Ultralight Ultralight Rifles

5x PA Microprism with the vertical spacer (no offset) was 9.5oz on my scale.

In regards to the swfa 2.5-10x32 UL (BDC version) I've had good luck with them. Very easy scope to get behind IMO with a very bright and wide field of view considering its small size. I've found a trick with the BDC/SFP combo that works for me... I use it like a poor man's dialing scope. Basically, the different power changes the subtensions of the reticle, which I use to make a custom dope chart. Basically, from zero to 600 yards there is a combination of zoom and one of the ticks on the reticle that I can combine (within 3 yard increments) to get me a precise holdover. It sounds complicated, but in practice I find it only a second or two slower than my regular dialing scopes.

My Shaw portless is doing alright with AAC 77 TMK. 1.5” is about average for 5 shots. Some of that is me getting used to the light weight and trigger. I did have one group about an inch not counting a shot I called as me.
Hoping as I get used to the rifle it can do a little better or I might need to load for it.
I did go 3 for 3 on a 300 yard gong pretty easily.

The AAC ammo has impressed me. I use the 77g OTM in competition to 500 out of my Geissele with good results.

That said, I'm gonna be loading for mine. I have a ton of primed 223 brass from my High-power days that I need to use.
