New here. Looking for a 10x, preferably fixed power, scope that won't break the bank for a recce style AR. I want to learn how to range with a Mil dot reticle. I prefer to 1/10th Mil turrets. Mil/mil just seems to make more sense to me. I have narrowed my options to the following two scopes:
removed competitor I have had the opportunity to try the Bushnell with MOA turrets and was surprised as how clear the optics were. I didn't see any edge distortion or obvious flaws at all. For an optic in this price range I was very impressed. I have not had a look through the Weaver yet. Does anyone have any experience with it? I am I missing any other options for Mil/Mil in the $300 and under price range that are worth looking at? Thanks for any input. Edited by Kickboxer - July/24/2010 at 15:38 |

I think I have a good scope in mind for you for around $300.00. Check out the Millett tactical Millett 4-16x50 TRS-1 Tactical 30mm Riflescope. It's built like a tank and your getting a good glass for your $.
Hope that helps!

the only two 10x with mil turrets for under $300 i can think of is the bushnell elite 3200 (they just came out with mil turrets) and the second is the WOTAC. Check out SWFA b/c they should sell both.
