Is is true that the ACOG TA11C is about as perfect of a match as possible with the 16" match barrel firing 77 SMK'a at 2650 or so??

I was about to buy a ta31f, but I will be shooting strictly 77smk's through this recce type rifle and wanted to get the appropriate acog first.

Thanks,

Alan

Hmmm I was thinking that route too, but I keep changing from the ACOG to a lower power variable lol.

I have this setup, but with the TA11E reticle. It works well, but I have not had the opportunity to shoot at range with the BDC to confirm. I shoot the 77 Nosler and I think that the BDC most closely works at 2615.

Depending on your budget and what ranges your shooting at.....Here are some good options. I recomend putting them in a Bobro mount, and will stick with 30/34MM scopes for the internal adjustment. In order to wring the 77's at distance, your going to want some more magnification than a 3-4 or even 6x will give you.

Absolute best deal in optics right now. Its a PST with MD, Zero stop 1/10 and 30MM. Glass is as good as nighforce and beats leopold imo.

Or the x24 if you can find one. IMO the best combat optic made (was made or whatever)

$1300ish http://libertyoptics.com/contents/en-us/d73.html The 2-12 is IMO the best SPR optic out there. I had one on my Mark 12 build and stupidly sold it with the rifle. Best shooting rifle I ever owned. I highly reccomend this optic. The glass is second to none and its built like a tank.
