So I just put a tasco 3-9 rifle scope on my 223 barrel-its gonna be my charlie/varmint killer. WOW--I LOVE IT!!! I was not happy at all with how far i had to stretch my arms with a pistol scope-just made for awkward in my opinion. I can get FULL FIELD OF VIEW all powers with this set up. I have a short brimmed hat and scope goes right to that so i know im safe. With 223 there is pretty much no recoil-I have a bipod and it just sorta jumps up a bit-not towards me at all. I am very tempted to get something for my 308 now-it currently has a 2-7x tc pistol scope on it but i the eer. 308 is not breaked though so I dont know how close I could get to that. I am an extreme beleiver that all smaller calibers should have riflescopes on them. THEY ARE AWESOME!!!!

I did some quick yesterday- I was averaging woodchuck size groups at 100 and 200 yds-- was using wolf ammo just to get rough site in idea. Then a case got stuck after about 15 shots. I never shoot real good groups-i need more practice though but it was definitely great with the riflescope

You are hooked now!! COOL!! Just a little something to tempt you. My 223 with a 16X scope does well.

i would recommend a scope with an A/O....adjustable objective....so you can adjust out parallax for best accuracy. i like the riflescopes on my rimfires and my 14" .223.
Kentucky….no place like home.

Good day I put a cheap 10X40 Tasco on my .243. I loved it for the first 30 shots or so and then couldn't keep the shots on paper. I returned it and put my Baush and Laumb 2X7 pistol scope back on until I buy a new rifle scope. Once you get used to them they are verry likeable. LOL

Enjoy your family and friends today as they may not be here tomorow.

I am using a rifle scope on my braked .260R Striker. With a Haolland Radial style brake I can get a full FOV.

Rod, too.
Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.

I have a rifle scope on my HSP 325 WSM & it kicks like a stiff legged mule (even with the brake). Knowing how far back from the scope you need to be takes practice at the range. ALWAYS & I mean ALWAYS !!! wear shooting eye-ware. Too close and you will have a nice scar on the eyebrow or worse. Is it worth it"" you bet"" I now use only rifle scopes on all of my HSP's nmhunter
