Ok. Noob question. This optic still needs a mount correct? So if mounting it on a picatinny flat rail on top, what options do I have? And what is the pertinent things I should be looking for?

Any 30mm ring set will do or any mount that can accept a 30mm tube.

We have the Primary Arms Basic mount which will work, or we also have Seekins Precision 30mm Rings in various heights.

i like the Quick Detach ones because you can swap it on/off for other options or irons if you have. The better ones will hold zero (or pretty damn close) but they are pricey. I used the Burris P.E.P.R. with quick detach and it was perfect to switch from scope to aimpoint on my AR

Thank you for the suggestion. This seems like a good optic. Having difficulty getting my head around this tho. Does anyone know a good link with background on setting these up and comparing why people buy the high end series? I guess the comparable vortex is the strike eagle. But there are the higher end HD and platinum series.

So the reticle is set up for 556 or 308 - anything in the pipeline for 7.62 x39?

I know the 1-6x variant is set up for 7.62 x39 but would like the extra magnification this offers

How would the BDC marks work if this were used on 7.62 x39? I assume they'd be waaay out and unusable?

Unfortunately there is no info about a 1-8x for 7.63x39

So how are these holding out? Many returns? I know the 1-8x haven't been out long but what about the 1-6x?

[ctcs]

The 1-6 and 1-8s are holding up very well. None of the 1-8s have come back.

I'll have to check our RMA data, but i'm pretty sure none of our 1-6s have come back either.

The higher end Primary Arms scopes have better glass, first focal plane and some small improvements like shut-off settings between illumination levels on the controls.

For some folks, good glass and FFP are worth the money.

We do not have a source for these.
