AR-15 Scope Suggestions

[Tall Shadow]

No, You were not dreaming....I had heard fairly good things about the Higher-end Barskas...and bought a pair of them for My two Prairie dog guns...a 22-250 custom Mauser 98, and My 24" A3 AR-15.

I bought a 6-24x40, mil-dot for the AR-15, and a 8-32x45 for the 22-250.

I liked the one on the AR-15 allot!..it was dead on, held zero well, and stayed on zero throughout all of the zoom ranges...and through all of the windage/elevation adjustments I put it through.

The 8-32x45(I think it's 45mm?) held zero the same way, but was getting a little dim/fuzzy at the higher zoom settings.

I was going to keep the 6-24 on the AR-15, but I was not happy enough with the 8-32 on the 22-250.....so, I went out and bought another of the scopes I have used on my bench rest 50BMG rifles.....A BSA Platinum 8-32x50 milldot....and I Love it!

I also was just about given one of the new Millett side focus Illuminated mill-dot 30mm scopes, buy a good friend of mine.....and it is so nice, that I think I'm going to have to change out the Barska on the AR-15 with it......

Now I've got two almost brand new Barskas that I don't have on a rifle.........there is only one thing to do....

I MUST buy two new rifles!
