Title says it all. I have RRA Predator Pursuit upper with a 20" Natl. Match Bbl that is a peach to shoot. Currently it wears a Leupold Mark AR Mod 1 3-9.
While I love the gun, I am a little underwhelmed by the scope - particularly its magnification. This gun is purely built for paper punching so 9x high end magnification feels a little weak, particularly as I get out past 300 yards.
Currently looking into replacing the Leupold with 3-15x or comparable variable power scope. It's an RRA and I am not using this rifle for competition, so I don't want to spend a ton of money, but I am hoping a good value can be had in the sub-$1k range. I'm not in a rush so I am OK waiting around for a good deal to come by.
Not really sure if I feel strongly about FFP with this gun (seems unlikely I would need to worry about calculating bullet drop at less than full mag) but I am open to being convinced that I am wrong about this. Sort of seems like I can get better glass for the money if I settle for an SFP scope.
Top contenders right now are the Vortex Viper series as well as the SWFA SS 3-15, but open to any/all suggestions. Thanks!
