300yard and great visibility AR Scope 1x6

[LiquidGenome]

Hey all I'm new to the forum, been following for quite some time tho and decided to join. My question is I have a Daniel Defense DDM4V1 11.5" barrel and it has a Aimpoint Pro on it and I'm really finding it hard to shoot Anything past 100 yards. Maybe its my eyes hahaha. But I'm looking for a optic something like a 1x6 for it, something good quality for 1000$ or less. I been looking at Vortex but some of there good ones are 1800$ Canadian. Thanks for all the suggestions everyone.

You might get a leupold Vx 6 1-6 for about $900 U.S.
From Irun guns.
Should be a good optic.

Leupold VX.R 1-4 Patrol is a killer optic on AR's.

Primary arms 1-8, vortex strike eagle 1-6, sightron s tac 1-7. I'd be willing to try out any of those.

1.25x4 patrol? That's what I'm finding

 

[Brianma65]

I had a 1-7 stac, very nice glass but it's a big basterd, for a 1-7.

For a price point the Primary Arms looks good and I see good reviews on YouTube but as anyone on here have one and could give their thoughts on it 1-8

 

[nick237]

What about an Aimpoint 6x magnifier with an aimpoint. Could get the aim point and then the magnifier later

I have the Primary Arms 1-6 and it is excellent. For what you want I dont think you would need much more magnification than 6x.

Sightron STAC 1-7x24... might be what you are looking for.

Trijicon tr25 makes all the above scopes look like garbage.

Oops sorry. Didn't see your budget

I have a Aimpoint Pro on it now but the magnifier is soooo expensive and km worried that I won't get good clarity.

On an 11.5" barrel? I wouldn't bother. I'd upgrade to a longer barrel before splurging an a 6x optic.

No need for a longer barrel. Depending on your targets, but Fig11 and 12" gong are it 100% in the prone with DDMK18 wearing an Aimpoint PRO

OP: aimpoint 3X or 6X quickflip magnifier

Might be a bit out of your budget but worth considering. The Meopta R1 1-4x22 or the R2 1-6x24 are extremely well suited for your situation. Clarity is unbeatable.

I have a leupold 1.25x4 and I would never dream of shooting it at 300 meters. 100 meters is hard enough with the scope.

 

[Recce21]

Why?

I have regularly shot iron sights out to 500 and M8-4x's, FX-3 6x42's, and 4x ACOGs well past 600m and all were very accurate.

My eyes are not the greatest so that's why with a 11.5 barrel
