Experience with Primary Arms 5x Prism Scope

I've been running the 4x prism scope with the 7.62x39 reticle on my VZ58 and couldn't be happier for the combination of utility, size and price.
 
I have been looking at them as well. The 5x is about half an inch longer than the 4x. Wasn't sure if it would fit on a my VZ58 and not get casing ejected at it all day.
 
I bought one on a black Friday deal last year and have it mounted on my armalite. 308ar. Nice optic good clarity and have had no issues with it at 200rounds. The scope to base screws came loose after 10rounds so I loctited them and no issues since. Let me know if you have any specific questions.
 
The reticle is tiny. Much smaller than 7.62x39/300BO one. Not sure why.

Also eye relief and eye box is smaller. I think due to higher magnification.
 
Thanks for all the responses guys. Short eye relief is a concern, although I guess that's par for the course in optics such as this in the price range. I plan to use it for 100-200 yard shooting on an xcr in 556.
