Building a budget beater AR cabine that could be considered a truck gun. Found some good deals on budget optics over the weekend and trying to decide on the Vortex Sparc or a Bushnell 1-4 with the .223 BDC.
In my current AR collection, I have an Aimpoint Comp M2, ACOG and a Vortex Viper PST...so I get the fact that "you get what you pay for." Since I already have some higher end AR's and higher end optics, I'm ok with this being more of a budget build.
I'm leaning towards the Sparc since I really like the red-dot for quick aiming on a carbine. Then again, I'm intrigued by the claim that the 1-4 Bushnell can function like a red-dot on the 1x setting, but then has the 4x capability if I decided I needed it. Both deals I've found put the price in the same ballpark although I'd have to come up with a mount for the Bushnell.
Anyone use either of them and have any suggestions?
