I have an early 90s short barreled M1A, which they called the Bush model. I've mostly used it with iron sights and occasionally fiddled with a red dot. Recently, I plopped a long scope on it with a B Square mount but felt like this was completely redundant to my 700 VTR in .308. If I want to precision shoot at long distances, I would use that.
So I started reading and came upon this » Mueller Speed Shot 1-4×24 » Mueller Optics and other scopes like it. I guess the idea is to combine red dot speed with some magnification for better accuracy at longer distances. I like the idea but I don't know how it will pan out in reality. I'm not getting any younger and neither are my eyes, so a little mag is great.
Has anyone used one of these? If so, how did it work out? What brand did you have?
I have other Mueller scopes and I can't complain for the money, but in this case, $250 is a lot to spend on a maybe. I can get cheaper ones but then I run the risk of my experience being ruined by the quality of the scope instead of the design.
Any "in-sight" would be appreciated
