Hello all.

I was a wonderin if anyone is using the sbove scope on thier M1A/M14?

My plan is to use the hog scope with a set of low slung quick detatch rings sittin on top of an ARMS18 split rail mount.

Now for the questions?

1. Eye relief?
2. Cheek or chin weld?
3. Pig plex reticle: How is it working out with 168gr 308 fodder in patcular?
4. Other impressions?

Thanks for lookin.

Looks like there are 2 types on your link, but the VX Hog 1 inch tube looks to be the one I'm interested in.

Leupold 1-4x20 VX-1 Hog Scope

The above is the exact model of interest.

My plan involves a set of quik release Leupold "low" rings that should provide for 1/8 to 1/16 in clearance of the rear sight aperture when she's bottomed out, and off of the ARMS mount.

I was able to this before, but with a different scope and rings.
The stock will be USGI synthetic. Rifle is a M14S Norinco receiver custom build.

I like it, the 2nd one in my link has an illuminated 'fire dot'.

Keep us posted if you get one.

Will do.
The illuminated types are interesting, but they didnt meet my weight and price restrictions for this paticular project.
