I am really struggling with LPVOs
I have a couple guns with Accupower 1-8s on them. But honestly ina, having a harder and harder time justifying their use.
My first problem is the weight. By the time I add even a lightweight mount this thing is 2lbs. That is a lot of weight to add, even when positioned further back on the rifle.
Secondly I am a lot slower with them. As strange as it sounds I am faster with my ACOG than I am the LPVOs. Since I do almost no shooting past 75-100 yards the longer range advantage they offer really isn’t there for me.
Am I missing something, or am I really just trying to make a square peg fit in a round hole because it is the new hotness. I kind of feel like I would be better off with a couple magnifiers on my aimpoint micros.
