1-4 help needed

[everready73]

I would go Steiner. Another option would be Burris XTR2 1-5 that is in your price range. Have other reticles and styles as well. These are built like a tank, but they did just announce the XTR 3. Not sure when those will be out though

Garand Thumb had the Steiner and said he was going to do a review but never did.

You can find some great deals here now and then on new and like new scopes. https://www.m4carbine.net/forumdispl...mp-Mounts-(EE)

Do you have one. It looks interesting

I don’t have this one. But a lot of folks I trust on optics gave it a thumbs up. I have an older TR24 as a 1-4, and it’s still working quite well for my uses.

I have an XTR 2. great scope. would love to see a XTR 3. Steiner is an 1in shorter and going on 11.5 in upper i thought it would be a better fit.

how close are the Burris xtr2's to a true 1 power?

Very. I like the retical a lot. If Steiner had the same retical I would not even think about and get one. It's a precision eotec.

I’ve had an SWFA 1-4 SS for a little over a year. Probably could do without exposed turrets on a 1-4, but I like it a lot and think the reticle is well thought out.

Prepare responding reminded me, this thread might have some info that will help you.

As others have said, it is close, but it is noticeably not 1x.

It is also about 1/2 pound heavier than some of these other options. I like mine for what I'm using it for, but wouldn't want to carry it around for hours if you know what I mean.
