Rifle Scopes Scope for AR10 Carbine

[skydiver]

I have a Armalite flat top AR10 carbine and I am looking for a CQ to medium range scope for this rifle.
I currently have a Savage 10FCP-K .308 with a SS 10X42 scope for long range and a Colt 6721 AR15 with a aimpoint red dot for CQ work so now I am looking to fill the gap with my AR10.
So what would you guys recommend for my AR10?
Thanks

What price range are you looking to spend?

Here are some I like.
IOR 1.5-8x, ELCAN Specter DR 1x / 4x or 1.5x / 6x, Swaro 1-6x.

I have a SB Short-Dot on my EMC. Allows CQB use with the dot turned on and set to 1.1X, and up to 4X I can engage targets at 750. At that distance its not easy but still workable on torso size targets. I have the 75GR Hornady turret on mine (used to be on a 556) and I have just enough elevation to get to 750. With XM80 Im at around 22 MOA down at 750, 11MOA at 500, and at 250 I usually adjust 2MOA down.

Still capable of accurate shots:

A 1-4x ShortDot on a AR10?
Your eyes must be much better than mine! I would want at least 10x to take advantage of the LR potential of the round.
I have a AR-10 chambered in .260 Rem coming and I plan to put a 3-15x PR on it. And, I'll be shooting it out to 1000+ though. So, I guess it depends upon your application.

If you're going to be using it for scoped, HeMan class 3-gun, I would think the new 1-8x ShortDot or 1-8x PR might be ideal. Price point question being pretty key as they're not cheap.
2 cents.

Re: Scope for AR10 Carbine

That would be a great match, the USO SN-3. Great scope.

NF 2.5-10x32 Mildot with zero-stop.

Very versatile scope without being cumbersome like the larger NXS on a carbine.

I went with NF 2.5-10x32 Mildot with zero-stop for the price it had the features of the other scopes except for the cqb feature of the S&B, but a grand cheaper.

I would recommend waiting for the new 1-4 HD Super Sniper with the circle reticule. I'm not sure when they will be out but I happen to have two prototypes setting here and they are going to be worth the wait. If your not familiar with them check out this thread. I'll be field testing next week on several rifles including a LMT MWS on steel targets to at least 600 yards maybe further. http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1738494&page=4

Re: Scope for AR10 Carbine

Meopta's 1-4 is another option. The new Tactical K-dot reticle should be out after the first of the year. Similar to the K-dot but with three chevrons instead of the vertical post. The one's I've had a chance to look through were impressive. Illumination was daylight visible too (like EoTech bright).
