Post Options Thanks(0) QuoteReply Posted: September/22/2011 at 14:05Haven't used either, but a few observations.
1. I don't similar calibrated turrets unless they are printed with my data ( Kenton comes to heed.)
ii. I understand the rational for calibrating turrets and reticles to mil-specific ammo, but don't see why they offer a calibrated turret and a calibrated reticle. I would personally want either reticle or turret to be some mutual angular measure, mils or MOA.
three. The 35mm tubes have given IOR problems in the past. I understand most of those problems are backside them, simply I hesitate to buy their 35mm tubes.
4. The MP-eight reticle is among my favorites, cracking design, very useful.
5. IOR FFP scopes commonly tunnel at the lesser, that bugs me. Non sure if these exercise, only I would verify before buying - peculiarly if tunneling bugs you besides.
6. 12X with a 36mm objective makes for a scope all-time used in straight sunlight or not at max power.
I take owned many IORs over the years, liked about of them. I'd be OK with something calibrated on the scope, just would never buy that second iteration in that setup, even if I had a 308 and/or .223.
Purchase one and give u.s. a review.
What are you doing with the AR and/or FNAR? At that cost, it is very near the 2.5-10x32 Nightforce, which is a nice trivial scope.
Freedom is something you have.
Respect is something y'all earn.
Equality is something you lot whine nigh not being given.

They would both be more "zombie" guns than annihilation else.

Mail Options Thank you(0) QuoteReply Posted: September/22/2011 at fourteen:44My general advice for civilian ARs is as follows: a good 1-iv or Aimpoint, unless used for hunting.
In a "defend home and life" scenario, you own't taking 500 1000 shots, why scope with something built for engaging targets way out there? A zombie 500 yards away is not a threat (unless they are the "28 days later" zombies, and then you are screwed regardless of your range capabilities.)
My personal opinion: a 223-cal defense force AR is no place for a 2-12 or the likes. Quite often, too much telescopic is far worse than no telescopic at all.
Opinions vary.
Liberty is something yous take.
Respect is something you earn.
Equality is something yous whine most non being given.

The BDC turret is reasonably well calibrated for 168gr and 175gr and tin be hands enough adapted to 77gr SMK 223 rifles out to 600 yards.
Reliability wise, I am not aware of any particular problems with the ii-12x models (I used to own a 2-12x32). Higher magnification versions had some bug, but they seem to have been largely resolved.
2-12x36 has 3mm exit pupil at highest magnification which perfectly usable in broad daylight. In adept light yous'll desire to dial magnification down of class.

At a unmarried magnification, manifestly. Happens all the time. As you lot recall, I am find the concept of holdover reticles in SFP idiotic, but they are the rage these days, so I may be solitary on that.

I am pretty new to scopes and I've used more often than not iron sights. However I want to put a scope on my AR-15 and the two-12x36 seems similar an interesting choice, from what I've seen anyway information technology looks pretty compact given it's magnification range which is a plus.
Now it'south designed for .308 simply as far equally I empathise information technology, there's zip stopping you from finding out what each height setting corresponds to wit your rifle/ammo, right?
I do some IPSC shooting and but general shooting at targets almost of the time with my AR and I would exist interested in a scope that would be a good multi-tasker, the ane.5-8x model IOR has is also interesting, though from the FEW pictures you lot can find of a mounted Spartan, it looks like the 1.5-8x is almost as big so not sure if there's a point in going with that ane.
Anyhow I recollect a 2x lower might not be that large an issue, I was considering an ACOG TA-11 before I found out how hard they where to acquire when yous are in non in america (I am in Finland).

Anyway I call back a 2x lower might non be that big an event, I was considering an ACOG TA-11 earlier I found out how hard they where to acquire when you are in not in america (I am in Finland).
The turret on the 2-12x36 is indeed designed for the 308Win, but you can figure out what range the holdovers correspond to for any cartridge. The numbers on the turret might not match, but y'all tin can probably figure out a fashion to relabel them if yous are then inclined. If yous shoot heavy bullets in your IOR (mine likes the 77gr ones), so the BDC is actually pretty close especially if y'all sight in itnelligently.
Between the 1.five-8x26 and 2-12x36, the departure in weight is minor, but in terms of size the i.5-8x26 is a fair bit shorter and more compact.
Go along in mind that IOR at present too has a ane-10x26 and at that place is a simpler 1.25-10x26 coming that will make a nice alternative to the ane.v-8x

Yeah the offset one is as well costly for me, the latter one sounds interesting though, if they can become the toll downward.
TBH I would be happy with a i.25-6x or 8x equally long every bit they kept it in a small package, a 30mm tube would be nice.
