First time at the range with new PA10

[Kodiak Cowboy]

Yes it's a red dot with a larger window. Kind of a poor man's EoTech. It's not something you'll traditionally find on a .308 rifle but I like the setup.

How pricy are Eo Tech?

The actual pic of the sight @10mmLife was referring to………

I'm not a pistol, AR, or Tactical gurue by any means. 90%of wut I know about all those areas I've learned from all you guys. LR Bolt guns and LR optics are my bread and butter! I like to send it!

How pricy are So Tech?

Honestly an EoTech can be had for pretty close to the same price on sale. The EoTech is a true holographic sight (etched glass) where the Holosun is a traditional RDS red dot sight with more advanced features than a basic red dot.

I wouldn't recommend using just an RDS on your .308 unless it was pistol length or you had more than one .308

And the big auto loading PR's?ohhhhhhhhhh yeeeeeeeeeah!!! I'll take two miss!

Put me within and up to a mile of ***** with a Barret and a Schmidt & Bender riding on top of it? This Ukraine thing would be over with one squeeze of the trigger boys!!!!

Poison his vodka. It’d be over for him and general staff by nightfall

So the first time at the range today with the PA10 And over all Im Pretty happy considering I'm new to the platform and optic on top of it. I zeroed with a 2 minute group at 100. Then stepped out to 300 and shot a six shot group a little bit over two minutes. 149gr Federal NATO REMAN so we'll see what happens with better quality ammo.

Nice job.

I really like my PA-10 also, and yours looks almost as mine does but I have the handguard with a smooth top with just a short pic section up front for the front BUIS.

I consider mine as a good DMR back-up to my LR .308 bolt guns.

Thankyou, much appreciated!

Pretty pricey. ($550 - $800 ish depending on model)
Not sure i'd put one on an AR-10 platform but to each their own. Would ultimately depend on how far you plan on shooting. I'd probably just put an LPVO on it.

Oh I was just curious that's all? All my rides are set up proper! Hell the optic I have on my new ride now is a low power variable and it was $600! MSRP $500!

They are nice, but if im dropping $500-800 i'd rather it be a nice scope instead of a 1x red dot or holographic sight.

They do have a few in the $350 ish range also.

Yeah no kidding! I'm not paying 800 for a frick'n red dot! I think I paid around 275-300 for the Vortex Venom 3MOA Red Dot on my SOCOM

 

[Kodiak Cowboy]

Nice rifle @Kodiak Cowboy !

I have a couple AR .308 rifles myself and they are a blast to shoot but it can get pricey real quick.

I have one of the AR .308's rifles equipped with Holosun 510c RDS. I shoot the rifle out to 200yds with the 510c to hit a steel silhouette targets.

This setup is good for “minute of badguy" at that range.

That's awesome! Minute of Bad guy!

That's one of the many reasons I set up My PA the way I did as well. A back-up to my LRP also in .308. Id really like to get a 6.5 CM or 6.5 PRC, or maybe something else along those lines, but probably never will. I'm just fine with the LR performance of the .308, besides, I'm not a good enough Marksmen to send any .308 load down range to it's full potential, but I'm getting better! I am however in the process of saving up for the time I bring home a Barret or something else along those lines in .50 BMG and a S&B optic. I'm also looking at the Black Widow. With a little bit more schooling and practice. I think I could make marricals happen at the range with either one of those bad boys! I've been told by a couple Instructors I'm a natural at the bench. Now I don't know about all that! However, it was a pretty humbling experience to hear them say that to be quite honest! I said "yeah, naturally full of s**t!" . Thanks again for all your Info and support you provide to us here on the forum! Shoot fun shoot safe, and shoot straight!

These days you can step into an ACOG for about a grand.

Ok, here we go again with the acronyms! Excuse my ignorance, but what's an ACOG?
