I know that there is a section for scopes, but i wanted to get everyone's opinion here....
What scope do you use and why do you think it is the best???

and I'm looking for a super-model, nympho girlfriend who likes to clean fish and reload ammo!

Seriously, doesn't SWFA brand a .50BMG scope that runs around $300? I have no idea if it is any good.

try a Bushnel elite 4200, Barret was putting the 3200 on their 50bmg's but I think the 4200 has better resolution and over 4" of eye relief. I have a NXS on my last 50 but it went on my 338rum and I think i will try a 4200 on my Ultralight50 22" thats on its way.

I have the Super-Sniper 20X on my AR-50. It is a good value for the $. Seemed to hold up ok on the AR-50, although I hear some have not been so lucky.

Now that being said, if you go over to Biggerhammer you will hear that the Nightforce NXS is the way to go. A while back I did buy one for my AR-10 and it is a wonderful peice of optics. You can clearly see the difference between a $300 scope and a $1500 scope when you compare them side by side. I would definately recommend the NXS. In this case you do get what you pay for.
