I also want to swap out the optic down the road. Currently running the SLx 1-6 Nova, which I absolutely love, but with the PLxC 1-8 Nova being released, I'm very intrigued with that offering. Or even just swapping out for a standard PLxC. Would like something of better quality to match the other components of the rifle. If I go with the standard PLxC, I'll probably toss a top mounted red dot on as well. Slowly trying to get this rifle exactly how I want it. View Quote If you are thinking top dot, keep a 1.5 scope height, a top dot on a 1.70 gets funky, and gets retarded on a 1.93. |

Worth the effort!!! Lol |

It might just be the lighting though. ![]() |
