Hey, any recommendations for a good illuminated LVPO scout scope for an SKS?

Preferably with 1-6x magnification, but 1-4x or 1-8x, 1-?x is fine by me.

Needs to have illumination. If they don't make any 1 to __x scope, whatever the next illuminated LVPO scout scope would work. 1.5 or 2 to ___x should work maybe.

Any anything that uses AA or AAA batteries. I'm assuming there might not be such a thing that exists because I'm not finding anything.

Never seen an illuminated LPV that used anything besides watch batteries.

Ive also never used an illuminated LPV, I actually forget some of my scopes HAVE illuminations lol.


My experience with LPVs is most older leupold, or weaver hunting scopes. Ive USED other peoples "tactical" style lpvs, but never owned one....well i did have a crappy centerpoint, but lets just pretend that didn't happen........
Right now im kinda trying to find something for my Ruger American build.....

I looked through a bunch before settling on a Viper PST 1-6. For a LPV to actually work like a red dot when on 1X, I found the need for a bright single dot in the middle of the reticle. Those with busy reticles don’t seem to be bright enough for daytime use and are downright distracting.
