Locally we'll be having 3 gun matches 3-4 times a year now, yay!
I'll be competing in TO division and have both pistol and shotgun covered and have an AR, currently without sights on it.
As of right now I'm trying to pick a 1-?. How much I am willing to spend depends on a few things but let's say I can consider a $1500 scope, used or new, but would rather spend as little as possible/???. Our range only has 200Y as the farthest distance, the thing is for me is my eyes aren't the best so I might need to take advantage of 8x to help self spot. I used a RD in our first match and had trouble seeing where I missed when shooting at the farthest small steel. Well, using a PS 90 in the wind didn't help at that distance either, but it was a fun try, lol, so lesson learned! I had to try it once at least!!!
If you've used a 1-? for 3 gun on the paper stages that didn't have daylight bright illume, did you feel like you were hindered or at a disadvantage at all, is it a top priority a bright dot?
One other consideration is I'll be using this AR with the new scope out to 800Y on occasion.
I briefly owned a Athlon Midas 1-6x24. Just wish it had had 8x and daylight bright illume, otherwise I liked it a lot, it's a $529 MAP scope.
If you would please recommend what scopes you like, but for sure what you like or don't like about it, or other 1-?'s you've tried.
