Built a 300 blackout recently with a 16" Wilson combat barrel that I'm real impressed with. Cycles subs and supers perfect. I'm looking for a decent reasonable priced optic to use on it. I read Leupold is coming out with one soon with a bdc for supers and subs but the price is supposed to be fairly steep. Looking hard at the viper pst 1-4 x24 or a eotech with flip to side magnifier. Most shots will be from 50-125 yards. having compatibility with head mounted NVG would be a big plus but not a deal breaker.

My son is 10 and I'm considering using it as his deer rifle next year. Seems to have a lot more knockdown than his 243 and i can attach my suppressor for him.

What scope/scopes would you guys run on a 300 blackout AR platform?

Leupold just came out with a scope with a BDC for the 300bo. Price wise I think its going to up there a lil bit around 1k area or maybe a lil less.

Finally decided to go with the vortex pst. Will report on how well it works on the blackout platform for me.

Mike at cstactical.com was real helpful. Sent him a pm on here and he called me back at home after hours and shipped it the next day. Now thats customer service.
