Friend of mine did with the the Aerovoe Rattle cans... came out pretty sweet I think.
Running a MTB trigger in an Aero Lower with a SwampFox Tactical Tomohawk 1-8; hope to get it out to do more shooting with it.
Here is my initial vid of the scope itself-

My 2nd focal plane scopes with fixed parallax are set at 100 yards. Have you got an opinion on the 50 yard parallax setting on the SF 1-8? The most common 50 yard fixed parallax is used on rimfire scopes. I think my Vortex SE 1-6 recommends zeroing at 50 yards but has the parallax set at 100 yards. Does SF state at what distance to zero their 1-8 Tomahawk? It'll be interesting to see how the Tomahawk 1-8 performs at longer range.
Good video, thanks for posting!

Will have to find out first hand for sure....
Busy with work right now but, I am hoping to get it out to 300 yards in the next couple of weeks or so and try to take it to 600 this fall.
