Re: Scope setup for 3 Gun

Thanks Bob! I called LaRue today to talk about optics and they suggested a setup with an offset T1 or H1 and a Nightforce 2.5 - 10 x 32. I like this idea because I would have the ability to shoot longer distance for both hunting and competitions and still have the CQB. However this is a LOT more money! Would this be legal in 3Gun? Also, where can I find the rules for 3 gun? I can't seem to find a standard?

Thanks again!

Scope setup for 3 Gun

I just ordered a LWRC M6A3 and am looking at scope options. I am planning on starting 3 gun matches and need some advice from the gurus. My thoughs are the following set up:

Aimpoint Comp M4s w/ LaRue Tactical QD Mount
Aimpoint 3X Magnifier With LaRue Tactical QD Pivot Mount LT649

From my neophyte view this sounds like a perfect setup. Move the 3X out of the way for CQB then flip it back for long range work. This would also be a good setup for the other uses of the weapon.....self defense and varmint hunting.

My one concern is if the 3x magnification is enough for longer range shots? Would I be better served with something like Nightforce 1x4 or Trijicon AccuPoin 1x4.

I know I can't have everything in on package, but I am thinking the Aimpoint comes close......only problem is the $$$$ :banghead:
