The place for general talk about gun, shooting, loading, camping, survival, and preparedness related tools and gear, as well as gear technology discussion, gear reviews, and gear specific "range reports" (all other types of gear should be on the back porch).

Acog

Post by Rich Jordan »

I picked up a 3x30 Acog on an Amazon bargain, with the chevron .308 reticle. This is my first and only Acog and it is sitting on my LaRue .308 Ultimate Upper rifle; I shot with it for the fist time yesterday.

The reticle is tiny! compared to a normal scope and I'm having issues getting it positioned such that I can get a clear view straight down the sight with a proper cheek weld. That said it was usable and accurate at a 75 yard indoor range once I switched from sight-in diamond targets to bullseyes; the chevron made it hard to center in the diamond at 75 yards but a round bull worked fine.

I may try a riser, though I don't want to, to see if I can get that clear straight through view.

Of course these are minute of goblin sights, not target...
