Looking to put an optic on my SCAR 17/H.

I am thinking on the lines of a 1 to 4 power, but I am open to any thing.

I looked at the Burris XTR.  But its BGC reticle is for 5.56/.223.

Will the XTR work well with 7.62/.308 or does anyone have any recommendations?

Intended use is for a short to mid range combat/heavy 3 gun rifle.

Thanks

I'm thinking hard about one of these.

Also, as far as reticles go, I've had good luck using 556 reticles and 147-50 grain 7.62.

I have a Leupold 1.5x5 MRT M2 on mine and love it.

I put a Leupy MK 4 MR/T M2 on my 17 as well.  It's an outstanding optic!

Thats what will be going on mine. I'll leave the 1-4x's for the 5.56's........7.62 deserves some more intimate glass
