Was only asking because I was messing around on istrelok and the BDC matches almost perfect for my 11.5 with my 55gr load out to 400 even the windage hash marks line up at 5mph and 10mph. I usuallly hate capped turrets and BDC. But for the price and the looks of it I kind of want one. http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/b510/cwm556/1D395851-EEFB-4BF8-B180-7E98883E7AC4_zps6aj90hrq.png For paper punching or social work? |

Because of this thread, a red dot on anything with a 8.5 inch barrel or longer Is starting to look a little silly to me.
I took my MK 4 off my mini recce and put the Aimpoint T2 on it for an upcoming range trip this weekend. It looks/feels weird to me now. Looks like a lot of space up top is not being capitalized on and feels like a lot of capability has been lost. I got so used to having a scope on this 10.5 inch upper that I'm probably going to dedicate the T2 to the MP5 PDW soon. I have a sickness...and the only cure is mini recce. |

Anyone have experience with the ADM Scout mounts? I'm looking at the Scout-X 30mm in particular, which is the same as the Recon-X only a little lighter and a lot cheaper with a single QD clamp mounted in the center vs. two QD latches at either end. I'm not the type to beat the piss out of my gear but I will probably use it in some upcoming training classes.
Should I fear having only one latch? |

well, @mhbaker81 here's one I haven't posted in this thread yet:
I've been hesitant to post it because it's more mod 0 than recce (not sure if it fits the bill). SBR and variable optic are there. |

Hey dudes, being a "regular 16" recce" guy I am intrigued by this thread. I've never bothered using variable optics on anything shorter than 16 so ive run red dots on every shorter rifle, but school me on your ballistic findings. What kind of bullet-drop are you getting when you push a 10.3 or 11.5 out to say 500yds? Although making hits vs fragmentation speeds/lethal wound channels is another topic, are you able to judge wind and compensate enough to make some consistent hits at longer ranges when the bullet is going significantly slower?

I was shooting at 450 about 3 weeks ago with a 10.5" pistol wearing a Mark AR Mod 1 with the Firedot SPR, and my biggest challenge was A) limited magnification and B) thickness of the crosshairs. I still made consistent hits on a 12" target, but groups were ugly as fuck. |

Scored me a PRI handguard with the 15% sale going on. I'm going to take off the FSB on my 12.5 and run the AEM5 on it. Kahles 1-6 will top it off for a 12.5 Holland-ish mini recce.

Anyone have experience with the TR25 and the MOA Dot reticle? Was playing around with Strelok and found that it matches damn perfect with all the normal loads out of my 14.5".

I have tried so many configurations, hoping to assemble a jack of all trades rifle to cover 0-400ish yards and maybe this one will fit the bill. I am back and forth on the bipod, it seems to add a bit too much bulk considering the purpose of this rifle. I just got it together last night, so hopefully I can get out to the range this weekend to see how it shoots. 12" Larue Stealth Barrel SLR Adj gas block 11" SLR Solo Saker K Steiner P4xi magpul furniture I am really liking the Steiner reticle, it seems to match up about as well as I could hope for. however, it is hard to find much data on velocity from a 12" barrel, anyone have good data for 55gr loads out of this length.

Playing around with adding a variable to the 11.5" The rifle definitely needs some spray paint, and I'm running irons currently.
If I got variable on this one its gonna be a one 1-6, 1-8. Kinda looking at the Strike Eagle and PA 1-8. Any other decent options that don't need require taking out a mortage?
