    For anyone that might find this useful, I sighted in my AR with its new Mark AR 4-12 yesterday using 55gr sp hornady factory ammo. Using a 1-7 twist spikes barrel. Absolutely rate the scope. Everything so far about seems really nice. Wish the 4-12s came with the firedot option but that's all good. So 4 close shots to get close on paper. 7 clicks up and 1 left from the factory. Out to 100 and lay down (just using my bag no bipod or anything) and this was my first 4 shots. First was the low one and I adjusted my rest. Then took the last 3. No adjustment needed - what a fluke. Quickly packed up and headed to the pub

    Cool, I finishing getting it, it is one of the couple over barrels models who will fit on my varmint barrel.
    Let's wait and see how it will go.

    these look to be well priced but take into account they aren't mil-spec as such no forward assist and has a integrated trigger guard plus no dust cover but may interest someone S&W M&P15 SPORT 5.56 NATO A or E Cat
