I just finished assembling what I am calling my "precision AR" and needed to get some glass on it to test it out.  I may upgrade in the future, but in the meantime I just picked up one of these from Optics Planet and am awaiting delivery.

Bushnell AR Optics 3-12X

I also ordered a Burris PEPR to mount it.

I was just wondering if anybody here had some experience with it.  I had read some good reviews on different websites so I figured I would give it a try and its not that big of a risk at around $200 for the scope/mount combo (with the 10% fathers day sale).

The range I shoot out maxes out at 200 yards but will probably do most of my shooting at 100 yards.

I know its kinda late since I already ordered it, but I thought I would ask here to see if anybody is using this scope or one of the similar models.

its pretty much overkill for 200 and under.


that said, see my username.





I have a 6-16x50 on my AR and all I shoot is less than 200. its nice being able to use it as a spotting scope too.

Honestly, that's why I got the 3-12 over the 3-9 .  I figured I can use it to spot!  LOL.

Where in PA are you?

I have the 1-4x AR Optics from Bushnell and have liked it a lot so far. I also have the Pepr mount....had to use some blue locktite on the ring screws because they'd loosen over time. Other than that I have really liked the combo. It has held its zero very well having it on and off a dozen times or more. Adjustments were accurate and it tracks well.

Just got it today.  Initial impressions are good.  Hopefully will make it out this weekend.
