I just boresighted my 308 at the recommended 25 yards. When I go to the range tomorrow, can I try shooting at 100 yards or should I start closer?

Definitely 25 yards. It took me 10 - 15 rounds to zero in at 25 yards. Boresighter is just gets you on the paper at 25yds. general

I would fire at 100 yards, Michael. But I have been bore sighting my firearms for years and I have had good success. Try it at at 50, see where you hit, then move accordingly. Happy shooting!

Twenty-two caliber holes are visible at that distance, but can be difficult to see depending on the color/contrast of your target. I find the holes easy to see on white, but difficult to see on black. Shoot-and-see targets would not be a problem at all. I would say 100 yards is about the limit for that small a caliber though.

It's ok but I would recommend upgrading to a different scope if you're planning on shooting from 50-80 yards to get more zoom, but for shooting between 10-25 yards it's ok. The stated max range on the scope is 100 yards but it is hard to see small objects within that distance using the scope that comes with it. The clarity of the scope after zooming in at about 6x is blurry and useless.

My scope works fine. Anybody that wants to shoot further than a few hundred yards with a .223 should maybe get a more powerful rifle and scope.

1 inch clusters at 100 yards no problem. Will go much further. Big game deadly at 70 yards and under.

I have mine on a Remington 700 in 308. At the range I shoot out to 700 yards. I do have a problem with mirages at that range. On an AR15 this scope is over kill.

I use the scope for target shooting. Low power vey clear at 25 yards, but gets a little blurry as you increase power at that range. At 100 yards all powers are very clear for general sighting. Have't tried on small objects past 25 yards tho.

Depends on the game? Small game like squirrels,rabbits,raccoon's,and birds.Yes! Medium to large game like pigs,boars,deer,bears,and humans.No!Its accurate as is at 25 yards with a scope or red dot 50-75 max.If your looking for something to hunt small-medium game i would suggest Benjamin Marauder .22 or equivalent .22 or higher P.C.P.(precharged pneumatic) rifle. Any questions dont hesitate to ask? Sincerely,Mr.Vreeland-AkA: (The Stach) ;})

I shoot a 308 out to 200 yards and I can see the holes pretty clearly. It takes a minute or two for your eyes to adjust, after that you can see the holes clearly, both in black and white portions of the target.

That is a great question. I zeroes mine at 100 yards and I am struggling to hit a 12 inch metal gong at 200. I am not sure what is going on because I am dead on at 100 but moving out , I can't hit the broadside of a barn. I am shooting an ar-15 standard size barrel and fmc rounds. Nothing fancy. I can hit the 200 with iron sights so I don't think I am the problem. Good luck

I did mine at 20-25 yards. I took the scope off, however, and just use the iron sights. I bought this to eliminate a skunk infestation on my homestead. most of my shots were under 20 yards and at night. I mounted a tactical flashlight under the barrel and preferred to use the iron sights as it gave me better visibility of the area around the target should the target move and I have to use a follow up shot.

No problem seeing your shots at that range. I can easily see .308 at 300m with this scope.

No. Not that I can tell. The instruction papers says to bore sight at 25 yards, and mentions no boresighting at greater distances. Of course, I can get my bullets on paper at 25 yards without a bore sighter. I would suggest going on cheaper than dirt and getting the more expensive ones. We only get what we pay for.

IDK! Only shoot about 100 yards at the most at the range I go to. But at 100 yards you can see them. We just go and tape them over and continue shooting!

I would recommend this scope. I use it on a .308 and it holds under a 1 inch group at 100. I've also shot out past 400 and had equally accurate results. The reticle is very crisp and the magnification covers a good range.
1704113
Yes this gets out there at 300 yards. I use it for 300 yards and it perform pretty damn good hell you cant beat the price either. Oh and i shoot from .223 up to 30-06 and all is visable at 300 yards. Hope this helps your out in your choice.

I'm shooting at a 100 yard outdoor range, so it's not a problem for me at that distance. Can't vouch for beyond that. Most shooters I know use a scope for beyond 100 yards, and a red-dot like Lucid's HD7 for CQC and less than 100 yard engagements.
