Has anyone used the Millet Tactical scopes 4x16x50 with 30mm tube? Optics planet has these for $309 and I was thinking of picking one up for a build. I have lots of shooting experience and have owned a lot of scopes but never a tactical scope - ie, I know I can spend a small fortune and get the best thing since sliced bread, but that's not what I'm looking for here.
Thanks in advance. Brian |

My recommendation: You can get $30 off with the coupon code WSF1230 I don't trust Millett to track properly.

I have an LRS-1 on my 700 PSS .308 and it does goog, but my only peever is that the Mil-Dot reticle it has is heavy. It'll hold me until i can get a good deal on a Leupy Mk4. Can you explain what you mean when you say "...the Mil-Dot reticle it has is heavy" Do you mean the scope itself is heavy? Or are you refering to the cross-hairs/reticle in the glass getting thick at higher power?
Thanks KingOfTheBumps |

Quoted: Quoted: I don't trust Millett to track properly.[/span] Why not? Have you had a bad experience with one, or more than one? Thanks KingOfTheBumps Primarily threads I've read online. One poster stated his clicks were ~15% off. I have a LRS-1 sitting at home and I'll be doing to testing on it as soon as I'm back stateside. If it gives me issues I'll have Millett fix/replace it and then sell it for another Vortex. I have a PST 2.5-10 and Viper 6.5-20 I've been very happy with. I've also got one of the 5-15 HS models from midway, but I haven't had the opportunity to use it yet. |

Big heavy scope, fine for a bench gun but lug it around for a day and you'll want something lighter. Originally picked it up for a Mk12 build but changed it before first range trip because of size and put it on a 20" bull barrel bench gun.
Clear glass, fit and function fine, haven't spent a lot of time with other than 100 yd zero. |
