I just got in a couple of the Strike Eagle 1-8s and I am really enjoying the reticle on them.  They're about the same size as a Razor 1-6 and about $1000 less

Also half a pound lighter.

Any particular reason you have so many rifles in a similar configuration?

I'll give that a look. Thanks for the suggestion. Had my eye on the Trijicon 1-8 Accupower but, wasn't really trying to spend that much.

In case a client wants to try out a certain scope/rifle combo.  Different reticles and barrel lengths.

And I firmly believe 1 is none.  2 is 1.  6?  A good start....

You're quite welcome.  I like the Trij 1-8 because it's reticle is very similar to a Viper PST (Gen1).  I know this sounds like nitpicking, but I think a 34mm body for a 1-8 is too much.  30mm is fine to me.

Because "they're all a little different" and "they're all cool as fuck" aren't enough reasons?

1-8 Vortex Strike Eagle in an ADM mount. This is my first adm mount. I've been a Larue guy for years and I have to say I really like the mount. Hate how bulky the rings are but that's a small knit pick for the large price difference.

Recently got in a Strike Eagle 1-8x for one of my MR's as well. I like it thus far just from initial impressions. Was gonna break it in at the range today, but didn't make it out. Just stole it at a flat $300 bucks factory brand new and shipped, too.

Thank you Sir! I had a lot of fun with it with a T1 mounted but then put the Bushnell 1X6.5 and had a blast!

I had a chance to shoot it out 500 lately on half sized IPSC steel. I thought that it might be a bit lacking but was really surprised how well it did. I shot good ammo so that helped(BH MK262).

I am glad I dove off into the Mini Reece pool. It is quickly becoming my favorite rifle. Really handy unsuppressed or suppressed.

Thank you! I have become a bit of a suppressor junkie. Once you have the chance to shoot them that way it is hard to go back.

That's a beautiful build! With the current/numerous offerings of braces skewing the line between SBR and pistol, I think I can speak for us all in saying that differences are irrelevant as is SBR legislation. However, the OP clearly states that this thread is for non-pistol shot barreled rifles.
