I am wanting to put this Millett 4-16x50 scope on my Rock River AR15. Is there anything I should know about this scope. Any other scopes to try?

one its a 30 mm tube, so get appropriate rings. Two this scope weights about half what your ar will. Unless this Rodk River is a target version. this is to much scope. It is big, and heavy and bulky. check out the nikon p-223 series scopes.

I use mine with an AR15 in .223 with a 20 inch bull barrel and the elevation marks seem to work well with the basic zero at 100 yds. I think this scope is not intended for .22. I use a BSA sweet .22 scope with my Remington 597 with good results at 100 yds to 200 with adjustments easy.

I have the same mount. It does fit. I've tried a couple different scopes and none feel tight to me. The stock is just short. I just use the see through iron sights. The scope itself is great for the price. I use it on my AR15. I've shot over 500 rounds. And no problems yet.

Hello Carol, My limited experience with the scope so far has been great, but I'm using it on an AR hunting rifle. It works really well as advertised. I would consider it fine for use on either the M1A or 700 tactical applications with no expected issues. My only recommendation would be to to order replacement BDC elevation dials for your specific or favorite 308 Win/7.62 NATO loads. The AR scope typically comes with the .223/5.56 dial calibration. You can order replacement dials from Leupold's Custom Shop, I got one for my 6.8 SPC hunting load. Hope this helps!

I have used mine on a Remington 700-308, it worked perfect, also on a AK and at 120' which was the longest warehouse I have access toafter sighting in the scope and then taking it to the Range it was grouping a 2-1/2 circle at 100 yards, i could not have been more pleased with the purchase. I have since bought Bore sights in (6) different Calibers and have been happy with all of them.

Hey Roy, I use this scope on my Remington R-25 308. after putting a couple hundred rounds thru it, the screws did back out. Solution: I put some blue lok-tite on the threads. This is a great scope for 100 yards plus.

this one will work but it don't hold up at all to more than a .22cal if I was buying a good one it would be ( http://www.amazon.com/Millett-1-Inch-30-mm-One-Piece-Scope/dp/B004YL6CS0/ref=pd_sim_sg_46?ie=UTF8&refRID=03QVC7Y7A59SQWVASVNS ) also go to Primary arms and look everything I have got from them has been very good.

I just recently purchased this scope and very satisfied with it. It looks great and figured why not go for the better scope. I have installed it on an ar15 5.56 just have to sight it in but I live in ny and it's cold here. Good luck.

I have one just like this on a M700 SPS .308. It is an amazing scope for the money. Holds zero real well. I would buy the base SWFA or millet recommends for it. You will NOT regret buying this, I own 3

In the price range, this is a good, quality scope. You might look at offers from Primary Arms, but IMHO the Millett is a solid scope with a great performer.

btw...my tasco world class3-9x40mm loses clarity with sundown or lower light. I forgot to note this point in earlier comment. it's a damn good build and buy for the money (51.99) but, more demanding purposes will require a much better scope. p.s. this would not be my combat scope on an ar15 either.

I have packed a Tikka 308 bolt riffle (43") and an AR15 both with traditional scopes. I have packed two AR15's with traditional scopes and adjustable stocks. They fit, but it's tight. I'd guess you have a little more room to work with since your AR15 has a red dot site. My objective lenes (i think) are 32's on the ARs and 40 on the Tikka.

Quite frankly, I wouldn't buy one. Actually I bought 2 and returned both and bought Millett 4-16x50 Illuminated Tactical Rifle scope. You get what you pay for in this case. The Barskas could not hold on target from one shot to the next. Wasted time, money, and rounds trying to get it right but was a waste of our time. The Milletts (never heard of the company before) I believe is manufactured by Bushnell and is an excellent scope in my opinion. I hope this helps. PS: I hate to bad mouth a product, but this was my experience.

Im sorry i dont know . They sent me the wrong scope and i got my money back. Sorry. What rifle are you looking to put a scope onrifle are you looking to put a scope on?

Well yes and no. It is a really good scope. (bright, clear, turrets click well and seem to be consistent). The scope will work on all of your rifles well. But... the calibrations on the elevation turrent care calibrated for the balistic data of a 55 gr 223 bullet (hornady a-max). So you will have to ignore the marked elevations and go to the scale on the elevation turret. I shoot 77 grain sierra and 75 grain hornady match bullets and they have different trajectories than a 55 gr bullet. It really isnt a problem you just have to come up with a dope sheet just like you would with any other scope. I have been happy with the scope and feel it is a good buy for the money. It is designed to work on top of an AR and I would recomend Rock River Arms excellent scope mount as well.

Yes you can. I was surprised to see my negative review was not on the product page for this scope. I sent 2 of them back. Would not stay zeroed in. Then I bought 2 (made by Bushnell) Millett 4-16x50 Illuminated Tactical Riflescopes (30mm Tube, .1 mil Click), Matte and am completely satisfied. Beware, hope this helps.
