    I've been down to see Digit and his products.

    I'm also going to have a look at Delta Sectors products.

    Been looking at this recently.
    Colt Competition CRE Expert AR-15 Delta Sector NZ

    and been looking at these optics as a starter.
    Bushnell - 4.5-18x 40mm

    What do you think?

    Cheers

    Unless you're planning to "Varminate" with it, I'd suggest less power on the scope.
    I started with a 4.5-14 and it was too much personally for anything other than rabbits and hares.
    Couldn't hit a goat in close scrub - just couldn't see it!

    Cheers Gerbs.

    Yeah 4x in thick scrub isn't the best.

    The goats I'm intending to shoot at will generally be in the 100 to 500m range.
