Armed Eye Doc Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 I had a PFI RR 600-2 on my LAR-8 in the beginning. I used it until I was given a different scope. I then let my sister-in-law use it on her 308. I only had it for a couple of times shooting and don't remember that it was bad. But I really don't have much of an opinion that I recall. (Wow, I sounded like a Clinton with that answer. ) My sister-in-law is still using it and can shoot effectively with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue109 Posted September 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 (edited) Lol nice. Should be here tomorrow. The universe doesn't want me to hit the range. I've set a day every week for the past 3 months and some catastrophe always shows up. I'm thinking Ill put it on the 18" rifle I sold to my father in law so I can steal my Weaver tac back.

blue109 Posted October 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 (edited) Silver rings hurt my eyes, but they were on sale lol. Krylon time I guess. Glass isn't quite as nice as my SWFA HD, or the bush tac 1-6.5 but those are really clear scopes for the price, and it's still pretty good. Turrets have caps but the adjustments are nice and solid underneath with good clicks. not really meant to be dialed with the BDC. reticle is matched to FGGM 168s I believe out to 800yds, and has wind holds for 5 and 10 mph. Supposedly it's pretty close to the 77g OTM 5.56 out to 600 so I was thinking of using it on my SPR, but that gun shoots so well i don't want to mess with it. It will probably stay in the 308 and I'll move the 1-6 to something else. nice lightweight setup. Would like to get the scope a little lower. The warne rings are .53" scope tube to base. My PRI mediums are .47" and just a hair too low. Not finding much in between. I think a .50 base to bottom of tube would be perfect Edited October 28, 2016 by blue109 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
