Just traded a bolt gun for a GAP 10. I have the Premier 5-25x56 that was on my bolt gun but kind of feel like that's more than I need. Anyone have an optic they loved for a GAP 10 or similar AR 10?
What caliber? I would have different scope requirements if trying to take advantage of having a 6 or 6.5 Creedmoor vs a 308 for example. What the rifles primary use is would make a big difference also. I guess caliber wouldn't even be much to consider if primary use is shooting practical size targets within 800 yards or so.
Well, no matter what you decide, there is certainly nothing wrong with the optic you have. A lot of guys think it's sacrilegious to use more that 10x. Me, I enjoy my magnification. I have some 8.5-25 Mk IV's on my long barreled .308 AR's. I don't mind it a bit past 600. You know, 6-20's aren't bad. But like I said, you own that optic, try it out. Rings and mounts are the tricky part now.
Hehe I'm running a S&B 5-25 on my Larue OBR. I used to a run a Nightforce F1 on it that I thought was the perfect size and magnification for it, but I had no rifle to put my S&B on so...
I wouldn't go higher than a 3-17x on a 308. Just too much glass for the gun. I honestly loved having a 1.8-10 on my 308 upper. It's perfect for anything under 800. Don't over glass that gas gun!
I have a 5-25 PM11 on mine with MSR reticle and really like it. I don't think it's too much scope at all. I rarely shoot it below 17 power because this rifle is so accurate that anything under 600 yards is boring. I hit a 12x12 at 640 yards with mine so often it's become boring..
Here have been my favorite on an AR10 so far. Bushnell tactical 3.5-21x50mm Nightforce 3.5-15x50mm FFP/SFP KAHLES K312i 3-12x50mm Leupold MK6 3-18 And for cost the VORTEX PST 4-16x
We SALE them ALL so if we can be of help let me know.
depending on your budget s&b 3-20 or one of the new 5-20 shorts would be good. what is the barrel length? if it's a 16 inch, the 2.5-10 nightforce scopes are a good fit.
My first suggestion would be the NF 2.5-10x42. Good little scope with great reviews. I had a 32mm version on my AR10 before I sold it. Saves you about a half pound or more on the bigger scopes. I did like having the extra magnification on the high end when I had a 3-15x on it, but found if I was shooting with the intention of quick follow-up shots at 300-400 yards I was backing it off a little. All that said, I'm intrigued enough by the new March 3-24x52 that I pre-ordered one. It's going on a bolt gun but would make for a great multi-purpose AR10 scope in my mind: lightweight, high magnification range, and illuminated (if you need it). Hasn't come out or been tested yet, but looks pretty promising. It's high end on the budget spectrum though.
