    Primary Arms 3X Compact Scope

    What is the realistic range for this scope? Anyone have any personal experience using this on a AR15?

    I'm lookin hard at this scope also...I'm thinkin realistic range should be 500yards which is perfect for the 16" m4 question is what round are the calibrating this thing to is it m193 or m855 anyone??

    Of course your not gonna shoot fer 1moa groups at 500, but I shoot standing or prone so SUPER magnifacation is kinda pointless for me. Anyone know which ammo this is set up for?? HOPE ITS M193!!

      Scroll down for reticle info.

      I've shot with one a few times and honestly i'm just not that impressed. It's nice for what it is, but the glass isn't very clear and they could have done better with the reticle. It could be that I've been spoiled by the ACOG, and I shouldn't compare it to that, but it's hard not to.
      BTW, you can get the exact same thing much cheaper from Primaryarms.

      Edit: Heh. I thought you were asking about the Burris version

        I am considering this scope as well. From reviews I have read it sounds like a winner. I am just going back and forth on whether it is enough magnification for me or not. I really don't want a full sized scope.

          Zero at 100 and the BDC will be good with M193 out to 600.

                      I have shot the 3x out to 600 and can tell you it works knowing where the round is going to go is a big help to me. I like the big ring for fast acquisition.
                      I am using M193 and M855
                      There are sniper everywhere and nowhere.....who knows what is out there.

                        Anxiously waiting for the 3x. Will the tall fts mount be available as a package too?

                          I believe it comes with standard base mount and when taken off will fit an AR carry handle
