The post whore thread.

I am going to order the scope as soon as the wife isn't looking.

[bogie]

Right on! They are showing only one left in stock. Wondering if that is a marketing ploy... Better order soon just in case dude. Send her out shopping?

I've been looking at mounting options at LaRue. LT104 vs LT158. Not sure if I need the extra ten MOA or not. I'll probably add a magpul ACS stock. How's your cheek weld on your 308(s) with current setup?

get the 158. To steal a phrase from Hoser: Can't hurt. Might help.

if I was at home, I'd show you a picture of what it looks like to have a 40mm objective on an AR in that mount. Wait a sec... Maybe I can... Lemme go find one.

[TheBelly]

Well, nm. I guess photobucket app won't work here in Jolly Ole.

[TheBelly]

does that work?

[TheBelly]

Yep, excellent..... That's a Leupold MK4 LR/T 3.5-10x40 in an LT-158 (SPR-S) mount.

pay attention to the amount of space between the objective bell and the rails. The cheek weld is pretty comfortable. I've had no issues with this optic height. The optic centerline is roughly 3" above the bore line. That's an important bit of information if you use a ballistic solver to figure out what the gun is going to do.

FWIW, I also use this mount for a Bushnell 4-24x50 scope, and there's sill enough room for a scope cover on that optic. Lets see if I can wrangle up a picture......

[BuffCyclist]

Yup, pic is there Belly.

And I can't believe it. The scope that I couldn't sell locally for even as low as 60% retail price is now going to be sold on ebay more than retail (auction ends in 1hr). And I figured no one would bid on it because its Christmas and I'd end up losing money.

Here we go.....
