I enjoy working up my .223 loads for (somewhat) accuracy.
Standard 16" AR platform... so not a competition precision shooter.
With my RDS 1x and a good few sand bags, i can get some groups down to about 1.75" at 100 yards. I try to use a very specific spot on the dot to choose my POA.
At this level I do notice accuracy differences between loads and have found a couple I am happy with.
I am considering an entry level scope. Many come in 1-4 or 3-9.
I do shoot 3 gun, but will use the RDS non-magnified for classification reasons. I don' think i can use a 1-4 on 1x and get away with the bottom class.
I test my loads at 100 yards, and shoot steel out to 2/300 with the current RDS. If I am using primarily for this purpose, should i stick to 1-4 or is the overlap stupid, and I should just go 3-9.
Cabelas does have some cheap(ish) 3-9. I also saw a Nikon BCD specifically for 223.
15% chance i'll take it coyote hunting. Have a buddy who wants me to go with him.
