Need your opinions on the Primary Arms scopes

[nicknuke7]

So I'm almost finished putting together my AR and I was looking for a good budget scope that gets the job done. I was looking at the Primary Arms scopes and was wondering which of you have used them or actually have them on your rifles? I have looked at other scopes, but would really like more info on these scopes in particular atm before I make my decision.

These were the two I was looking at:

Primary Arms 4-16X44 Illuminated Mil Dot Scope

Primary Arms 4-14X44 Mil Mil FFP Scope (out of stock atm of posting this)

https://www.primaryarms.com/Primary-Arms-4-14X44-FFP-Scope-p/pa4-14xffp.htm

I am aware of the differences between these two scopes (FFP, illumination, etc.) but which would be a better option?

48 five star reviews on the first scope. Looks good to me.

If you received the Cabela's coupon in the mail last week, I just picked up the Vortex DiamondBack 4-16 for 179.99. (it was on sale for 199)

Are going to be using your mils to range estimate or as BDC?

Probably not as a BDC. Why?

Primary Arms is gtg. Great service and great product for their price range. I have the 4-16x44 illuminated and absolutely love it for rifle. I don't have any complaints and especially not considering the price.

I used their new 1x6 on a recent hog hunt in Texas. Worked great during the day and really surprised me during the evening hunts. Gathered more light than I thought it would.

Was mounted on my 6.8. 4 shots 4 dead hogs!

I also own a few of their red dots too. No complaints on any of their products.

Because the 4-14 would be ideal if your using the mil system being its a FFP.

Does it have an etched recticle?

Does it have an etched recticle?

I know my 6x and 1-6x does. I think all their scopes do.

You can't go wrong with P.A. They have great customer service, great prices, and awesome products. No complaints here!
