I found out about this and I think this would be a great scope for those who plan on doing EVERYTHING with one rifle. Check it : http://www.hi-luxoptics.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&Itemid=45
I too would love to hear some opinions about this.I found out about this and I think this would be a great scope for those who plan on doing EVERYTHING with one rifle. Check it : http://www.hi-luxoptics.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&Itemid=45
Thanks for linking me to a very affordable scope ($36 instead of $200-100), and especially to the rings, which as a noobie I wouldn't have known I needed.Here's something inexpensive to play with till you figure out what you really want.It ain't fancy,but it's clear,very lightweight,and small.In fact it's just about perfect for the XCR it's not too much magnification for close stuff,but has just enough to make descent hits to at least 250 yards.Maybe more depending on your vision

I used these rings with it,for an inexpensive setup it works nicely.The rings are quick detach,all steel for !

I was looking at HiLux a while back, but the reviews were that you could get a better scope for the money. I do really like the concept of this one though http://www.hi-luxoptics.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=28&Itemid=55 . Having adjustable markers built in that you can customize as your own BDC settings is very nice.I found out about this and I think this would be a great scope for those who plan on doing EVERYTHING with one rifle.

The Millet DMS-1 that Terra has is a 1-4 power that when I bought mine was $200 now I think they are between $200 and $225.I was looking at HiLux a while back, but the reviews were that you could get a better scope for the money.

That Millet that Terra has on her pinky might be worth looking at. I think it was fixed 6x and about 0.
If money were no object I'd have a couple of these http://www.usoptics.com/product.php?partnumber=MST-100 .
The eye relief on that scope I posted links for didn't seem to be unusually short.It all depends on how you mount the rifle,your cheekweld and where you place the optic on the rail.In other words,shoulder the rifle naturally,then position the scope to where it's suits you.The neat thing about the quick detach rings is that you can reposition the scope really easy,so it makes finding your perfect fit a little faster.As a beginner, won't it be uncomfortable to have to keep my eye very close to the scope to fire, or is it not a big deal?
Good point. I just ordered the NcStar last night.

If you were talking to me... according to UPS, it's expected to arrive on Monday. Of course, I still haven't received my XCR yet.Have you received and/or mounted your scope yet.If so how do you like it?
All my current friends already know about it. I'm a Free State Project mover.Taking the XCR to appleseed would be sweet,but even if you cant you should go anyway.You'll like it so much you'll want to go back,and then you take friends. ;D
