| Ok, I know that Vortex states that the BDC is calibrated for 5.56mm. But, I think this would be a good optic for a .308 AR. Surely I can't be the only one to think this? I'm curious if the BDC is even close with M80 ammo. |

You could certainly run the ballistics on any round and firearm that will be utilized and come up with a dope sheet that would work using the reticle pretty well. For example on a 22in AR shooting m80 ball ammo and a 100 yard zero the reticle will be as follows: 1st hash - 210yds 2nd - 335yds 3rd - 465yds 4th - 605 yds. MOA Values: 1st hash - 2 2nd - 5.2 3rd - 9.4 4th - 14.6 Feel free to give us a shout as well at 1-800-4VORTEX ext 1 and we'd be happy to run through any other reticles or ballistic data if you'd like. |

| I just replaced my PA 5x with the Vortex one because I just cannot get into the chevron. It is on my SCAR 17 right now but I have not doped it out more than 25-200m but I like it so far. Wish the adjustments were a little finer is my only complaint. |
