1x riflescope

[RockAndSage]

Well after further research, (recommended by a friend)and this thread I decided to go against my beliefs. I bought a trijicon 1x rmr 1 moa sight. I went with trijicon for its history with reliability vs Leupold. No elevation turret, but I shot it out to 100 yards last weekend. I shot 2 different groups 2 and 3 shot groups at 100, the groups where between 1.25”-1.75”. I didn’t bother to measure, visually the groups looked great for a muzzy with a 1x aiming device. I’m hopeful to be practicing out to 300, and be hunting with this setup at 200 yards or less.

Those are pretty bulletproof overall, and have great battery life. I have one on a pistol of mine. Only thing to watch out for in using it as a field gun, especially if there's any brush or snow you're going through, is that the laser emitter is open, and can get blocked with debris. Not a major issue, but definitely something to be aware of. RMRs have been popping up more and more on dangerous-game rifles in Africa, so you're in good company.

You can't go wrong with an RMR.

That great to hear!

Thanks for the advice, i definitely watch out for that. Yes I seen a YouTube video, where a guy had one in Africa on a hunt.

I have one that I bought years ago for my UT Elk hunt. It is pretty good as 1X scopes go. Another good option is an old school weaver.
