What is your budget?

Good question BC!

Build is done... Probably going to lock the thread if these guys keep at it. Lol

If your eye cant tell the difference what does it matter? Last I recall we all use our eyes to look through a scope. So now you admit you have no experience using these types of scopes in the applications they're meant for. Imagine that.

My position is bolstered by what people are actually using in competitions to shoot fast. They're able to keep up with red dot sights using 1x scopes so they can't be operating at a higher than 1x power otherwise they'd be slower. Doesn't require any crazy scientific testing, the proof is in the results of people actually out shooting. Maybe if you put the bolt action down and got out for a little shooting that's relevant to the subject you might learn somethin.

1x optics.
I reckon irons will do.

He got the scope a few days ago, I'm just having fun.

Awh come on. This is more fun than the normal "which rifle/pistol/tacticool gear" thread. This place needs to be livened up a bit. It's dead compared to what it used to be.

Cool. Glad you got it figured out.

Meh... This has been entertaining. Plus I am in the process of tricking out my Handi to shit all over yours bro... Lol. Got the T1 on it now, which is about to get stolen for my 9mm AR Build. Was hoping this thread would yield some good answers for my own optics dilemna for this rifle...

And here is with the TBAC Wearing the new Mirage Cover benenglish got me for Christmas.

The Swfa that he got is a pretty sweet little optic. Just about the lightest 1-4 out there with a nice reticle and decent turrets. Glass isn't quite as good as a PST but the reticle is better, lighter and cheaper. Too bad they're not going to be back in stock til march some time. I plan to pick one up when they get them. At 300 bucks there's nothing better for a cheaper optic.

I've often thought about getting one of the handis but I'd want to SBR it. They are scary quiet especially when shot with a pistol powder like trailboss or red dot. Much quieter than 1680, 4227 or Lil gun.

I got the HD glass... It's worth the money.

Any particular reason you didnt go ahead and go with the 1-6 then? I like my 1-6HD but will probably be putting it up for sale soon.

+$200.00 more, and I didn't see the need to get a higher magnification power for what I consider a short range tool. 4x should, theoretically, take me out to 400 yards, but I don't plan to use the 300blk handi rifle past 100yds. If the scope gets moved to an AR platform, I still consider that a short engagement tool, so it's still more than adequate at 4x max power.

Hey Steve.... How well do you like how the optic clears the hammer?

This is with medium height rings.

It clears, but if the rings were higher, I wouldn't be able to get a cheek weld.

They don't make a Handi Rifle in .45 Colt, do they? Couldn't find any info on one. 45-70 but no .45 Colt. (to pair with a pistol I have.)

 

[jrbfishn]

IIRC, they did make it in both. Not sure if they still do.
Efit; don't look like it.

I use the Nikon 300 BDC on mine. Its a great little scope.

Any more input on this one? Considering picking one up. or maybe one of the PA fixed power for 300 blk, either 2.5 or 4. Think I like this one better though.
