I just bought the Millet LRS-1 Millett Sights - Long Range Scope with .1mil click values. i'll throw up a hand-on review by next weekend but from what i read and what i gathered from people that use it, it's a great value for the cost.

Its what i know. Its what i was trained on. I carried the M24 and the M14EBR for a good part of two tours. Im pretty oblivious to anything else
I wanted .1 mildot click values and the mildot reticle so its fast and easy adjustments without having to do alot of math (if it was in 1/4" or MOA adjustments)
if I have to hold over 1, its 10 clicks. simple....
making the dope chart is easier as well (in my awkward brain)

ha! That would be nice though. Im looking more for something of the sub 450-500 range.
Ha this is wierd I just bought a Remington 700 sps tactical .308 w/ 1/10 Krieger barrel. I have about 800 to spend cause i gotta save also for some rings so I was wondering the same there Ghost. Alot of guys off snipers hide forum say try a SWFA SS as a good scope. But like previously stated great question Ghost. I too am interested.

Yeah, alot of the guys on snipers hide are real assholes too. Nothing but BS from most all of them. And from what i hear is that the SWFA SS is a great scope too, but I want a mil-dot reticle with the .1mil click adjustments. Much easier this way, and 1/4MOA adjustments dont like to configure in my brain
Hell yes!!!! You are right my friend that they are somewhat. I also agree with you on the mil-dot btw where u located Ghost? Why i ask is the high caliber gun show is this weekend at pasadena and im betting they might have some choices out there. But if u find something please let me know.

Yeah, thats what I'm finding out too. Mil/mil scopes are either around 300 or up to 1000. Me personally, Im only going to be shooting Hajji paper targets, from 200-1000 meters, so I'm kinda leaning towards the 300$ range, its just too much money for me to go out shooting once or twice a month. I would like to go hunting but dont know too many people that hunt or have land. I've only live in Austin for a little over a year, and texas for 5 years (4 of those were at Fort Hood and most of it was in Iraq) so there goes my urge for hunting.
