Rusty Gate Posted December 10, 2020 Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 Having a 280AI built & will have to source a suitable used scope.

gazzarM1 Posted December 10, 2020 Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 You need to have a budget in mind....second hand Nightforce etc around a grand not a bad starting point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popsbengo Posted December 10, 2020 Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 All depends on your budget. Any of the quality makes sell well second hand. You couldn't go far wrong with a Delta Stryker - excellent optics and build quality at a reasonable price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triffid Posted December 11, 2020 Report Share Posted December 11, 2020 There's a Sightron SIII 8-32 on sale here for £550, including mounts. I've got this model scope on my 6.5CM and I use it to great effect out to 1000 yards on Stickledown. I liked it so much I got a second one to put on my .308.

Triffid ^^this, I had one of these on my RPR (6.5CM) for a while and my son regularly shot out to 1000yards. In my opinion, for the money unbeatable.

topscots1 Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 I just pulled the trigger on the new delta javelin. Needing a scope for my 223 when my variation comes back. It was either that or the eotech VUDU the delta won out in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brown dog Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 The cyclops reviewer is technically spot-on, and I quite enjoy his enthusiastic quirky Southern style I'd have a dig through his reviews. This review led me to get this Element scope for .22 use ...I'd say it's about 85% of a 5-25 Schmidt for £2000 less. He also reviews the delta that Top Scots has mentioned, sounds even better, but £400 more: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topscots1 Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 I went with the delta. The deals on the eotech look good in optics warehouse. The delta review above made me go with the cheaper option. I have an element helix SFP sat there which is a great scope for the money. Don’t think you would go far wrong with an element.
