Review: Vortex SPARC

[Two Six Six]

Would the Vortex SPARC be a good starting optic for the 308 SCAR 17s?

[rescueswimmer]

You could use it but with the legs of the .308 you would be doing a disservice to the rifle. If your just punching paper out to 50-100 yards then you would have no issues with it. Allot of people prefer at the minimum a 1-4x optic with some using 2.5-10's with a mini RedDot like a burris fast fire mounted at an angle for the CQB distance shots.

Hope this helps

Wow! Ordered the Vortex SPARC late last week and got such a great price ($179.99), I felt the need to pay for the shipping costs. Quickly got an email from 3 Rivers Precision after ordering that advised me they were refunding my shipping fee and shipping for free. Brian L. at 3Rivers Precision exchanged emails with me as I thanked him. Great guy!

Got the optic the day before yesterday and I am impressed. Well made, lightweight, clear and comes with a mount and spacers that allow for varying mounted height selection, two batteries, and a 2X magnifier. Optic appears and feels rugged and long-lasting. Lots of great features! Get one while the price is right! The price point is quite surprising when compared to the quality of the optic. I would be willing to pay a great deal more for this product. This is an optic my friends are drooling over as they inspect it -- I expect several new owners of the Vortex SPARC in my circle of acquaintances. Well worth it and the 3Rivers Precision customer service is world class.

Thanks again Brian L.

Will it stand to .308 recoil?
