Rifle Scopes m24 scope ?

Re: m24 scope ?

I agree if you aren't worried about the brand or model, then don't concern yourself with the spec, 10X is definitely usable, 15X or higher is more so for most folks on precision rifle.

Respectfully, I have seen 3.5-10x used on M24s first-hand. I did not say it was exclusively used. The 10x was the original. The 3.5-10x M3 was used later on, before the M2 FDE model was issued for the M110. Was it issued? No clue. Was it used? Yes.

Yep

As recent as January of this year I saw designated marksmen and snipers from the U.S. Army/Guard with Mark 4, 3-10 40mm, LR/T scopes. They were outfitted with M3 knobs that were set up for the 168gr bullet. The scopes had Illuminated TMR reticles.
