THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
Saw this advertised and looks like retail is $150 for the optic itself. I'm considering getting this plus an offset red dot later on. Was also considering a 1-4x option as well but this P-223 is tempting. Opinions on a fixed 3x?

A multiple optics setup will put you into Open Division which means you will be up against the fastest guns in the game.

I have a TA33, 3X Acog. It is a great optic but straight 3X is less than ideal for 3 gun. If you are setting the rifle up for 3 gun, a 1-4X scope is a better choice.
Never follow anyone shorter than you; they can walk under things that you can't.
