budget dialable scope for 223

[Blaw]

yup, i get spending big money or so on your main rig, what about your 22's and 223's for when your practicing? certainly your not slapping nightforce on those!

and don't say SWFA I am in canada and they dont ship here, used market is sparse as well...don't rub it in

 

[skierhs]

What is “budget” for you? 100,500,1200?

 

[Blaw]

sub 500

 

[Ndbowhunter]

What are your options?

The bushnell elite 3200 10x isn’t terrible. I had one and it was fine for using as a prairie dog scope on a 17hmr

Most shots were off the reticle not dialed so can’t say it’s bombproof in that regard. They made some with Mil turrets that’d be the one to use. Mine was moa. Not ideal

What’s wrong with a Nightforce on a 223?

just keeping it budget, I would far rather put the money into my hunting rig. Or other items

didnt have any other thoughts, I agree I would like a mil/mil setup so it seems to limit things
Ill keep my eye out for some bushnell elites tho!

I just finished a 223 build and put an Athlon Argos BTR 6-24 on it. Athlon stuff is supposed to be rock solid.

I'll have more feedback on it soon, but I'm really impressed with it so far. Great turrets, zero lock, ffp, illumination that works during daylight, etc.

Good looking rig too.

SWFA...



The Bushy 3200 10x is cheap up here. But MOA turrets and Mildot Ret aren't something I'll suffer ever again.

I don’t have either of these scopes, but..... if I were looking for a budget dialing scope I’d look into the Bushnell forge that are on ultra clearance or Nikon black’s that are on close out. $600-$800 scopes marked down to $300 range.

I have had good luck with the Leupold mark AR 3-9x40 it’s a Mil/Mil scope and it came with a dialable turret for 55gr @ 3100fps.

Nothing at all. I have my .223 set up pretty much exactly like my 7 mm mag, which includes a NF SHV.

 

[justinspicher]

I have a NF on my AR, neither of which are cheap. That set up shoots way better than I can.

 

[Shotshill]

Heres a reasonable dial up and very RETRO:
They still work!!!

 

[Justin.Medcalf]

I have a Nikon mtac 3-12x42 with mrad turrets and mil reticle. Love it! I paid 300 new and they also come in moa/moa. Mine is on a 308. Tracts like it should and the dials feel good.

They made/make a mil mil one

That would be a bunch more appealing. But a Mil/Mil 3200 10x is not a model or version I've come across.

Now that is interesting... kinda bizzare that Bushnell doesn't still produce that version. Seems like they'd sell a lot more of them.

there is one on amazon, as well as precision optics out of BC. There is a 30% rebate going on right now with bushnell..... so it would cost be 270 CAD all said and done...not to shabby


yeaaa just double checked pic..look like mil reticle moa turrets...wtf is up with that crap
