Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening
First post here. I’ve been sucking up all the info for a long time with out registering an account. I figured it was about time to dive in and start interacting.
Come tax return time I’ll be purchasing my first LPVO. I’ve been using red dots/eotechs until now and had a good amount of time behind the RCO/SDO while serving.
The platform will be a recce style rifle. 16 in S/S barrel. Geissele SSA-E. Not sure how specific I should get. I imagine most of you have a good idea from mentioning the word recce. I will most likely be using a 1.93 Geissele Mount for the sole fact that I prefer having my head more upright these days while shooting.
The primary use of this rifle will be pretty much training and banging steel from 25-450(ish?) yards. Id say I will spend the most time on 1X magnification (using it like a red dot) so a daylight bright reticle is preferred.
So far the scopes that have caught my interest are the Vortex Razor HD Genii E JM-1, Nightforce NX8, EOtech Vudu, Trijicon Accupower 1-8, and US Optics 1-6. Those are pretty much in my price range...however there are two scopes in a higher price bracket that I would be willing to save for if you guys really convince me they are worth it. The Khales, and Nightforce ATACR.
Not quite sure if I prefer a FFP or SFP because of inexperience in the magnified optics world.
Feed me any info you guys think I will benefit from. I am here to learn and utilize all the experience from the members here.
Thank you all ahead of time.
