I am thinking I may go with a magnified optic on my 308 and was wondering if anyone had a 1x6 so I can see what the best eye relief positon is and than I can decide on a mount.

renton or lake tapps area prefered

You can try my strike eagle if you like. I'm up in Canada this weekend but should be free the next. It's in an aero SPR mount.

What type of 308? AR-10, or bolt gun?
I think a 1X6 is kinda weak for a 308. I would go 4X12.

I think you mean a 1-6x??. For someone who spends a lot of time criticizing the accuracy of posts and their respective forums you better make sure you post right or expect incoming criticism.

Stick with a red dot. You would have to hold the pistol up close to your eye with a 1-6 (not good with a pistol).

I have a strike eagle on my 300blk AR. it's a fine optic for a rifle. thought of it on a pistol is laughable.
