What distance (range) can I expect with this scope on an AR15 M4 16" barrel ( 1/9 twist) and maintain groupings inside of 3" diameter?

if you are using the M4 223 cal you can go out as far as 350 to 400 meters, anything past that is luck or you are a great shooter. I have them on mind and for the bucks they are worth the money. hope that help.

the scope will take u out as far as the gun can shoot-- moa is more about the shooter than equipment-- now a good trigger or sight helps alot-- as far as the red dot-- i never intended to use it over 50 yrds - just quick acquisition-- i like mine-- just make sure u turn ur red dot off or ull loose ur power lol-- i bought one for saiga and another for ar15-- hope u have fun with urs

Depends on your setup but im pegging 3" groupings around 300 to 350ish yards with it on my core 15 5.56 depends also on if your piston driven or not. The red dot I find to be more for looks than functionality they way its mounted you cant really get a good view because the eye relief on the main scope is around 1.5" to 2" so ive got it locked in right at the back of my rail and the red dot is just to close but it dose function and it does hold zero even with 500+ rounds I've had no issues.

The range by me is only 200 yards and with my ar I was able to group them just fine in a 2" diameter. There is a bullet drop compensator that allows for up to 500 yards but I don't have a range near me with that kind of distance

I could never get scope to zero nor could any of my shooting buddies. Sent back second one was the same thing plus red dot fell off while shooting wouldnt stay on after that. Bought a nikon which I love. NCstar sitting on counter cant selll it cause its junk so just leave it there.

3 3/8 ths. I mounted a Nikon Prostaff BDC reticle hunting scope on my AR. FIT was fine and the mount is rock solid. 150+ round to sight in scope and iron sights in, plus deer hunting rounds. Mount worked flawless. Deer hunting season, wet, cold banged around the scope rock solid. No problems with this mount and would recommend it with no problems, well worth the money. Hoped this helped with your question.

Sorry, only have on my .308 x 20" barrel. I do have 2 AR-15s with 16" and 20" barrels. I mounted Nikon M-223 on both and zeroed each @ 100 yds. without any problem.

i'd say so, the radius on a 3/4 barrel should be about the same as stock barrel

I have two of these. One mounted on a S&W; M&P; 10 (.308) that I've swapped the flash suppressor out for a muzzle brake. Has 18" barrel. Normally shoot Sierra 168 grain HPBTs in hand loads. Last outing I was getting sub-moa results. Have the other mounted on Armalite AR-31 (.308) with 24" barrel. Have shot better than 1/2 moa with the same hand loads. I never worry about the BDC feature since that is pretty dependent on using specific factory ammo. I can wing it on longer shots pretty easily. Great scopes.

I have 40mm on rail with this mount on AR. Front of scope has 15 mm clearance from bottom of scope to forearm, at the back end, 4 mm clearance between the variable adjusting knob and flip up peep hole site in the down position .

Shawn I just got this scope last week but I haven't gone out to fire it yet. There is an adjustment knob that you can turn to sharpen objects further away but I've only done that in my house to about 15 yards, as I just wanted a scope to shoot bottles of water at about 20 yards, so it will be perfect for that. I haven't tried to focus it further yet to see it's limitations. On the box it says PM 4x32 CB so 4x32 ... If I wanted to use my AR for hunting or longer range I'd put my Nikon BDC recticle on it :-)

Well it depends how far are you shooting in my neck of the woods. 3x9 is fine. I like 3x9 I leave Lt on 3 while walking in just in case I jump something. On 3 I can focus quickly on a target . The only time I adjust higher is when sitting once I spot something or when target shooting. I normally target shoot 50- 200 yards with no problem with 3x9 either way its a wonderful scope you be happy.

I have used it on my AR-15 as well as a Remington .22 they worked fine you wont get one inch groupings but it will get you close enough to fine tune it to where you want. The only issue is the laser is very loose in the barrel and falls out. So as long as your not shooting down a hill you will be alright.

I have this scope on my 223. It is a 2nd focal plane reticle and the mil dots are only at the correct spacing when at 9x magnification. The 9x position is noted on the zoom dial with a small dot. I drew a 10cm grid on a board at 100 meters to verify. 3.9" at 328'.

RR, I found that you have to determine what distance you want as your target point. Plus, I found that the scope that comes with the rifle didn't do the job very well and I broke it trying to get it to get on target, not only for distance, but, also for the left and right setting. I bought another one, not expensive, and raised the rear sight up by about 1/4 inch on the rifle. My target point is about 250-300 ft.. Raising the rear sight allows for the ability to tune the scope to that distance without breaking it. After having done that, the accuracy was maintained even shooting about 2-3000 rounds in it. I also found that if I put my pellets in lubricating oil, the speed and distance are greatly increased. I found that, at a distance of about 50 feet, a pellet will go through an inch thick pine board. I am enjoying the rifle, I hope you will too! JimS

Its an extremely large scope. I have an Ar-15 and I couldn't imagine putting something this size on it. It depends on what you are doing with your AR though. If you have spent some money changing out the barrel and all the rest and want to snipe with it, this might not be a bad idea. I went with an Eo-tec on mine cause its set up for close combat, but it depends on your set up.

One inch,med to high and you'll love the scope. 55 and 62 grain with 1/4 inch groups and less.

My calipers measure 1 inch also. I've had no problems with the scope, but it's on a heavy .243 with a muzzle break. Recoil isn't much of an issue.

if your scope has 40 objective lens i feel the 1" mount will be to high it needs to be as close to the barrel as possible for beter adjustment from scope to barrel sighting for point of impact.

Yes no problem. P have a 3-9X56 that I put on multipul pellet rifled and my 30-06 n the pellet rifles have killed scopes because the forward them backward recoil they make so ur 22 mag or 17 HMR should be right on

personally I used a redfield revenge 4-12x42 on my m44 and a leopold 6-18x40 on a friends 91/30. however you WILL need to aquire a bent bolt for either one of these scopes and minor dremeling was required.option #2 is to put a short eye relief scope on and leave the bolt factory.also it all depends on what you are trying to do with the weapon. weather you trying to shoot 50 yards or 500 yards will make a big difference on scope size and type.
