shooterrex Posted Friday at 03:26 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 03:26 PM Panzer 1-10x24 First Focal Plane LPVO Scope https://share.google/KNqQrUJqCs0brAXfQ I have this on a 5.56. Stays zeroed. Lifetime warranty. Not the greatest glass but not bad for the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GorillaTactics2089 Posted Friday at 06:33 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 06:33 PM So low, medium, or high power variable and what are we talking price wise? I push most towards Primary Arms optics and the Vortex Strike Eagle line when keeping it under $1000.00. I’ve beat the tar out of both and tested the optics being driven around in a patrol rack for days on end. Zero issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightStalker Posted Friday at 10:06 PM Author Report Share Posted Friday at 10:06 PM Medium power is probably good and I’d like to stay between 3-500. I had a 1-6 Burris on it and think a little more power would work nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weight kinda goes out the window when looking for scopes. In reality, it doesn't matter much, besides humping the weight - it's centered over the middle of the gun, so it doesn't affect too much in gun-handling - unless it's an absolute brick. They're all gonna be a pound or two. If you want something that will do everything that the gun is capable of, look at the Primary Arms 3~18 SLX line. THey'll have a reticle that will work for you, no matter what, and it'll run you about $500. https://www.primaryarms.com/rifle-scopes/brand/primary-arms/magnification/3x-18x Edited Sunday at 03:13 AM by 98Z5V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightStalker Posted Sunday at 05:40 AM Author Report Share Posted Sunday at 05:40 AM I know there’s really no such thing as a light scope, hoping someone knew some new technology that I didn’t know about. ya a dream at that price lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
