I put a Nikon M-223 4x16 x44mm on my AR.. never regretted it

Same here, but in consideration of its price point. At max zoom, there're aberrations.

there are endless choices.

i have found the nikon P-223 scopes to be overall fantastic value and quality. they provide excellent glass which means the limiting factor for accuracy is me.

I have PST 2.5-10x44's on two rifles. They're awesome scopes for the money.

I recently got a 3-12x44mm from a shop that is closing for a reasonable price for my next AR build. I have never been so confused on a purchase as I have been trying to figure out the difference between all the scopes out there, So when I saw something that looked to be a good deal I bought it.
Figured I had to set a baseline somewhere as I have never bought a scope before.
I'll post the specifics and what it is the next time I have it out...

Looking to replace my $89 scope on my Colt HBAR AR-15. Typically shoot at 100 and 200 yds with occasional 400 and 600 yds. Not sure I want to go for a $2500 Nightforce setup.

Is the scope sitting on a carry handle, or is this a flat top receiver??

1-6 or 1-8 acss gen 3 from primary arms

Vortex are good people. The only lifetime warranty (that I've found) in the scope business that does not have a clause like "lifetime, electronics limited to n years".

This is where I am at too. ACSS is the first really useful BDC reticle in a general purpose AR scope.
