Scout scope on a Ultimak


Recommended Posts

Whats the consensus on puting a LER scope i.e. Leupold/ Burris scout on the gas tube as far as longevity. I have no problem hitting man sized COM at 200 yards with irons, but shot a friends AR with a scope and was easily hitting a 6" popper at 200 yds. No side rail.....

Irons on an AR15 are good for a 12x12 plate at 500 yards if you do your part.  I would imagine that a well put together AK could easily hit out to 300 yards and maybe 400 bagged and some serious Kentucky windage.

I think I should be able, with proper fundamentals hit at 300 yards with irons with my Saiga 223. Havent had the chance yet. But the question I meant to ask was how a magnified scout scope would hold up mounted to a Ultimak. Im sure I could tighten my groups up scoped.....

Use the side rail or get one of the quality railed top cover options such as TWS. Ultimak is about maxed out at mini red dot sights. I have seen very few people use one for even a scout type scope. You may be able to do it, but seems like a terrible setup for eye relief.
