I am looking at replacing the optics on my primary rifle. I wanted to run this by you guys to see if I am missing anything.
Rifle: Remington 700 S/A .308.
The primary role is a Law Enforcement precision rifle. Secondary is long range target/tactical shooting (500-1000yards)
Requirements:
approximately 4-14x variable
FFP
Illuminated Mil Reticle
Durable
Exposed Turrets
For the purpose of this discussion lets assume that cost is not a limit. (although it probably will be).
I know I can have USO custom build me a SN-3 with all of these features. I am just wondering if there is anything else out there. If I have to sacrifice some of the top end power to get the other options, then so be it.
FFP and illuminated reticle are a priority. Many of the real world deployments for this rifle will be at night and NVD's are not an option right now.
The "Snipers Hide" IOR would be perfect if it was illuminated. The 2.5-10x42 FFP Illuminated IOR would be acceptable if I could get it with the exposed turrets on the other model. Has anyone had any experience with swapping turrets on the IOR's?
My Falcon is working well, but this rifle will be placed into service in the next couple months. I really don't feel comfortable with the Falcon as a duty optic yet and the lack of an illuminated reticle has caused problems in training.
