    Truth be told, I do think I could do better than the EoTech. I have looked at the T-1, and really may go that route, when funds allow. But, I just can't get over that 4 moa dot. The EoTech's 1 moa seems large enough most times. Do you have trouble with the 4 moa dot on small targets, say, at 100 yards?

    Oh, the range report: as expected, it functioned like a top with my reloads and some PMC. I only had time to zero it, and burn 60 rounds, but will try to get to the range in a few weeks, and get it warm.
    Yeah the Aimpoint Micro T-1 actually has approx a 3.2 MOA dot.

    As for hitting targets at 100 yards with it, the T-1 is retarded easy to use at that distance. Here's a vid of me shooting at a man-sized plate at 100 yards unsupported. Notice my rate of fire isn't exactly slow either, as soon as I reacquire the target I engage. I'm also shooting into the sun at dusk. Like I said, it's retarded easy at 100 yards:


    In this one I had to take my cheek off the stock a couple times b/c I lost the target in the sun:


    FYI, I'm shooting my new BCM 16" middy (ammo was PMC 55gr)... LOVE this gun!

    USMC03 also has stated several times on this site that he routinely shoots steel at 400+ yards (I think around 425, but I can't remember the exact number) supported with a BCM and aimpoint T-1, and on a bad day with wind it might take him 1 or maybe 2 rounds to get on target, but once he makes his first hit and figures out his hold over, he drills it repeatedly. I believe it's a 12" plate he shoots at too, but I could be wrong.

    In other words, the T-1 is good to go, brother! As is your new BCM! Congrats on your new rifle

    Semper Fi,

    Paul

    I think you guys have convinced me. Hey, you guys are trying to make me spend more money, aren't ya'? I suppose I'll start saving now. Anybody want a nice used, but gently scuffed, Eotech 551.A65? Nice vids, RH! Off to an MFI course this afternoon, and I worked 12 hr mid shift last night. Better catch some zzzz's. Wish me luck!

    Sorry, I missed your question....
    14.5" BCM is on a Bushmaster lower (untill I get a BCM lower ) with MIAD and milspec stock set and H buffer, the other is on a Global tactical (CMT/Stag) lower.
