Burris RT-6 1-6x24mm on a 10/22 Takedown Lite

[theLBC]

just sharing in case anyone was considering an lpvo for their rifle.
was using the pa red dot for 5+ years, and worked fine for plinking, but not so great if you want to try tiny targets at distance as a challenge.

regular scope would not fit in the cases and backpack i have already, and i didn't want to lose the quick shooting of the red dot. lvpo seems like the solution over a red dot and magnifier.

watched some vids and read some reviews, asked people that have tried several models...and decided on the rt-6. couldn't justify the cost of better glass for something that is mostly used <100 yards. made in the phillipines.

Looks nice. I have a RT-6 on a RRA. I did have to send it back for repair once but seems good now. Turret came loose (whole turret at the base). Good glass for the price.

I have a similar setup on one of my PC Carbines... with a Nikon M 1-4. I opted for traditional rings and slammed that thing down as low as possible so the eye piece almost kisses the back of the receiver.

Sweet! I have a Leupold 1-4 on mine.

Consider a set of ultra low scope rings to keep the cheek weld nice. The high weld given by AR-height rings makes me much slower when shouldering at 1x magnification. I also kept slipping out of the eye box at higher magnification.

I used these:

Expensive but high quality.

You can do these in “30mm low” for a cheaper option of the same idea:

Both of those sets would move the scope lower end a tiny bit closer to the rear of the stock.

yep, the mount is higher than ideal, and doesn't need to be extended.
luckily the mount was a $20 throw in with the scope, so it may stay on there for a little while.

I plan on getting the PA 22lr LPVO in low rings.
