Tactical carbine scope recommendations

[Outcast]

Folks
Looking for some suggestions on a tactical carbine optic for my XCR 7.62x39
I have always run a straight red dot optic but I'm looking at getting a 1-4 optic to make the rifle a little more versatile.

I want to be able to utilize the optic for cqb and out to 500 yards.
I was looking at the Weaver Tactical 1-5 X 24Mm Illuminated Intermediate Range Scope but it's got a hefty price tag.

Looking for any input on what guys are running on their carbines which fits the bill of what I'm looking for.
Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks.

This must be the 4th or 5th optic request for a semi-auto thread this wknd. lol

Wolverine carries a Hi Lux 1-4x with BDC reticle for 7.62x39.

It's all about being consistent.
I like that. Would love to hear if someone is running one of these and how versatile it is. Looks good and the price tag is good.

Have anyone heard of Hawk 1x6 x28 compact?

Daft thing to scope a carbine, but what's your budget?

I have a couple of the Millet 1x4 scopes. I find the reticle is very good (fast) for CQB, and the tiny dot is very good for long range shooting. Natches was selling them for around $225.

The new Bushell AR 1 x4 for $199 (Sponsor) looks good, too. I have used the Bushnel lifetime Warranty twice and is was very good and fast.

500m is a big ask for anything you also use for CQB... maybe some big glass atop and an offset RDS is in order?

It's also a big ask for x39... 124 inch drop at that range... Over double the drop of a .223!

Depends on the level of accuracy the op is looking for. Significant "drop" or rather a pronounced parabola isn't an issue, its more bucking the wind and accurate range estimation that will cause greater error.

I have a burris mtac 1-4 on one of my rifles.
Ive used it out to 225 yards or so at my range and it's easy out to there. Has compensation out way farther but I haven't tried that far.
