How do you like it. I am looking for something affordable for my low budget. The 2X isn't out of the question but I like the reticle on the 5x. I am in my mid 50s so the magnification is a plus.

I have it. Haven't had much range time with it but the quality is really good. Clean glass, and the illumination is nice but not needed during the day. Won't be hitting dimes at 100 yards since its 5x.

I have the fixed 6x (out of production), 1-6x, and the 2.5x prism...all are great optics.
The 2.5x is great for us with "old" eyes, its almost like using a red dot, but clearer. 
The 5x is a great option if you don't want to spend the extra $$$ on the ACSS 4x Acog. Its a solid optic, well worth the price, especially with the excellent Primary Arms customer service.

PA has/had some blemished versions on the e of bay for sale. Picked one up on a whim. Have yet to find the blemish.
Hard to go wrong at that price point. |

'primaryarms' all one word.
You may have to set up a notification to watch for them coming up again or other 'blems' from their product line. |

No experience with the 5x, but purchased a 3x in 2011 i think it was and it has been flawless since. It sits on top of my Wife's rifle.
Last time we shot it, I want to say it was shooting just about 1- 1.5 MOA at 100 yards. At that time this scope cost 180.00 Definitely paid for itself in performance. |

A quick search came up with the same reticle on the 3X as the 5X. cool

If They could source a 3x or 4x that looked like an Elcan, I'd be all over it lol |

Dimitri posted a pic of one of the crew (female) shooting with the 3x prototype on their facebook page a while back. That was the only one I saw, said next year likely.
It will have a longer eye relief than the 2.5x, which will be an improvement. The short eye relief is my only complaint on the 2.5x...I have to collapse the stock a bit, but it works. |
