You mean you're thinking Leupold or Nightforce, but would settle for a little BSA?

150-160 i think. the grip is nice very easy to hold. its a tad small if you have big hands but still pretty comfy.

*Note that these photos show the Primary Arms Micro Dot which I had before I got the Aimpoint. The Aimpoint is the same size, better battery life, more settings, NVG capable, better built, etc. Mine sits on a LaRue mount.

Aimpoints rock, especially with a 2MOA dot.

For less than you would spend on a Nightforce or Leupold Mark IV.

No I would not. I am looking at getting a Sig 552 for my daughter for her to practice with. That is why I was asking about the BSA. I have heard about them and was wondering. Sorry for the mix up.

I am looking at getting a Bushmaster Patrol Carbine or a Sig M400 or maybe a LMT, not sure yet. I like the idea of having the ability to reach out to 800 meters if need be, but I like the ability for quick shots from 100 to 25 meters or less. If you have ever hunted coyotes you know how quick and quite they can be when they are that close.

I would take a look at the Nikon M-223 in a 2-8X32 with the BDC600 reticle if you intend on doing 3 gun and yote hunting ,
if your looking at going a little cheaper
P-223 in 3X32 with the BDC reticle . both those should get you out to 600 yards without any adjustments. Both have 95% light transmission and 1/4" MOA turrets
They also make the P-223 in a 3-9X40 same as above for around $200

I have read about these and would like to try them. They just look very fragile. I have not had the chance look at one much less hold one.

So I am asking all of you to please post pictures of your scopes, red dot, etc. and why you got them. I live in a small town and the closest gun shop that has any scopes/sights is 2hrs away.

Currently I have an Eotech 552 mounted on my DPMS Carbine.

Why not another eotech? You have a magnifier already.

the Aimpoints are by no means fragile so no worries there

I believe at one time they offered a lifetime warranty on those Aimpoints .Seems weird they would have changed it
For about $250 less you can get the vortex strikefire with a no BS lifetime warranty wether your the first owner or the 10th owner .

My Vortex 3x9x40 Viper on a Windham Weaponry AR. I bought the scope for small game hunting.
