Probably many of you asked before , but I was curious what are you using on your AR-10? I got my first AR-10 , and I just sold my Viper 6.5-20X44, and thinking about to get a FFP Viper 6-24X50 PST. I am planing to shoot max 600 yards. It is any other scope in that price range would be a good choice, or I just find a best decision?
Can you add photos of your AR-10 with optic?

imo there is no better bang for your buck in the scope world than the ffp vortex

Thats a good choice but my choice would be a USO 1.8-10x37 its a nice low profile scope that can get you out to 600 and beyond. I have had good results with it on my mk12 AR

Don't forget the new sn3 t-pal 3.2-17x37mm. I've had a Schmidt, premier, and USO. I've decided to stick with USO

I have been using a Nikon Monarch 4-16x42 BDC on my DPMS LR-308. Utilizing Nikon's Spot On Ballistic Program I have shot this set up out to 623 yards lifting off jars of Tannerite. Pretty fun and absolutely amazing how Spot On can marry your rifle/scope and ammo to produce great shooting results.
Go to Nikonhunting.com , click the Spot On logo and check it out. It's all FREE plus there are App's for iphone and Android as well for a small fee.

Re: Help needs with scope choice on AR-10 .308

i have the bushnell hdmr h59 on mine. No problems here unless you want illum.
 
Re: Help needs with scope choice on AR-10 .308

NF 2.5-10x32. All you need out to 600yrds and then some.
Premier light tactical 3-15 is my 2nd choice.
I run NF 2.5's on most of my gassers. Nice and compact

Vortex PSTs weren't out when I got my AR10, and I'm a cheap bastard who doesn't change something just for the sake of change. A Sightron SIIB 4.5-14x44MD still works for me.
