Millett 6-25X56mm was created by SOC

Using this until I can swing the Nightforce ATACR

1/4 moa clicks

Mil-Dot

Side focus

35mm tube

4" sunshade

Lenscaps

Reviews are mostly good but when this scope fails it is catastrophic and getting a replacement a pain. Most failures from use are for calibers beyond 338 Lapua.

I'll add more as I burn up my stock of factory 300 RSAUM ammo.

I'll see how it tracks and how accurate the Mil-Dots are with purpose made targets.

If you have or have used this scope please let me know what you think.

Shot 60 rounds in the AR10-TU with the scope mounted. Spent 20 rounds before I realized my scope rings were only hand tight. Luckily I had the proper bits and a bubble level on hand.

Other than user error scope worked flawlessly.

Anyone know a good target to use to check turret tracking?

One I can print from online would be really handy.

See the 6mmbr link in the tech notes I posted in the member forum.
About half way down are a few for checking scopes

Ok........IMO, that's $250 that could have been put toward a QUALITY optic that you would keep.

Either $250 now and have a rifle system I can start shooting or wait another year while I save for a Night Force.

And it's money I'll get back when I list it on Ebay.

I'm not saying your way is wrong, just stating they way I have learned to build projects.
My last AR10 took almost a year and a half to complete.
