Swiss arms scope help

[lil_juiced_coupe]

Getting a Swiss arms in .223 and having trouble deciding on optics. I have a Burris 1.5-6 xtr on hold but finding people comparing them to brands that are half the price? I'm looking to spend about 1,000.00 and furthest I would be shooting is 200 yards.

What are peoples opinions on best bang for the buck?

I am going through the same debate with my SA, I am leaning to Elcan Specter DR.

Falcon 1.5-5x scope. I use these on my swiss rifles. The flat-top swiss rifle has Bauer AR15 rings. The rings cost $175.00++, but they are solid steel.

You just got one of the 1-4x Leupold Patrol scopes, right? I assume that's what you're PMing him about?

I'd really like to check one of those out as I've heard some good things about them.

OP, also consider a Vortex Viper (or Razor if you can spend a couple hundred extra). I currently have a Vortex Razor HD on my Swiss, and it's performing quite nicely.

Save up a little more dough and get an S&B Short Dot.
