[ARCHIVED THREAD] - TA01B(.308 reticle) ACOG Question?

Posted: 10/25/2004 5:15:21 PM EDT

Hey guys,

Does the TA01B have enough REAL eye relief to be used properly on a 7.62mm rifle such as an HK-91? I know the TA11C would be the best choice as I used to own one but was STUPID and sold it a few years ago. I really don't need BAC, so the TA01B would fill my needs if eye relief were not a problem. Any input would be great!! TIA.

Come on guys, I really need your expert help here? I'd like to go with the TA01B because it has the range stadia and will be going on a gun that can "reach out and touch". I don't need BAC but may end up going with a comp. ACOG if eye relif is going to be a problem on the TA01B. I'd love to have another TA11C again but funds won't permit it. Please help me out!!

Scopes mounted to HK's are pretty high, I seriously doubt the BDC reticle would work well. Not to mention the eye relief is short for a 308.

The height was the main reason I sold my TA11C when it was mounted on a ARMS claw mount. I now have a ultra low profile mount that only sits about 1/8 above the reciever. That said, do you still think that the eye relief is too short to be useable on the HK-91? Thanks NEW-ARGUY!!

hard for me to really say definitively. I've never used the .308 versions of the 4x AOCGs. I think it would be too little eye relief, but that is a total guess.

Thanks new arguy!! I guess it's going to have to be another TA11 or maybe a compact ACOG--would the 2x20 comp. ACOG work alright?

I had a TA01B on a FAL and I kept getting hit in the eye (safety glasses) from the recoil. I got rid of it and went with the TA11 and that solved the problem. If you have a choice, go with the TA11.

Thanks Guys,

Guess I'll just have to get a TA11E or Comp. ACOG.
