Aimpoint ACRO P-2

[DriftinG Z32]

Thanks to you and others for the insight.

I don’t think bullet weight matters either typically (I’m quoting you Wayne and saying this but speaking to posters above yours) but typically 115 gr is on the lighter / plinking / target ammo where 124 grain and 147 grain are probably not as much (Federal USPSA ammo aside).

I figured just ask the question.

While I respect your opinion, I can only speak on my results. I can tell you unequivocally that 115gr does not cycle reliably through my Gen5 34 with P-2 and 300U.

The problem is, what 115 gr have you used? As noted, the issue isn't the weight of the bullet, but how hot it is loaded, along with some of the more nuanced issues listed. There is a huge difference in, say, Blazer Brass 115 gr and Lawman 115 gr; the latter is a full 75 FPS faster than the former on spec sheets, while also costing more. With my comped gun running an ACRO P-1 (haven't tried it yet with a P-2), I definitely had issues with the Blazer Brass with every mag, while the Lawman cycled vigorously and had zero issues over thousands of rounds (same with the Fiocchi Shooting Dynamics 115 gr which on paper is also at 1200 FPS like the Lawman).

I’ll echo default.mp3 and ask what ammunition are you shooting?

I remember the Hk P30’s were the same way back when Todd was running the test. I do believe it was Blazer Ammunition.

ETA: I’m not saying your hiding anything or wrong - I’m just concerned and asked the clarifying question. I’m on a waiting list for one now and… I have a Glock 34 Gen 5 and Surefire 300U that it’s slated to go on ironically.

Finally, a common sense BUIS.

The optic was almost perfectly centered when mounted on the slide. It took only a few clicks in elevation and windage to zero it at 10/25yds. That's a good milling job by ATEI.

I ended up swapping the taller front sight for my standard height Ameriglo Operator, to yield my preferred BUIS setup: POI in center of optic when irons are aligned at bottom of window.

Sorry if this has been addressed already but anyone have real world experience with the battery life?

I believe I’m just shy (maybe 1.5-2 weeks) of a year right now with mine. Original battery still going strong bouncing back and forth between the top three settings.

I just checked the Duracell battery on my P2, that has been on continuously two clicks below max brightness since mid to late December. Battery tester says 20 percent so I will change the battery. Seems like acceptable battery life.

This was my post on May7.

Has anyone used the P2 for passive aiming?
Comparison to something like a Micro or AEMS for light transmossion?

Thinking about getting one for offset use on a rifle
