Optics Question

[Sigo]

I have been looking at a Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6x24. I was looking at it for my AR, but have been thinking about slapping one on my M1A. Has anyone tried that? How'd it do?

I second that question! I've been considering one of these as well. Would love to hear about clarity at 6x

Can't speak for the Strike Eagle
But I have a Leupold VX Hog 1.5 on my 450 Bushmaster and it is awesome!!
Only a 4 power but for where I hunt it's. Ore than I need
And it has the ballistic plex

So I would hesitate for a second to buy it
You'll be happy with it

Thanks. That is another choice. My eyes are getting old, so I might need that extra 2x though...

Thanks, Viper. I will look at it. My eyes are getting old, so I might need that extra 2x though...

I have one. It's a lot bigger and heavier than I would have expected. I still don't much care for the reticle, but the glass is pretty clear. I do like that it's 1-6 which is the whole reason I bought it. I don't think I'll buy another one though, it's just a shame to make a light rifle heavy and bulky. Probably ok on somethign bigger than an AR.

its not bad glass for what you pay for, you might want to hold out for the new PST Gen2s that are coming out though.
