[QUOTE="SevenSixTwo, post: 1070312, member: 11463"] I didn't see an optics forum so I decided to post this question here since it pertains to my rifle. I am in the market for a scope to put on my FAL and I am kind of torn between three options. 1) I really like the Burris 2-7x35 with the ballistic plex reticle. It is very user friendly with the 7.62 and utterly simple. However it is just a hunting scope and doesn't really have a place on a combat rifle (some would say), but a scope is a scope after all. 2) Russian POSP with a weaver base and a dragunov range finder. This scope has a lot of great options, the least of which isn't the built in rangefinder. Its illuminated, it comes with mounts attached to the scope (maintains zero better), and if my rifle ever breaks the scope could double as a club. However it was built by Russians and so has some odd quirks about it (if you adjust the windage a certain way the reticle actually moves...) 3)Suck it up and save for an ACOG...I know that the ACOG is great, but I like to go against the grain. Have any of you done something like this before? I know my FAL isn't going to be a tack driver but it is minute of bad guy out to 500 meters and want to put a scope on it that will give me some help out to that range, so I'm trying to avoid putting a really high dollar scope on it. Besides the ACOG, the only other pricey scope I have considered is the IOR M1 at DSArms Let me know what you think, and thanks for all the help! [/QUOTE]
