Yeah. Can on a gas gun makes for more cleaning and short term reliability. Wish I'd found a piston upper for the .308. Not sure anybody makes one.I have no SGE influenced purchases inbound yet, but there will be a tripod heading this way shortly. Now that I’ve slept, I’ve started to think about the various rifles that I shot and am thinking that I might swap the 3.5-14 BDX optic back to the AR10 from the M&P 15OR. It was fun to shoot the M&P with the Bluetooth optic on the various ranges of steel but I never got it beyond 300 yards successfully. It would do it but I just forgot to wrangle a spotter to help me get the rounds in there.
The Sig 716i with the PA 1-6x was not much fun to shoot. The heavy can on the front made the gun feel awkward to shoot and heavy as h3ll. Not to mention, it really ran dirty with the can. I’m thinking that I might go back to running without a can and more optic on the 716i and move the PA optic over to the M&P. Or, maybe invest in some better glass for the 716i and leave the BDX optic on the M&P. The 716i really needs more than 6x for my eyes to see out a ways.
