Check your gas rings?

 

Anyone have any recommendations for a decent A.R. scope under $250.

 

Gas rings are fine.... the bolt lugs doesn't rotate into the camber as I release the charging handle, it'll strip a round off the magizine and load it but the bolt lugs would hit the barrel and feed ramps...

 

The bolt did NOT push the round fully into the chamber seem like the rotating mechanism of the bold head isn't smooth enough to move freely try to sand down the head shaft a bit to see if that help

 

Not the best but will work on the ar

 

sounds like a head spacing issue

 

This is what I was thinking of getting @neegdogdig

 

Currently starting my build. Ordered a 80% lower already and want to get this

@bluedegeon what are you building the a.r. for? Planking ,hunting, long distance target shooting?
Try and get a scope related to what you're building. If any of that helps....

 

I got a Vortex Strike eagle, close to 4 bills though, made for fast accusations in quick situations and bullet drop compensation good out to 400 yds. So far I love it, haven't zeroed it though... it's made for 3 gun competitions for quick shots, designed to always fit the shoulders of a man sized target no matter how you zoom. Center body of mass.

 

My purpose is designed for hunting/self defense, such as boars and Coyotes.
It's cool how the sizing of the reticle changes as you zoom, so it'll always be the size of a man size target and the bullet drops are the same no matter what.
1-6x24

 

Just try not to think about the price when you shoot. I hunt so glass is very important...

 

Nikon prostaff are pretty good.

 

@Bchengy isnt the prostaff for more rimfire? Im not sure thats why i was looking into this one

 

That Vortex looks clean. I've always heard thats a very reliable brand

 

@Bchengy what you think about the Vortex Crossfire II?

 

Just for target practice and fun I guess. I used a acog when I was in the Army so its familiar to me lol

 

AR 15 is more like a combat weapon typically it not for hunting but still see some use the gun to hunt wild pigs and cayos it's not a very accurate gun compare to 30.06, 270 wsm 308 or 7mm but still a capable of taking wild animals in short ranges

 

It's a simple version of mines, and I think it'll work for like if you want a reliable red dot with a true 1x power.

 

My dad shoots a .270 win, I shoot a 30-06 sprg, my 5.56 for boar is just another reason to have it. Lol
