Just picked up a Leupold Mark AR Mod 1, 1.5-4 x 20. These are the newer versions of the Mark AR scopes that they make.
Made the comparison between it, the Burris 1-4, and the Vortex 1-4 several months ago - set them all side by side, glassed around with them, adjusted the mag on the all - this was the one I liked the best.
Now, this is going on the 300BLK rifle. I've got my mind made up on finishing this one, and it's gonna be nice. I just need several more parts in order to finish it. Hopefully I can get this done before the Mad Shootfest To Blow Up Drew's Phone. If I can finish it in time, I'll end Drew's phone with this rifle. <lmao>
So, I looked at weight, OAL, clarity of glass, and the reticle, when comparing these guys. The Leupold won in all categories, for me. By far the lightest of the three, and damn that optical clarity - I've rarely seen glass this clear.
When I compared them, the one I was looking at had a custom elevation cap for 300BLK 125gr OTM - perfect. That was awhile ago, and that's a custom cap, so the scope I actually got has a .223 Rem cap on it for 55gr @ 3100 fps. Eh. I'll order the custom cap for the 300BLK 125gr OTMs. This one is also the illuminated reticle, the Firedot-G SPR, green dot. <thumbsup> It's a badass sum'biotch.
I STILL can't find my damn camera, and it's been missing since the T-Day dune trip. No pics right now. In the meantime, here's something to tide you pic-whores over a little...
