I passed on the ruger mini 14 and got a DPMS sportical 16in in .223. Turns out it wasnt much more than the mini 14. I got a red dot at the store. Only 600 for the rifle, case,and 2 mags, 116 for the red dot. I was pretty satisfied. I only shot 20 rounds today. Zeroed the red dot, I mainly shot it off a bag prone. I will put a scope on it later. I didnt really shoot groups, never tried without a scope. Heres a pic

Bushnell 3200 tacticals are 160 on midway I might grab one of those.

Any suggestions for a scope?
I dont know much about AR scopes

Thanks for the help guys
 
Re: First AR, yes I got the AR

I'm getting a Vortex Viper PST 1-4x24 .MIL scope for my IPSC upper build, you might wanna check that out.
It's hard to suggest a scope without knowing your budget, prefered magnification range or intended use.
