Giving myself an AR10 for Christmas. I'm struggling internally over how to go with optics. I like the idea of going with a red dot for quick acquisition and rapid firing (pigs) or a scope to take advantage of the range of the gun (deer).
Anybody have any personal recommendations either way or a suggested compromise between the two?
TIA.
Three options:
A 1-6 variable would let you use one scope for both quicker shots and higher magnification.
A scope, red dot and quality quick throw mounts for both would allow you to switch between the two depending on what kind of shooting you're doing.
The other, heavier route would be either irons or a red dot offset at 45 so you could use both without swapping optics or trying to use the 1x on a scope, like so:
