Simple question: What is the longest shot you have made with your Aimpoint?
AR = 500yds (Range 305 at Quantico), 4MOA Aimpoint M2 on my 10.3" LMT SBR suppressed and it took me 5-6 shots to hit a 14" steel plate with a 55gr XM193 round. Talk about some serious Tennessee elevation!
AK = About 135yds on a 9x12" plate with a forward mounted 2MOA Aimpoint C3 on my Arsenal SLR106FR in 3 seconds with the safety on (using American Eagle 55gr) from a low ready at the Vickers AK class. ![]()
“You’re a death dealing mother f*****”–Larry Vickers 03/11/07 to me.

200 yards, Aimpoint ML3 on a Colt 6933 (11.5" “pencil” barrel) on an 8" steel from prone using the magazine as a monopod firing XM193. Accurate enough to call my misses when I did something wrong.

800M, on a military pop-up range from prone. The magnifier is very helpful out past a couple hundred meters, but even with it the far shots were
unreliable.
200yds. 1/2 IPSC target @ South Hill Range with mixed results in failing light.
One of the primary reasons I opted for a Short Dot.
Wussy…![]()
500 and 800 meters, eh? How many shots did it take to get the proper “hold-over”?
Can we answer if we use non-Aimpoint red dots?
(I can hit an IPSC metric target with mostly As and a few Cs from 240 yards with my EoTech and I used to do it with an old Tasco PDP5CMP before it died).
250yds at a 12" steel square are the only measured shots Ive taken with an ML2 on a 14.5 carbine and a 2 moa ML3 on a 16" mid.
I dont count rock twacking for fun in the desert, even though that has been at longer ranges.
I still use Aimpoints with the 4MOA dot, but after seeing the failure rate nearing sunset with some pretty good shooters in prone, I decided there had to be “something better”.
With the TA31F, I rang it easily in LESS light than we shot the walk-back in, and it’s really the one thing I point back to as sealing the deal on a 1-4x for me.
300 yards at Tiger Valley with an ML3, 2moa on a Colt 16" HBar.
Variables are KING. That’s why I use a 1.5-5x for 3gun/Multi-gun! ![]()
Past 600M it took ‘several’ shots to find the right foliage patch in the trees at the back edge of the range for the sweet spot. Closer in it was just a matter of finding the right number of 4MOA dots to hold over ![]()
Permission given in retrospect for non-Aimpoint red dots!
the EoTech is a bit of a stretch, but I’ll allow it
Whew! ![]()
I shot a 3-gun match a couple of months ago that had 300 yard shots, but I took my trusty Leupold Vari-X II 1-4X20mm for that. And I still had six misses (of 32 shots 300 and 200 combined). So not only does that not count for this topic, but it also proves that I suck. ![]()
300yds standing with my 2MOA Aimpoint M3 on an LMT SBR upper with suppressor. First shot missed and the rest of the rounds after that found their mark.
Great AK set up that you have there. Not to hijack the thread but who makes the Aimpoint mount you have on there and the rail?
UltiMak rail with a OEM Aimpoint ring (it comes with the C3s).
lol, does a Trijicon reflex II count on a .50BMG QCB mounted on a vehicle? 2500m to a toyota Ute,(sports truck). 3x 2rnd burst to adjust on.
