What is the difference between Am Scope M150C &amp; the Am Scope 158C? Doing my research on this &amp; it seems only about $10 difference w a rotational head
1948189
I own a M150C-MS (MS=mechanical stage) and it appears the base is a different design compared to the M158C. The specs seem about the same. The M150C also has a 360 degree rotating head holding the eyepiece.

Jerry, I would say something like 85%-90% as bright but very clear. Not exactly the same but very clear and bright just the same. You will notice a slight spherical aberration just at the very fringes of the lens but only when you sweep it which is typical in my experience for these types of scopes. If I didn't dislike the Burris reticle so much I would have likely gone that direction but these scope are very nice for about half the price. I don't think you will be disappointed in comparison to Burris or other similar levels of scopes. I have several Burris hunting scopes and have looked through MTAC which is definitely brighter but not hugely different. Jerry, I would say something like 85%-90% as bright but very clear.

That was the same question I asked myself. So I bought both. The answer is yes the 3-9 X 40 scope provides a better image at low level light conditions. That is the scope I use on my gun.

I am very happy with the Tasco World Class scope. I have to admit I bought it based on the price point for the features. I also use it on a Benjamin Maurader .25 air rifle, so I am only using it for 100 yards or less. At 100 yards it is very clear and the mil dots are very useful because my air rifle drops about 6 inches at 100 yards (it is flat out to 50 yards). The optics are very clear and it has retained the zero I set about 8 months ago after many uses.I would recommend purchase of this scope without reservation.I have not used the Bushnell Trophy XLT Mil-Dot Reticle scope, so I am unable to provide a comparison for you.

Ok.....If you want the deal of the century you need to purchase this scope.....it's one of the best AR-15 scopes out there in this price range & when you use the company's SpotOn Ballistics Program (free on a computer, $4.95 as an Ipad or Android App) you'll see for yourself how great it is.....Oh by the way, Nikon Scopes have a lifetime guarantee.....Nuff Said!! Be sure to purchase the 1" P-Series Scope Mounts for this Scope.....http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B5F02ZW/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Also I think you can look up bdc conversions on Google. Its a great scope for the money. I've owned quite a few rifle and scope setups and this one on my tikka t3 has been my favorite and most useful across the board so far. Haven't found a use for the illuminated reticle yet but its cool to have.

Same thing. Just cheaper on amazon. This scope is awesome and the price on amazon makes it more appealing.

Mine came just like the first thumbnail you see with the flip up dust caps. Deffinately a good choice for a close/mid range optic. Crystal clear. I've seen scopes that cost more money that aren't as clear as these.

I have the Magpul CTR butt stock and find the SigTac scope to be a good match. I do a lot of shooting, both off hand and sitting. The sight picture is fast and easy to acquire.

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 purchased the M604 from Amazon for about $90.00 this past winter and love it. I am sure you could be satisfied with this. I am not familiar with the other unit you are considering, so have no opinion. The M604 is really powerful for its size. I was going to buy a second M604 but do not understand the tremendous increase in price. I would not pay the current $210.00 but wait until it drops back to $90.00.

Recoil PULSE on 22 AIR RIFLE is actually SHARPER and harder on scopes than 300 Win Mag rifle cartridge,, BEEMAN did testing on this in the 1980's,, surprising.. If memory is correct, they claimed their scopes lasted longer than even 50bmg vs 22 air rifle. FYI, free info is worth what it cost. THAT SAID: IF THE LIGHT DOESN'T STAY ON OR OFF LIKE IT SHOULD,, SEND IT BACK

The 10 dob is a great scope. However if you find your light pollution is to much and want to head to a dark sky local you would be better served by the c6 or one of orions mac cas goto scopes.

I don't know about the Marlin 60s; I have the marlin papoose; and i am in love with the Tech-Sight on my papoose the difference is day and night. The Tech-Sight is better than a scope any scope!!!

Well the BDC on this scope is set for the default m185 Full metal jacket 55gr Nato round. Yes barrel length will make a difference. You can either reload your own ammo and develop a load that works with your barrel to make the proper velocity or you can enter your ammo specs in on Nikons site and it will give you range adjustments for the dots on the BDC600. I recommend loading your own to stay true to the distant marks as much as possible. I load Hornady 55gr and ran a chronograph shooting different loads till I found the right mix. I have 20" 1/7 BCM match for an upper. Also get the mount for this scope makes mounting a breeze. Well the BDC on this scope is set for the default m185 Full metal jacket 55gr Nato round.

Not sure what the difference are between the two. I have this scope on a savage axis. 308. It is as accurate as they come. I can blow out a bullseye at 150 to 200 yards consistently. Eye relief could be a little better but it works for me.

I remember comparing the 2 but to me did notice glass difference to the point where I would spend the cash on the burris but people do like that scope a lot. I did notice different quality in glass when looking at the leupold 1-4 but it did not have a red dot.
