I've been struggling for about 2 months now with a decision on what optic to buy and the analysis paralysis is killing me. I built a 6 arc with an 18" barrel and it's going to get carried quite a bit so I am somewhat weight conscious. Will be often paired with a POT Voodoo-M.
I wanted to try a March 4.5-28 but the 4.5 low end seems a bit much for what I need as does the 28 high end, but I've used their 3-24x42 in the past and although I loved the weight I remember the eye box being brutal. March 1.5-15 looks SUPER interesting because of the weight and low end mag, but I read so many reviews complaining about the resolution that I always get scared before pulling the trigger.
TT 3-15M seems like it should be an awesome choice but at the same time I don't think I've ever seen one on a gas gun and for the money I always wonder why that's the case, especially when I see ZCO's everywhere. I'm not interested in ZCO for the weight, and I'm not interested in nightforce after a bad experience with them.
S&B has a 3-20 but I hear even less about them than the TT and it's still 31 ounces and 6.6K which seems rather insane.
Steiner M7 2.9-20? But then it weighs almost as much as the ZCO 4-20.
Is there anything else I should be looking at? Is there anything new on the horizon it may be worth waiting for in the 3-20 realm?
