    Mostly Tacticoolness.

    Its a service rifle build, so the optics need to be approved as qualifying for service class.
    So you will see fixed power (usually x4) optics on such rifles, either models used by various militaries around the world, clones of, or similar to.
    Other scopes will be Elcan Spectres, original Colt x4, Browe BTO, the cheaper but still decent Vortex Spitfire/Burris 332 fixed power scopes.

    The hiperfire model trigger I got is pretty similar to some bolt action triggers, single stage, tiny amount of creep(designed as such) and springs which allow you to choose weight of trigger pull. Mines set at around 2.5lb......

    Hiperfire triggers also have heavy hammer fall.
    Important for some hard milsurp 5.56x45 ammo primers and 22lr uppers to ensure reliable ignition of the rimfire ammo.

    Depending upon what springs you fit, it changes the hammer force as well as the trigger pull.
    I have the 24C in one of mine with the yellow springs fitted.
    It was a gift from the owner of Hiperfire, he is the neighbour of my good friend in the USA.

    What distance did you zero your ACOG @dogmatix? Did it zero easy enough?
