any thoughts ?

Thanks in advance

It is the 1-6, I am asking 350 for the scope and mount or 250 for the scope only.

Now please forgive my lack of knowledge but at 5XX0 Armory they told me that there was no such thing as a 0- 6 scope , but i had just come from another gun shop
and looked at a Vortex that was 0- 6 , im confused , on the "0" setting it was just like looking through a iron sight no mag. School me please and thanks

It should be a 1-6. 1x is what you are thinking about. You take the image you see and multiply it by 1, still get the same image.

[Stu_Padaso]

thank you "J" tough math there lol , living up to my name i guess

There is zero reason that the folks down at 5280 couldn't have taken the 20 seconds to clear that up for you. They knew damn well what you were talking about.

If you want or need 1x on the bottom end, then a 2-7 is not really comparable. If just for plinking at the range and such, that is a decent choice. The Whiskey Optics from SIG have proven to be pretty good. I'd avoid the entire Strike Eagle line if you plan on shooting much past 200 or so. There are better choices in that space with better glass and less money.

i do like the scope , although my first attempt at sighting it was pretty pathetic. i was ready to go back to my romeo 5 and say too hell with it.
ill try it again ,this time do some research instead of Homer Simpsoning it . appreciate the input for sure thanks[Thanks]
