[QUOTE="Bman940, post: 837409, member: 26379"] Depends on what your idea of longrange is? Some guys I shoot with think 200 yards is a stretch and well 300 is a hail mary. Right optics for the right job, so many choices. Being someone who works with Nikon I can tell you that I have used ALL of the M-223/P-223 scopes. I am currently shooting a P-223 3X x32 Carbine scope on my LMT 5.56 for competitions. It allows me to get on target quickly and has an excellent field of view. I am also a fan of the M-223 1-4 Point Blank Reticle which my son uses on his competition rifle. The 1x is a true 1x setting and the 4 lets you reach out to 200 yards without any adjustments. Zero at 100 and you about 1.5 in. low at 200 yards. The M-223 2-8 in either BDC or Rapid Action turret will give you the magnification to engage targets at 600 yards. I must admit, my older eyes do like at least 10 or 12 power for that kind of shooting and 16X makes 600 yards almost easy when using Nikon's M-Series reticles. I recently had the pleasure of going 10 for 10 at 500 yards using the new M-223 4-16 BDC 600 scope. Obviously a lot of good choices available to you, my suggestion is to look down as many tubes as you can and then buy the one that you feel will fit your needs the best. Make sure you check out Nikon's M-223 XR Ar Mount too. Built in 20 MOA .
