IPSC rifle set up

[maurice]

thinking of Open with dual optics. I just put an Eotech on,..but thinking something like a Burris 3x9,...with a Burris red dot mounted above the front ring mount,...
This would actually be a decent varmint set up I think as well,..but don't want to just set up for one...
BTW, the optics would be going on my XCR...full rail on top so mounting is not an issue. I actually figured if I mounted an Eotech way out front,...I could just turn it off and put the 3x9 on as I need it.

Have you given consideration to an ACOG with a Doctor Optic?

Good plan but not in IPSC. Chap 5, Page 9, Sec 5.1.7.

5.1.7 Competitors must use the same rifle and type of sights for all courses of fire in a match.

Interpretations: You can not add to or remove accessories from or to your rifle from stage to stage.

Use the EoTech FTS 3x or 4x magnifier on top of your EoTech WHS. This is my planned set up.. IF I can find an affordable FTS 3x (hint-hint... anybody want to sell one? ).

This would be the trick. Run a low power scope and a docter optic or something on this setup: http://www.jprifles.com/buy.php?item=MB-JPA

I've seen guys use the docter/acog setup and find it a little awkward.

I haven't tried out an eotech magnifier in a match but I think it would be slower and more failure prone than having than 2 dedicated optics.
