Looking for some advice on Rifle Scopes and Suppressors.

[parkernudell]

I am looking for some advice on optics and suppressors.

I currently have a Sig Sauer Cross with an 18" barrel chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor. I also have a Ruger American Gen II chambered in 7prc. I have a Leupold VX-5HD 3-15x44 scope currently on my Sig Cross. I am wondering if that scope should go on my Ruger 7prc or stay on my cross.

My cross will be used in Minnesota, and out west. My 7prc will only be used out west.

If I move the Leupold to the 7 prc, what scope should I put on the 6.5?
Or if I keep the Leupold on the Sig Cross, what should I get for the 7PRC?

I'm not trying to break the bank, I under stand that you get what you pay for, I am just not looking to spend Nightforce type of money for budget rifles.

I would also like some guidance for a suppressor that would work well with both rifles, that i can switch back and forth.

Thanks in advance.

I would recommend checking out the Optics forum and the Suppressor Forum. Both have multiple topics that should help you narrow down your choices a bit.

Otter creek labs make top notch suppressors

Sell the Leupold. Buy a pair of SWFA 3-9x scopes for your rifle. Get an OG 6.5 suppressor (it will work on both rifles) or Reaper, AB Raptor 8, TBAC Ultra 7, etc.

Edit - to be blunt, I would also sell the 7PRC.

You really don't get what you pay for.

The easy, simple answer here is to sell the Leupold and buy two SWFA 3-9s.

ETA: Q beat me to it while I was typing.

OG30, not sure that the OG65 works on a 7prc

It does. Just put a bore guide through it first to check it for yourself, but it has adequate clearance.

Good to know

What is on your 7prc now? What type of range do you plan to realistically shoot? Not what you wish or think you can shoot. The Sig is pretty set up now for most hunting.

For a very light weight not break the bank suppressor I like the Diligent Defense Enticer TI. Great suppression and you can go Plan B for mounting solutions between the two rifles.

Wow, I remember when you threw a little hissy - holier than thou- bitch fit when I posted a general question asking about bore diameter on the 6.5 can... now you come out with this... what a piece of work lol
