What's your favorite optic?

[NooB33]

So, I see a lot of specific optic questions. Lets broaden this a little. What is everyone's favorite 3-gun optic? Price range isn't in the discussion, and only refer to optics that you personally use or have used in the past. Part of this is general curiosity, and the other part is me looking at buying a new scope Soo..let's hear it!

If price isn't an issue then there is only one Optic to discuss. Swarovski Z6-i with BRT reticle.

If price is no issue, the Swaro Z6i is the best. It's expensive, but it's the best.

Does anyone know anything about this one......................

I would have to agree 110%. I have 3 of them.

Since I am also in the market for a scope, could anyone comment on a couple other options:

Vortex Viper PST 1-4

Trijicon Accupoint TR24

I used to runthe Trijicon TR24. Actually I had a pair of them. Great scope. I'd rather see you spend a few hundred more and get the Leupold VX6 1-6X that Tony is running. Even his blind ass hit the 300 yard steel now that he can see it.

1. I will if you give me the "few extra hundred"
2. Hell, I even hit the 300 yd steel with a much less expensive 1-4 optic.

i like the vortex better personally

I have the vortex HS 1-4, it's the same as the PST except the turrets are capped. It's all that I know for an AR optic, and I'm please with it. You're welcome to give it a try or look through it if I ever make another match.

Buy once cry once. If you get semi-serious about 3 gun $500 aint nuthin' in the big scheme of things.

Soon you will be asking, What freight company has the best rates on shipping pallets of primers, bullets and brass to my house.

I have the Vortex Viper I have been very happy with this scope my only gripe is the uncapped turrents can be unitentionally adjusted if one is not careful. The first time after using 52 rounds on a long range stage i got home and looked at the turrents and both were several minutes off.
Another time I had just got done confirming zero i went to bag my rifle and I raked my arm againist the top cap and turned the top turrent. so far i am averaging one oops per thousand rounds.
moral of story always adjust nobs to zero after sighting in and check to make sure nobs are on zero before shooting.

Overall I like the reticle i feel the clarity is appropiate for the price range if I had it all to do over again with 900 to spend I would make the same choice again. My other consideration was the trijicon. My brother bought the trijicon he is happy with his choice I am happy with my choice.

Wormydog has the trijicon you should talk to him and let him muddy up that descion.
If you pm me you are welcome to check out my scope and fire my rifle.
later

I do have a swaroski laser range finder that I give a thousand for & that is the best glass I have.

Chambers got hosed by those turrets at Ozark last year.

That Triji is a great scope. I have the TR-24 with a green German #4 reticle.

 

[jhjh11]

Leupold vx-6 if u don't want to break the bank I have one and love it

 

[technetium-99m]

Does anyone know anything about this one......................

Am I correct in finding that this scope can be had with a simple #4 crosshair?

I may be in for that, how's the 1X on the low end?
