I guess I’m more inclined to go after which ever one is more forgiving at high/max magnification. Side note, we know the Rangers use the EBR-7F reticle, what about NSW? The downside to the EBR-7F reticle is that it's BDC based, so unless you're shooting 855A1 or whatever it's calibrated for, it won't line up. The standard JM-1 and MRAD reticles are trash if you hold for elevation or windage, really anything other than point-and-shoot. |

Hot 5.56 will come close to most BDCs as it is though. |

So what’s everyone’s preference for T2 mount on your URGI? I’ve got this Scalar mount and a spare Laure LT600 and can’t decide which one I like Better! I’m thinking the Lt660 is “more correct”? So what are you running your T2 on? *unity is way to high for me, so that’s out for me.

Not as tall as the Unity, and I had no problem getting a pvs14 behind the optic when I had them. I went Unity last year, never going back.

That’s my problem with the 660, the eotech magnifier I have Doesn’t line up. It’s “useable” but looks off. The 1.54 scalar works lines up nicely I might Give the unity a try if I can Find it used cheap but I think I’m sticking with the scalar works for now. Anyone ever have any issues with them? It seems solid but I get The impression the LT660 can take a bomb going off for it to fail Pic just because

I didn't feel too confident on the mounting systems, seeing as I couldn't get a specified torque on the screw. That's just my take on it and I'm sure it's a good mount seeing a lot of people have been using them. |

It looks like the location of the mount has the forward clamp sitting above the rail, not the receiver. |

My assumption was the kit being 07-077-07308 with a gas tube and pin, which (in my opinion) should come standard with most barrels. I was building my upper and got bummed out when I found out I needed a gas tube. |
