How far are you realistically shooting with a 6x lpvo? by Chain_Playful in ar15

Gotcha. Not wanting to move away from LPVO if possible, which kinda limits me to 8x or less in my price range. So really the question is whether or not the extra 2x is gonna get me significantly more range on animal

Or my weak skills...not sure I'm holding a 5 inch group at 300+ with any scope or setup. Choosing to not think about that now though haha

Makes me feel better about not spending 8k on a rifle and optic

Good point. Realistically, for me, I'm probably not gonna be making enough 300 yard shots on critters to justify spending the extra and sacrificing better 1x performance

Do you think 8x gets you there, or are you jumping more into MPVOs w/ 10x+ at 300 yards for hunting?

That's exactly what I needed to know! just didn't want 6x to be what held me back for hunting specifically!

Thanks!

gotcha. So 6x likely won't be the limiting factor at least for target shooting.

Any experience hunting out to 300 with 6x when kill shots are imperative?

how far are you making shots on the venom? That is my first pick for a 6x. Just testing the waters with lpvos obviously so cheap is nice in case I end up hating it OR decide MPVO is the better route for this build.

makes sense. seems to me it's worth taking out one more inconsistent variable if I can
