feeling of many alternatives. Ruggedized just like we expect from Trijicon, the MRO entered into the tight market and has since retained a place complete with various mounting options. Bearing similar size and weight to that of an Aimpoint T-2 Micro, but with a larger field of view and a variety of reticles and dot colors, the MRO sacrifices some durability while retaining the excellent glass quality typical to MRO.

This is a very informative video. In it he gives us good tips on making sure that the parallax has been properly set on our scopes.
Of course, if you have a second focal plane scope with fixed parallax this won’t work, but then, you don’t usually purchase SFP scopes for long distance shooting.
But he does give a pointer towards the end for making sure parallax won’t effect your shot if you cannot adjust it.
Vortex has a holographic sight. This came out in July and I’m a little late to the game.
So this wouldn’t surprise me except that it does. I thought that EOTech was the only maker who could claim ownership of a holographic design. I said so in a recent post, and readers just let me chatter and prattle on in my ignorance without correcting me, allowing me to look stupid (well, I can manage that all by myself).
Anyway, it would be interesting to see if readers have any experience with it and what you think, although I still think the EOTech just looks better.
