SWFA scopes are well made so I figure I can't lose for under $250. You'll probably love it. It tracks dead on, as well, if you were inclined to use it on out there. Had mine on a .22 for a bit, and maxed the elevation out frequently.

Of course you mount a scope to your eye box... specs are only a ball park to start That scope is at least 1" too far forward... closer to 1.5" IMHO. If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Pretty comical when Burns isn't the biggest douche in the thread.

ANY SCOPE... 2"-2.5" forward of the charging handle... and let me know what you think.

When you properly mount the optic. That's a 4.5-14 Leupold on 4.5X. Did you seriously just post a 3” 10 shots @15’ vid?! With a $4500 rifle? Jesus Christ, ai could throw bullets like darts more accurately at that range.

Why in the hell someone would put there nose on a changing handle and run 10.5" LOP just to crane to see an optic... on a hunting rig? Just plain nuts... What possible advantage is there vs. running a proper LOP with a properly mounted scope? That is the question. I honestly don't think you have a clue about this stuff.

You're so dumb you don't even understand what you watched. But I am not really suprised. You have been so far out of your lane for so long you thing the Wrong Way signs are just recomendations.

I suspect they will be sold out very very soon at that price. Great value at $200 If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Have you seen the coke bottles this fella used to sport? Lasik ain't even gonna fix that.....what works for him, ain't gonna work for someone with decent vision, and he can't even "see" that to understand what it might mean.

Kinda makes sense... but he sells guns to newbies and whatnot... Why not try and help them with a solid 5x5 setup out the gate? Hell, I run a full out ACS on most of my stuff and that is barely comfortable.

I can shoot 40 yds inside my home in a self defense scenario, 5 yds is across half my bedroom. I’m guessing life in a single wide trailer tends to skew your Reality but JFC….. LMAO! 5 yds….
