My main dilemma at the moment is how cool the Block 2 looks with a SU-231.
Considering that my Block 2 is the longest FF barrel I've got, I can't justify to myself putting an unmagnified RDS on it when I've got several ACOGs and an ELCAN that could live on it. It's simply not practical to have magnified sights on SBRs and non-FF uppers while running an RDS on the most potentially accurate system I've got. Hmmm... maybe I'll just have to build another Block 2 upper... ~Augee |

I like the way the su231 looks on the blockII as well, but M opting for a "phased replacement" block 1.5 upper with su231 and 3x. |

I can justify 1600 for an nt4 but not for an elcan. Meh.

Augee why not get the 3x mag for the eotech?

ELCAN was easier for me to justify than the NT4, but I had the advantage of being able to "try before you buy" with an ELCAN.
I can and have used the ELCAN on issued weapons, and it's a practical "working" optic for me. Getting number two was... well, one is none... My NT4... well, yeah, I have it for training, HD, SHTF, yadda yadda yadda - but it's essentially a toy, the only time I've carried an NT4, it wasn't "mine." I have an Aimpoint 3x mag, and I tried an EOTech 3x mag in the past - and I don't really like them. I'm "rexploring" the concept with the Aimpoint 3x and LaRue flip mount I recently picked up, but in general, I didn't like running around with the magnifier sticking off to the side, light transmission and optical clarity is inferior, the range finding function is much less user friendly than ACOG or ELCAN reticules, and there's no BDC at all. My current experiment is to mount my SU-231s a little further forward, dump the rear BUIS, and keep the magnifier in a pouch and using the QD function to stick it on when I need it, since the whole FTS thing SUCKS (IMHO). Once the magnifier is installed - and maybe I've just been spoiled by short prism optics with great glass - but the optical quality is blurry, darker, and FOV leave very very much to be desired. ~Augee |

It's possible and not all that expensive. I had the eotech 552.308 with its BDC and the reticle was overly busy and I didn't cAre for it. Maybe tells normal BDC reticle will be better. I bought my can on a whim and honestly regret even starting the process. I don't need it and probably would've gone with a different can if I had put some real thought into it. |

The only thing worse than no BDC is a shitty BDC, IMHO.
I'm a huge EOTech fan because I find the big circle / little dot reticule to be intuitive and quick. I find the EOTechs with BDCs to be busy and completely useless. You have no way of judging range by them (ACOG and ELCAN reticules can be used to "choke" or "bracket" a target using the stadia lines) and just look like the reticule is crying. The Brownell's "T-Dot" looks like it would be even worse... and dear lord, a biohazard reticule?! ~Augee |

I have a feeling all of their BDC reticles might feel too busy. Need to try one out. I only am getting the 3x because the deal was too good not too. I'll be using my rifle mostly non-magnified |

The dot isnt magnified its still a 1moa dot at a 100yrd target
|

So is the EXPS3-0 definitely replacing the 553? I really like the looks of the 553 vs the EXPS line a lot more.

What would happen if you stacked a magnifier in front of your optic?
Srs question tho... |

I'll have to check again with my EOTech, but IIRC, the magnifier makes the dot bigger, it magnifies everything in the picture - but it doesn't increase the relative size of the dot - i.e. it still covers 1 MOA, 1 MOA is just 3x bigger than it used to be.
As for putting the magnifier in front of the optic, besides the fact that it would probably be awfully unwieldy looking through a parallax free red dot into a scope tube - I doubt that magnifiers are properly set up as "shoot through" magnifiers - you wouldn't be able to hold the same zero - much like mounting an NVD ahead of, rather than behind an optic. CNVDs designed to be placed in front of optics are far more complex and far more expensive than standard NVDs. I think behind is the right place for the magnifier if you're going to use one. ~Augee |

It just doesn't work for me. YMMV. Keep in mind, I live in the Aimpoint World where we have 2, 3.4 and 4 MOA dots |

Its the internet and you dont know me as I dont know you. Speaking for myself, I have a fair amount of shooting/training experience and since the dot and the target are equaly magnified, for me there is no increase in precision at 300 meters using a magnifier. Maybe its due to my slight astigmatism. Maybe the magnification exacerbates that astigmatism. All I know is in my experience the magnifier provides no precision advantage and has an ergonomic penalty. Thats my experience. I did not discount your experience yet I feel you tried to discount mine. Lets agree to disagree or better yet accept we're different and can have different results that can be equally valid. |

Its the internet and you dont know me as I dont know you. Speaking for myself, I have a fair amount of shooting/training experience and since the dot and the target are equaly magnified, for me there is no increase in precision at 300 meters using a magnifier. Maybe its due to my slight astigmatism. Maybe the magnification exacerbates that astigmatism. All I know is in my experience the magnifier provides no precision advantage and has an ergonomic penalty. Thats my experience. I did not discount your experience yet I feel you tried to discount mine. Lets agree to disagree or better yet accept we're different and can have different results that can be equally valid. wow grown men acting like children on the internet again...shocker. maybe you should just buy each other breakfast and call it even. different stuff works for different people, or at the very least some have a greater disposable income, end of story |
