re: Best scope for a tactical rifle?

Get a Tasco or NCstar. They are just as good as those expensive brands. I mean your not in the special forces right.

I think I might even buy a Hi Pernt before putting one of those hunks of shite on my rifle (I know your comment was a joke though). CP3 had an NC star red dot on his gun just fall apart after about 10 rounds through an AR. If it can't handle the recoil of a 223, anything larger may cause it to explode.

For the OP, who I agree is quite indecisive, I would suggest a mid to low power scope by Redfield or Leupold. They're actually both made by Leupold but the Redfield will come at a slightly lower price point with decent glass. They're quite affordable and will serve you fine. I have a 4-12x by 40mm Redfield on my 20" AR and it's been a great optic for me.
