    Primary Arms 1-6 scope

    https://www.primaryarms.com/Primary-.../pa1-6xrbd.htm

    Marshall came out with what I think will be a winner for the entry level optic market. I got to play with this scope on a friends rifle at last weeks match. The reticle was good and easy to use. The illumination was not daylight visible but the reticle was bold enough that it could be used quickly. Marshall has always sponsored the matches we have hosted up here. He stands behind what he sells. So if your looking for a 1-6 scope in the sub $300 market this one is it.

    Did the BDC reticle work as advertised or were you able to shoot at extended ranges?

    Its no 1400 scope. The clarity is no where near the same and the field of view is smaller. But for the $300 or less market its the best I have scene.

    I'm taking mine out Thursday. This is my first variable optic so I won't really have anything to compare it to though.

    My PA scope just started to give me problems. The eye piece developed a rattle, then some internal part came loose(fell down and is bouncing around) and can see in scope. Still holds zero. Never had one problem from their red dots, but the scopes (for me at least) I was less than impressed. BTW warranty for the scopes was for a year and mine lasted 11/2.

    Marshall will take care of you even if it is past warranty generally. He is a stand up guy.

    Was out of warranty so I didn't even try. I guess I'll shoot them an email and hope.
